Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Castillo: The soldiers creed is gay and always has been It was created by a focus group in 2003. The problem with the Army is it is always reinventing itself. The USMC actually has history and self respect and honors its traditions. You have a tradition of being a knight with a flaming sword and slaying dragons?

They should hire that navy seal who beat those war crimes charges to make commercials.
I bet they’d be good. |

I would say that terrible recruiting ads reflects the current command climate.
At least it’s better than the “Emma has two mom” commercial |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By John-in-austin: You have a tradition of being a knight with a flaming sword and slaying dragons? They aren't as bad as the new Army commercials, but the new Marine recruiting commercials are pretty weak too. "Let's launch this amphibious assault into a smoky cloud of nothing." The lava monster commercial is iconic, and sold me on the Corps from the age of about 6. "If you prove yourself you can be one of us, get a cool ass sword and slay demonic beasts in close combat." Cool as fuck. |

It's a little disgusting. Had I known what I know today, I would never have worn the uniform. I didn't know most our wars were lies. I hadn't read MG Smedley Butler's shit. I was a dumb 24 yo who "wanted to do his part". I didn't realize that "part" was for bankers and industrialists.
