The Navy (Marine Corps) never was a collection of sensitive liberals. HUOOA!!!

I hope the good marines aren't wearing just tee-shirts off base.

How do you give a Marine "sensitivity" training?

At full voice, and with a baseball bat:

"YOU (bop) WILL (bop) BELAY (bop) THAT (bop) FREAKIN' (bop) CRAP!"

You must also outrank the recipient and outmass him, as well. :-P

I seem to remember that someone very, very high up in the chain of command believes, and has publicly stated whenever the topic comes up, that Islam is the Religion of Peace. Maybe he thinks these t-shirts are not compassionate.

They mean in Kuwait or Qatar, places that when you go off-base you war civvies.

Most of the bases in theatre are army bases, hence PX. Everyone shops at these; Italians, Polish, Estonians, South Koreans, and any other coalition troops that are there.

How do you give a Marine "sensitivity" training?

Have him work on his breath control and trigger squeeze?

Badda bing!

The other dead giveaway is that all Navy messages are in UPPER CASE (I get about a half dozen a week). This one is in upper-lower.
