ATTENTION ON DECK - AN OPEN LETTER OF APOLOGY

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Marines,

"I have always tried to be as quick to apologize and admit when wrong as I am sometimes when I send one down range.

Well to that end Marines I would like to extend my sincere and humble apologies to Gerald Shaffer.

Recently I posted a thread and asked folks to take a look at some weird things being seen on his site. Now had I been objective and not let personal feeling come into play I should have and would have realized that he was moving his site and recoding some of his site. Instead I looked for the worst and pursued for some smoking gun allowing for some type of one upsmanship on him.

I was wrong. I allowed the blinders of personal dislike to cover the light of common sense. As I said to Mr. Shaffer in my email to him which I hope he will read, I spouted values and then marched right in the face of them.

To Mr. Shaffer I extend my personal apology and to the Marines on deck my humble apologies are offered to you also."

To OUR Corps:

Always a beautiful thing when a Marine realizes his limitations, then admits to them in front of his peers.

Down the hatch. No Whiners.

Some people have integrity enough to admit when they were wrong.

I'll drink to that!!
