She was also the groundbreaker in destroying American history when she removed the Confederate flag from Statehouse grounds.
We are allowing the Marxist to systematically destroy us.
Yep- sets the state for Corporal Klinger and believe me, they will come in droves demanding their interpreted changes and insisting on ‘being who they really are’.
You're not saluting the man, you're saluting the rank turban.

Traditional regiments composes solely of Sikhs (or what have you), wearing elements of their traditional garb, is one thing, but this, in America...

Justices Uphold Curb on Yarmulke.
I don't know if that's still the rule today. But rules are being relaxed as our military becomes more "diverse."
In 2021, the Army changed its rules for women, permitting them to wear their hair long.
In a Changing Military, the Army Eases Its Rules for Women’s Hair
Which isn’t the mission of any marine…at least not yet
I’ve known plenty of Sikhs. Good folks. They’ve never shown any sign of being so confused or conflicted.
This guy is a trouble maker
I wonder if the FFL would tolerate this insubordination?
It is insubordination.
“What, does he want to carry a dagger too? Wear all white? Make himself a target for enemy fire?”
Sikhs do that?
Which is more important to him - serving as a Marine or wearing his turban?!
Nikki Haley is a Methodist.
“In 2021, the Army changed its rules for women, permitting them to wear their hair long.”
As long as I can remember the reasoning for having short hair was Sanitation. I guess the guys can now grow long hair.
IMHO, Everybody sports short crew cut hair, everybody.
This article neglects to mention that skihs have very long hair bound up in the turban.
I’m only assuming that this individual is/was not going to get a crew cut put a turbine over it.
Release from duty “for the good of the service”.
The Marine Corps is the “zero tolerance” service, with undeviating standards. No compromises, that way lies loss of discipline and dedication.
Both their greatest shining virtue and sometimes their curse.
I want a daily rum ration on sea deployments, just like the British Royal Navy used to get ( 180 proof).
Its communion in my religion !
It does not make me “sikh!” ( grin).
Our Military is now CIORRUPTED by DEMOCRATS!!
I generally hold Sikhs in high regard because of their strict moral code and generally high ethics. Sikhism is pretty compatible with Western values. This guy is a tool, and a leftist.
Does your comment also apply to Desmond T. Doss ?

“I can be who I am and honor both sides.”
The United States military only has one side.
What a sport.
You bet a current, active duty service man in his 20s, could beat a guy who got out of the Marines about 40 years ago?
I'd say most current, active duty Marines, could beat the "weak old asses" of most FReepers that are 60 + years old.
Grimmy's post said nothing about the strength of the Marine, only about his decision to want his own, personal uniform.
Do you think a mooselimb woman should be allowed to wear a burka while in "uniform"?
As far as your "creds" go, no one cares how tough you think you are, I know you are not tougher than my daily and bedside protection.
