Would you have your picture taken, while in full dress uniform, with "I can't breath" written on some black tape stuck over your mouth?

Not supposed to make political statements in uniform.
Shouldn't be at a political rally/riot in uniform.

Every service member, let alone branch knows that’s wrong.
We were all recently reminded when the Female reserve airman decided to take a photo while breast feeding in uniform to be used in an article. We were either drawn to it as a reminder that it’s not appropriate to use your uniform for your social beliefs or because we wanted to see her tits. She was cute don’t get me wrong

There’s also a general DoD directive that covers all branches. Hope he enjoyed his protest.

Thank you, all around. I had just tuned the channel and bang there he was, a close up head shot, and the reporter was just finishing reporting it. The duct tape "looked" photoshop to me. I found it..., iritating

Served 8 years in the 90’s. Hell no. Not by choice. And for fear of repercussions for pulling some shite like that in uniform.
Posted on 6/7/20 at 6:22 pm to LookSquirrel
Pretty sure dude was already out of the marines. Not sure what the rules on that are. If I could find my dress blues I would stand next to him with tape on my mouth that says 'frick that guy'

She must have been a damn sight prettier than the few broad-@ss Marines I served with.
But this is exactly why soft-tails in the armed services undermines unit cohesion and purpose.

Absolutely not and that guy is a shithead, assuming he is even legit. His actions give the impression that he is not.

Absolutely not! 0311
