Whatever happened to the Marines. July 12, 2013 4:11 pm bowser
“Marines steamed by loss of hot meal at Afghanistan base.” http://worldnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/05/31/18592339-the-drawdown-diet-marines-steamed-by-loss-of-hot-meal-at-afghanistan-base?lite
Those poor, deprived, demoralized, combat-ineffective bastards.
They’ve sure gone to hell in the last 50 years.  I’m sure they are going to lose the folks who make their beds, fluff their pillows, wash their dishes, wipe their noses and check under the bed for boogeymen, too.  It’s a damned shame.
Maybe they should withdraw the combat people first, and let the support folks feed the Taliban.  Good-will gesture.
