2 Vans in full dress attire sounds like a funeral detail. Contact the local Marine base and relate the date and location and they can probably track these D-bags down. I'm positive no Marine leader will accept that. Honorable service but the behavior you describe is intolerable.

Nope. They were being disrespectful. No one is entitled to anything from any civilian sector. If they offer it then that is on the business, but those Marines were nothing but disrespectful. This is coming from someone who has almost 10 years active duty in the Army and continues to serve.

I find it more annoying when cops do the same thing.

Call the base and report it. Do they have a First Shirt in the Marines? I was in the USAF so I don't know.

I appreciate the military very much, but I get really tired of the "military worship" that we have in our society these days. It's ridiculous. It's a volunteer force. It's not like they were drafted.
I suspect this is an unpopular view, but it's overboard and it's insincere. In most cases it's just marketing and has nothing to do with patriotism or veterans. It's companies trying to make themselves look good. Just look at these: http://www.bradsdeals.com/blog/2010/...ary-discounts/. And not a single one of them offers any discounts to market researchers, even though we're vital in ensuring that the best products and services are provided to the marketplace, which promotes and preserves our nation's capitalist economic system and produces additional consumer demand that generates tax dollars that buys all of those drones and howitzers.

Yeah, that's pretty disgraceful. I'd think stealing slushies probably violates the Code.

If you know the manager of the store....you might want to relay what happened to him.

Agreed. I don't know any leader who would tolerate even the first guy questioning having to pay.

The Chiefs Planet packages for the troops is not about jerkey and peanuts. They know that, we know that. If it was jerkey and peanuts provided by the mess hall it wouldnt mean shit. Recieving a package from fellow Americans out of respect and thanks for their service. That has meaning.
