Needling the army is a fine art, too bad the same can't be said about the jibs the Army uses on the Marines.
yuck yuck know why they call um jarheads, because their hair cuts look like lids on a jar.....
A haircut the Marines stole from the Army by the way, from paratroopers during WWII. Marines trained with the first Airborne units and then formed, I kid you not, The "ParaMarines".
We kept the haircuts and the bloused trousers.
The liberalization of the Army has destroyed all it's great traditions, the fact that Marines fight so fiercely for their traditions is what makes The Marines "The Marines".

^^Madison Advenue can send me the check, I'll donate all but 1% to Navy Relief.
I will agree on the liberalization of the Army.
Too many careerist generals would either;
a) refuse to fall on their swords as a matter of principle or,
b) actively promote the liberal/feminist agendas that have destroyed our traditions.
I'm reminded of the great USMC general who stood up to enlisting Marines who already had wives and children. I remember all the hell he took and how he stood up to that pressure.
