Marine Corps commandant has full agenda in 2016

We used to just talk about readiness and defeating our enemies on any battlefield we were sent to. Marines were expected to be Marines. Ready to go, first to fight. Either you fit into the green machine or it churned your out (I left after 4 years). We worried about living up to the exploits of those that came before us. Speeches today are laced with all of the hoohah sent down from on high to distract from the mission and readiness. It will become more and more difficult to be a force in readiness until someone snaps us out of the policy induced stupor of political correctness.
