Seems like it wasn't entirely a PC thing.

An infantry battalion commander sacked in the middle of a deployment with the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit, or MEU, was at least partially fired for allegedly using a term that could be disparaging to members of the LGBTQ community, Marine Corps Times has learned.
Following a vandalism incident during a port call visit by the San Antonio-class amphibious transport dock New York in Gaeta, Italy, Lt. Col. Marcus J. Mainz, the commander of 2nd Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment, allegedly used the term “****" or “****y” during a meeting with the 2/6 Battalion Landing Team leaders, multiple sources have told Marine Corps Times.
quote:
Corps officials have said Lt. Col. Marcus J. Mainz was fired May 19 over a loss of trust and confidence in his ability to lead.
Several Marines were charged with and punished for underage drinking while on liberty during a port visit in Italy. One of those Marines was also charged with vandalizing a construction site.

How do you figure that?

Holy shite. Imagine if any of these modern PC limp wrists spent just five minutes in the field with this marine.

That stuff happens all the time.
Marines get drunk and sometimes shite happens. That doesnt get a commander relieved of duty.

Maybe there's an undisclosed reason too.

He said the word "f****t" during a meeting and lost his command because of it.
If that isn't PC bullshite, I don't know what is.
Wasting time and energy trying to police people so they don't say "mean words" that offend women or the LGBTQ community makes our military weaker.

Anyway I can maybe get the first and last letter? There's a lot of possibilities for "****"...

Sexual orientation is a protected category in the US military. The way the military sees it, there is no difference in him saying **** or the "n word." He's been to the commander's course and should have known better. 8 years ago homosexuality in the military was a crime and punishable under the UCMJ. Times have sure changed.

Cant even say fig in the military. We're doomed
