The Army has no tradition of referring to itself as “dogs.” Individual units do, but not the greater Army.

OTOH, the Marines long have embraced the “dog” iconography. The Corp’s official mascot is the bulldog. Their unofficial symbol is a bulldog wearing a campaign hat. And they even self-describe as “Devil-Dogs,” a term of endearment among Marines, dating back to WWI Germans referring to them as “Teufelshunde” owing to their ferocity and tenaciousness in battle.

A Marine would no more refer to an Army puke as a “dog” than he would address a fellow Marine as “soldier.”

And I’m sure the Marines turning her down would have had nothing to do with the prodigious caboose she was packing.

Shrillary obviously can’t keep her lies straight.
