Grooming Standards Relaxed in Marine Corps

In a surprising change of policy, the United States Marine Corps, arguably the most staid and traditional of all branches of the American military services, announced today that all grooming standards are being relaxed. From now on, U.S. Marines, enlisted and officers alike, will be able to wear their hair in any style they fancy.

Not everybody is happy about the new policy, especially many Marine Corps veterans. However, the commandant of the Marine Corps defends his decision, saying that increasing individuality will help to hone the warrior ethos and will result in more unit cohesion.

I found six problems with this clown's uniform and not being squared away.

The hair is the most obvious. That's one, and the others are---?

#1 - blouse too big
#2 - Medal on wrong side, wearing the matching ribbon above it.
#3 - his precedence of ribbons is all jacked up.
#4 - I think the son of a ***** is wearing a Purple Heart ribbon
#5 - his attitude needs adjustment. I doubt he's wearing it to honor anyone or anything but his own skewed views on the state of the world. I would have loved for someone with that attitude to be tied down and drug around with us in Iraq for a week. (tied down so he can't hurt anyone or himself trying to get away the first time he hears rounds cracking overhead)
