So would anyone argue that the Marines are less capable now than they were 20 years ago?

As much as I hate to admit it, yes.
I feel like this administration made it a mission to take what has historically been regarding as America's most rigorous military branch (PSA I said branch. I know we have a lot of Delta DEVGRU SEAL/EOD qualified Rangers that post here) and make them as vanilla as possible to initiate change within the other branches of service.
I was in from 2006-2014 and saw a dramatic change from the quality of recruits that I went to bootcamp with to the ones who started coming in around 2011 or so. It sucks to admit, but the Marine Corps is rapidly becoming the same as the Army, Navy, Air Force, & Coast Guard.
