Grunts are getting a big boost in the Marine Corps' 2020 budget

The Marine Corps also needs to work on not running off people with some of the chicken shit policies and practices that run off the warrior minded among them. The Corps is not the Boy Scouts. You need hard men that might not always be polished but are effective on the battlefield. They might drink, swear, have too many tattoos, cut loose too much etc.

Glad to see the realignments and the reenlistment bonuses. Better to do as much as you can from within before trying to add more people.

Excellent news share Chief
