"U.S. Army Ranger Cpl. Josh Hargis was lying on a hospital bed in Afghanistan, hooked up to a breathing tube with his right hand heavily bandaged when he was awarded a Purple Heart for his valor in the battlefield.
None of that, however, stopped Hargis, 24, from following military protocol and lifting his bandaged hand to salute the Ranger Regimental Commander who pinned the Purple Heart to his red, white and blue blanket."

Not sure man.... but either way I feel we ought to give that whole region a stern "Were leaving, but don't **** with us again" and then bring our men and women home.

Really love being a marine and serving for the country. Great brotherhood we have, meet great people, and people having your back.

Hopefully he has a speedy recovery.

Amen!

"Marines, like America's pitbulls.... we beat em, treat em like shit, barely feed em, and once in a while we let them out to **** somebody up"

Sorry that quote from Generation Kill came to mind....

Much love for you and your Marine brothers marines1.

Brother is a former marine. Hopefully you get your ass to college after serving and put that experience and $$$ to good use. Far too long our military men have been puppets for our gov't to play with. It's been better under Obama, but neither are exempt.

Mentioning Obama in a thread about Marines is like mentioning all the good work Satan did while lecturing to a group of Angels
