[Saoirise]

According to this the DoD and the Corps has decided to trademark everything that has always been in public domain including the title of Marine!

Will they make folks remove tatoos with USMC or the MC emblem on them...

What Qualifies As A Trademark?

Any mark, logo, symbol, nickname, letter(s), word(s) or combination of these that can be associated with the USMC qualifies as a trademark.

Who Needs A License?

Anyone wishing to use the marks, logos and symbols of the USMC must obtain a license.

What If You Do Not Get A License?

All products must be approved by the Marine Corps Trademark Licensing office. Failure to obtain a license or approval would be grounds for the seizure of all non-approved merchandise bearing USMC marks. It also could result in jail time and numerous fines if convicted.

Reckon I'll have to scrape the Hard Charger U.S.M.C. tattoo off my right bicep, or my arm will be seized.

I was under the impression that I earned a license for that tattoo at Parris Island.

Making this applicable to Marines—active, discharged, retired, reserve, etc,not engaged in commercial business—gives the word “chickensh!t” a whole new dimension/meaning!!!!!

Yeah. Somehow, after facing down the Jihadist terrorists in the hellhole of Iraq or al-Qaeda and the Taliban in Afghanistan, I don't think these guys are gonna worry about whether or not they have the right to use the emblem paid for by their Brothers blood or loss. Give me a break!

[Chieftain]

Me and my Devil Dog sons show off our matching tats.

[Taxman]

FRom time to time over the past 51 years, I wish I had listened more carefully to those Marine Gunnery Sergeants when I was 17, and enlisted.

This is one of those times.

Semper Fi! Marines!

[444Flyer]

Chieftain, you made my whole day. Heck, you made my week!!! Please thank your brood for serving our nation. Outstanding Marines!

[Warrior Nurse]

Would you look at that steely eyed Marine Gunny in the middle setting the example for his two fine Marine sons.
I am proud to call you FRIEND and FELLOW MARINE
