Thanks to the Progressives, we have to allow homos to join the Corps and they will allow them to marry soon. What constitutes a “fake” marriage in a culture like that?

said this before and I’ll say it again.

The very first thing the our president and if we have power is to overturn this insane policy of allowing homosexuals to serve openly.

He or she can say there is lawsuits,
there was not a proper investigation into this law.
There has been many problem since this new law came into effect and under the advice of the Generals and others who serve then I am overturning this law and want a vote on it ASAP.

The next thing should be Govt health care to overturn.

Also PC need to be stopped, this crap of lesbians , homosexuals and others who take the service as a joke or a free college ride should stop.

We have many now who join the army, Navy etc and only join to get the VA, free college etc.

It is destroying our military.

I wonder ... these fellows knowingly defrauded the government - their employer - in order to collect housing allowance money; they lied .... honesty is still an important quality in the military services.

I can’t believe this makes the news. This kind of stuff happens a lot.

Noticed Cpl Vice had on a BAM tee-shirt. Haven’t seen or heard that ‘term’ in at least 20 years. For those who wondered what BAM means, it stands for Broad Assed Marine.

Well, once we break faith with our military, they will feel no compulsion to keep the faith with us. We must not decrease the few benefits we give them. This country made them a promise and we’d better keep it.

Particularly in the Marine Corps; depending on the amount, they should have been packing their DD asses off to Portsmouth Naval Prison.
