and if you asked him why he did what he did his reply would be along the lines of

I'm a Marine.

That's what we do.

Yep, but although you hate to lose this Marine from active duty, he's done his part and can serve as an inspiration to others.

Good for him, but there is no such thing as an EX-Marine. Once a Marine, ALWAYS a Marine. (except for dorks like MURTHA)
