I know you didn't serve, because my post went right over your head.
Hint: That's how the real men, who did serve, insult bitches like you.

Yeah, maybe that's it. I went to my recruiter's office 9/12/2001 because I was out of options.

Service members and vets don’t like should have would have could haves talking shite to them about their service

I dont think you understand the Commandant's role. His job is to be a force provider to COCOMS and as a part of that he must take into account readiness of materiel and forces. Is the Marine Corps, an inherently expeditionary force that is in a cycle of constant deployment, the best postures or suited for actions at the border?
Instead of automatically turning this into a binary for or against policy, look deeper at whether Marines are best suited for the work at the border (hint: they aren't) and whether he has a responsibility to highlight when competing requirements from DoD place a burden on his role to adequately train, man, and equip forces.

This
And this
Are spot on.

He needs to spell this out for you? What part of Marine Corps combat readiness do you not understand? Rotating units to provide border security does little to nothing to enhance the Mission Essential Tasks (i.e. readiness) of Marine units, and adds additional 'deployment time' to an already strained force
And this
quote:
When did he disobey the POTUS? Offering a sobering reality of fiscal restraints is something you don't want from the CMC? Budget shortfalls are forcing the Marine Corps to forgo essential combat training this summer that increases readiness and generates capacity to support global force management. We also are ignoring the $3.2B bill for Hurricane Florence disaster relief which is impacting readiness and the quality of life of our Marines and their families. I'm with his assessment.
Are spot on.

You do realize it because of those " ditch diggers" that you have the right to talk shite right?
Military can talk shite to each other but non military should stay on the sidelines with their mouths zipped.

You are seriously one miserable bastard. You have to be some sort of outcast or grouch of your family. One thing is for sure and there's no denying it is that you are indeed something much more terrible than either of those and that's you're a liberal.

In North Carolina at MCB Camp Lejeune, MCAS New River and MCAS Cherry Point you have damaged ranges, training spaces (classrooms), barracks, family homes, dining facilities, and recreational spaces (gyms, etc).
Here is one article; there are many, many others out there outlining the damages
