CBS and Gawker are now both reporting that

"Al-Sharef said two U.S. Marines sent to Benghazi when the clash erupted were shot and killed by the well-armed protesters."

Good to hear! Thanks.

I'm hearing from other Marines through the grape vine that the other 2 casualties along side the Ambassador were both Marines.

Can anyone confirm this?

No kidding. We're falling apart, and our "tolerance" and desire to appease the world are going to cost many American lives.

I'm hearing from some other Marines that ROE prohibited the security at...

It's Libya for God sake. If all we had was two MSG on duty there, then somebody's @$$ needs to get fired. It's probably one of the 'hottest' embassy locations we have right now. It just doesn't make...

Where were our Marines during the attack on our embassy in Libya yesterday? A U.S. ambassador was murdered, the embassy was overrun, and I haven't read a single report mentioning Marines, or any...

Thank you for the responses. I appreciate your time.

This is going to sound absolutely ridiculous, but my wife and I close on our home on August 20th - the Monday after I return from AT. Bad...

MARINES - I need some help. I just found out today that my billeting for AT is supposed to be paid on my government charge card.

I don't have one. I've never had one. I also don't have a personal...

Have you contacted a foundation of any type to setup a charity account so that there is a legitimate avenue for people to donate money too?

That would be great. I would definitely donate some...

Marine3451,

I did not give any advice. I simply stated the facts. Obviously MCIs are good for your career (on paper), but their influence in training and knowledge in regards to being a "good"...

Also be cautious if you have ANY... even a small, tiny desire to ever become an Officer. The OCS recruiter where I'm at has a NO tattoo policy. You'll get put on the bottom of the list.

Obama math.

MCI's, for the most part, are a waste of time... especially if you are also attending college. I would be willing to bet that less than 10% of what is read and tested is actually retained by most...

Does anyone know what the current process is for holidays while at MCT?

Do Marines in training get liberty? Leave?

Are they allowed to leave base?

What about Marines in sick bay or guard...

Next month we get to wear go-fasters with our cammies.

How come my signature is disabled?

I am still looking for some official announcement, but I was just informed by my Company's INI Training NCO.

Yes. It is effective 24 Oct per MARADMIN.

I'm not looking for protection during a CFT. LOL

I'm looking for comfort and light-weight.

Everyone on my Facebook has been recomending the Bates Light-Weight.

Also, how come my auto...

Is there a particular pair of Bellville's you like?

I'm getting ready to buy a new pair of badly-needed boots. Coincidentally, I'm also getting ready to run a CFT. I thought I my as well buy a pair that I could use as my 'CFT' boots.

Does anyone...

The "civilian" base ID would rid the decal, but still maintain some level of security.

Would requiring all non military to go through a background check (that they pay for), and get a "civilian" military base ID be too much to ask?

At least the decal added a low level of security......
