A repeat on the blog but well worth your time. Find a secluded spot and turn your speakers up high. This is the Marine Corps I remember... I wonder. Would Gunny Walgreen get a reprimand for doing this same school circle today?
I had the honor of scuba-diving with Sen. Glenn in Honiara, Guadalcanal. while there with a Navy mission honoring their Independence. He was all that and a bag of fucking chips! Just walking that beach with a Marine's Marine stepping over chunks or rusted steel from time to time, really brought into focus just what being a Marine was all about. No, I wasn't a Marine, but it sure made me appreciate just what it is that Marines do for a "job" Great speech Gunny.
The answer to your question is no. Gunny Walgreen would laugh at and then throat punch anyone who tried to reprimand, why do I know this you ask. Because it's Gunny fucking Walgreen. Anyone who has ever served under him knows he doesn't take shit from anyone, and he does everything he can to protect his good marines. This man is a legend in 3/8
out fucking standing.
