#1 NS, the point here is that, rightly or wrongly, when you take the oath of service in the US military you agree to obey the lawful orders of your superiors. Gunnery Sergeants and Colonels do not get to make policy and if they choose to break the rules, they are subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice. I hope that Gunnery Sergeant Maziarz and his accomplices become well acquainted with the inside of a federal penitentiary. There are right ways and wrong ways to do things. This is the wrong way.

#2 I do agree with your specific point, RWV. But as I said, it is wrong on a lot of levels and that is just one of them. I'm po'ed about all of them. And I can't figure out which I'm most po'ed about because I'm so po'ed. I need to hit the lav.

#4 Give him 6 mos or a stiff fine for the war trophy theft...(another stupid rule but still a rule)...commute the rest if a court martial board is convinced he acted in good faith w/the spirit of defending the constitution vice the letter of the law. The beaurocrats need to fix themselves & the admin mockery that's slowing down info sharing....people and their rice bowls.
