So we no longer equip the Marine, we man the tech?

The Marine Corps adaptability is necessary for the changing world, according to the service’s new recruiting campaign, which launched online Thursday and will air Saturday during the University of Georgia vs. University of Florida football game. 


The advertising campaign, “Shifting Threats,” features Marines as they adapt to the more technologically sophisticated world in scenes that look to be out of a video game. The ad shows modern techniques like how Marines use and destroy drones against the backdrop of traditional Marine Corps missions like amphibious landings, humanitarian aid and disaster relief and infantry operations in harsh weather.

I almost feel sorry for these people.

They're walking a fine line and don't seem quite able to get it done.

On one hand they're trying to maintain touch with the past while they zoom toward a future that most can't recognize and even they have trouble trying to explain.

I continue to marvel at Marine Officers having to break down into professorial tones to explain this shit.

If it only makes sense to Think Tanks then your concept is probably trash.
