USMC has a knack for weeding out the good ones. It’s a shame. It’s why I got out. I didn’t stay in and fight for 17 years. So I’m not comparing myself to him. I can only tell my experience. I loved my active duty contract but I watched every single good Marine leader ahead of me and every good brother beside me get out or get forced out. It didn’t make sense to me because what we are taught and what the characteristics of a Marine are. He should not be relieved from duty because he has an ethos that will only truly benefit every Marine under him. The machine of the military at the end of the day is a machine, and it will spit you out like any other. Makes me sad. Sir has some strong convictions and I would serve under his command any day. That type of man truly gets it. Semper Fi
This. The majority of Marines are the corps to the heart. But there a few, in the officer corps, who are absolute deep state. I knew Jones. I am married to a marine whose father was a china marine. Can't stand what is happening.
Thank you for your service, brother. Everywhere you look you see "Support the troops". Like everything I have learned, there is corruption everywhere. I always had a "back burner" or just a thorn under the skin with fully supporting or being "all in". I knew there was some rot in there, and you are the first to confirm. I guess the duality of things is everywhere.
Again, thank you (and all the good hearted vets out there) for your service. We need to be better at supporting the good folks and stop being lazy and apathetic.
Thank you I only did my part and nothing more but seeing the underbelly of things is always hard to deal with
Yut
He should be processed out. He knew this before he made the speech, and he still did it. It is what makes it so great. Do the right thing, damn the consequences. I would have loved to serve under him.
Yeah he truly did what is right and it’s awesome. I’m sure he will not regret it. The military lost a good one. Just hate to see them go
