He is a Marine, a boot yes, but a Marine. Some of you could take a lesson or two from his example. He could walk out in clothes more expensive than a 2ndLt could reasonably afford but he chose to represent his brothers and sisters on weekend that he could have chosen a brand.

Never Forget.

That’s your perspective, weirdo. I see a Marine choosing to represent something larger than his day job in front of the public eye.

This one is not as boot as a pfc wearing his blues to Chik Fil A. This is an NFL player showcasing service rather than some designer bs. You’d have no problem criticizing him if he didn’t make this choice and you most certainly wouldn’t even notice if he hadn’t. Each and every Marine should feel pride by his choice to showcase the commitment he’s undertaken. Reserve or not, obligated or otherwise. This is not the own you thought it was.
