I remember the research I did when it first happened. Only the press from Canada, UK, and Australia, mentioned that the insurgents had recently adopted tactics of 'playing-possum' and rigging dead bodies.
Let's see how this is received. :p
It's now up to Marine commanders to decide what, if any internal action to take against the Marine.
OK... so they haul is a$$ to the front of the formation,
add a stripe
a few ribbons
a medal with combat 'V'
a letter of commendation
and a 96..
What's the problem ?? :marine:

You said it well sox, but the truth is the Corps will most likely just say, "Good job Marine".
I think the news people are the ones pushing this , just they always do.
The Marine was just doing what he was sent there to do. Promote him and forget it.

Outstanding there is still justice in my Corps and it has not changed since I left it. Now get the press out of there and let our Marines do what they do best kill our nations enemies.
