Re: Hammurabi, USMC - DMR
Dear Family and Friends: A quick update. Staff Sgt Toothless has been shipped down to Kuwait, relieved of his command of the Air delivery Marines and there's whispers of a "court martial" in the rumor mill. There may yet be-- even if my unit is only talking about it to keep us from revolting-- the Jag officers promised to stipulate that this instance was not erased or forgotten in the exchange of forces currently underway. I realize that on a long enough timeline, if Justice is allowed to be the sole victor, every single one of us is hosed. We are all human and will all fall short if given enough time. However, on our timelines we usually don't include such vulgarities as theft and sexual harrassment while masquerading as an honorable and courageous Marine. I say this so you all know my intense desire to see this sack of falsehoods burn isn't motivated out of some self-blind judgmental thinking on my part. The way this "man" acts, he's asking for the torch. It seems like he's getting it, thank God. :D
