Warriors being led by old women. They are so screwed.

If you're out on a patrol, sure, wave and smile and make nicey-nice with the locals, but the second you take fire, all of that should go out the window. It should be kill or die, not second guess every damned action, every pull of the trigger.

When warriors hesitate, warriors die. This PC shit makes me think those at command level would rather see American corpses than jihadi.

It’s a pity our fighting men and women are being led by such fools as these.

"Warriors being led by old women. They are so screwed."

Well said. Right on.
But it's even worse than that - - the PC hacks in charge of the Marines are wringing their hands that enlisted Marines aren't ratting out their brothers-in-arms!

When he issued the new directives on ethics training, Conway did not cite those cases but did make reference to a survey released two weeks ago that found 40 percent of more than 400 Marines questioned would not report a fellow Marine for killing or wounding an innocent civilian.

I don't know what sickens me more - - that only 40% of Marines understand the meaning of "semper fidelis" or that Conway and his ilk are disappointed that 40% DO understand the meaning.
