Uncle Sam’s Misguided Children disgrace themselves

As goes the rest of the FUSA military, so go the Marines.

 


Disgusting. But it’s probably just as well, I suppose; if today’s Marine Corps had deigned this vet worthy of a visit from one of their own, they’d have undoubtedly sent along a Jarhead in his prettiest black cocktail dress and spiked heels, in full make-up. If Mr Thompson’s poor dad didn’t stroke out right away from the sheer horror of it, being confronted by what Wokester pissants have done to his beloved Corps would have put him on a rage-high that would last for the rest of his days. I’m with Billy:

In TOTAL there were only 589,852 MARINES to serve in WW2.

16 Million Americans served in uniform

Only a little over 500k were Marines

That means this gentleman is one of a very few surviving Devil Dogs Left

Shame on the Marines for blowing this guy off.

Fucking the local Jarheads -should- have a fucking parade for him…

WTF ever happened to “Semper Fidelis?”

Always Faithful my ass.

Indeed. I repeat: Disgusting. Disgraceful. Reprehensible. And truly, truly sad.

My sincere apologies as a Heritage America to you, Mr Thompson, sir. May you have a happy 100th birthday anyway, despite this unconscionable PC insult to your bravery, your legacy, and your personal honor. Always remember, though: Illegitimi non carborundum. Otherwise, they win. And that, they must never, EVER be permitted to do.

Well, we share a birthday. Pretty damn pathetic that the Marines can’t even acknowledge a 100 year old WW2 Marine veteran. I think I’ll find the local recruiter and pass this along. I bet at that level they’ll feel some embarrassment.

Barry

No email listed. I guess I’ll just call them.

Barry

OK, just read the actual tweet and it looks like the gentleman is contacting the local recruiting office in the town, so that will work I think.

Barry

Yep Mike, since 1953 🙂

The big 7-0 this year. Still ticking, still kicking.

February is the better month for babies to be born. It’s the hi IQ, good looks, and amiable personality month.

Well, 1 out of 3, maybe…

Happy Birthday Mike!

Happy Birthday Dude.

We are not worthy…

Aesop

Throwing the BULLSHIT flag at this crybaby. At his head.

If he’s got actual contact information, post it.

The Marine PR wing would get wind of this, and organize a fucking F-18 flyover and full dress parade right to his damned door, and his dad would be fucking inundated with so many Marine vets living nearby who’d drop in he’d need to hire the local PD for crowd control. If he posted a P.O. or PMB address, the USPS would have to hire additional shifts to deliver the metric fuckton of birthday cards his dad would get.

I triple-dog dare him to come forth with more than his whinging, and see what happens.

And I’ll put cash money up on the outcome.

“blew him off”? I repeat, BULLSHIT, gold-plated, and first class, and he’s talking right out of his ass.
I bet he runs and hides, rather than eat the Godzilla-sized shitburger he’s going to have coming when he has to apologize.

I bet I could make three phone calls and have every USMC retiree within 100 miles of his house on his front porch three weeks from yesterday, just for the asking.

Barry

What it says is he sent a message through the Marine Corp portal. That may well not have elicited a response. If you click on the tweet embedded you’ll see that tons of people weighed in to tell him how to elicit a response.

Anyone that read that little nugget and is a Marine should have responded at any level.

I’d like to see an F-18 flyover though, along with a visit from a current serving general.

Aesop

Noted.

I hope his son is as quick to apologize, and report on the actual response, as he was to wet his diapers the first time.

And for my money, 100 years old, and 5 WWII combat landings? Dude deserves at least the flyover and parade. Serving general? The Commandant himself should make a housecall, with the Marine Band.

Just to make the point.

“Thank you for your service” doesn’t quite cut it with some vets.

Barry

Agreed. And I’m quite sure he’ll get an appropriate response when the right people get the news.

I’m not sure how to check for updates. I don’t use twitter nor typically read it.

"America is at that awkward stage. It's too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards."
Claire Wolfe, 101 Things to Do 'Til the Revolution

Claire's Cabal—The Freedom Forums

FREEDOM!!!

"There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
Daniel Webster

“A slave is one who waits for someone to come and free him.”
Ezra Pound

“The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it’s profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.”
Frank Zappa

“The right of a nation to kill a tyrant in case of necessity can no more be doubted than to hang a robber, or kill a flea.”
John Adams

"A society of sheep must in time beget a government of wolves."
Bertrand de Jouvenel

"It is terrible to contemplate how few politicians are hanged."
GK Chesterton

"I predict that the Bush administration will be seen by freedom-wishing Americans a generation or two hence as the hinge on the cell door locking up our freedom. When my children are my age, they will not be free in any recognizably traditional American meaning of the word. I’d tell them to emigrate, but there’s nowhere left to go. I am left with nauseating near-conviction that I am a member of the last generation in the history of the world that is minimally truly free."
Donald Surber

"The only way to live free is to live unobserved."
Etienne de la Boiete

"History does not long entrust the care of freedom to the weak or the timid."
Dwight D. Eisenhower

"To put it simply, the Left is the stupid and the insane, led by the evil. You can’t persuade the stupid or the insane and you had damn well better fight the evil."
Skeptic

"There is no better way to stamp your power on people than through the dead hand of bureaucracy. You cannot reason with paperwork."
David Black, from Turn Left For Gibraltar

"If the laws of God and men, are therefore of no effect, when the magistracy is left at liberty to break them; and if the lusts of those who are too strong for the tribunals of justice, cannot be otherwise restrained than by sedition, tumults and war, those seditions, tumults and wars, are justified by the laws of God and man."
John Adams

"The limits of tyranny are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress."
Frederick Douglass

"Give me the media and I will make of any nation a herd of swine."
Joseph Goebbels

“I hope we once again have reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There’s a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: As government expands, liberty contracts.”
Ronald Reagan

"Ain't no misunderstanding this war. They want to rule us and aim to do it. We aim not to allow it. All there is to it."
NC Reed, from Parno's Peril

"I just want a government that fits in the box it originally came in."
Bill Whittle
