He knew he shouldn’t have participated in the protest.
He took his hardware off his uniform
He disgraced himself by doing that
He knew the rules
He broke them anyway
He DIDN’T get what he deserved
He should have been dishonorable discharged.
How can he get what he did and still receive his benefits when he was protesting against the very thing he was serving for? His peers are dying and he is wearing his uniform without his medals and protesting?
I am shocked at the Marine Corps for being weak on this issue. It is shameful!
It’s borderline treason if you ask me.
