    They do not make Marines like they used to.
    Not in the US, anyway.
    I doubt any one of them could step on to the shores of Iwo Jima,
    as most of them would turn away long before then rather than face
    trained and hardened soldiers devoted to their beloved Emperor.

    Today's version of US Marines are wimps. Not all of them, but more
    than anybody can imagine. Wimps, I tell you. Wimps!

    ........................There has been a 38.9 percent decline rate, but
    the Marines are providing information to individuals to encourage them
    to get the vaccine.

    “The Navy and Marine Corps are providing substantial educational
    information broadly, and working with commands to ensure Marines,
    Sailors, and beneficiaries have accurate information regarding the
    safety and efficacy of the vaccines to encourage individuals to get immunized,” Capt. Andrew Wood, a Marines spokesman, told The Hill
    in a statement.

    The data showed that 75,500 Marines have received the vaccine and
    48,000 have declined it. Overall, the acceptance rate is 61.1 percent.

    The numbers for the data include reserves, active-duty and Individual Mobilization Augmentee Marines, according to CNN. ............


    ...................Since the vaccines have only emergency use
    authorization from the Food and Drug Administration, the military
    can not require that service members get vaccinated. ..........

    What this country needs are men and women who are not chicken
    to put up a fight. COVID-19 is everybody's enemy. Those who refuse
    to do their duty are not my friend(s), or anybody else's.

    Now put on your big boy pants and BE A MARINE!
