I just read a couple posts where the guy was called an idiot and was terrorizing the children or was mentally unstable due to serving and shouldn't be around the school. I guess I call BS when I see it.
I guess you should consider the sources who likely never served in the military and have never put themselves at risk in their smug little superior lives.
According to the article, he's also in big big trouble (a possible $10K fine and an investigation) for wearing his fatigues vs. his dress uniform in public. Hopefully the Marine Corp will back down on that one...
Blue Dress B, C, D....BUT NOT A.
His Service Uniform or (greens) are usually worn as a suit...like say in a Court Martial.
If he was still enlisted...I would have asked which one was ok for that situation before doing so.
I thank him for what he did...however I think he needed a "bit" more attitude.
He did it to make the children feel a bit safer. I don't see how anybody can have a problem with this guy doing that very thing.
Only the left would have a problem with this. Of course they're only happy to read stories about dead marines, not live ones making children feel better.
The Marines Toys for Tots drive probably gives them ulcers.
Now this I like to see. This is a feel good story. The U.S. Marine who did two tours of duty took it upon himself to go down to the local elementary school to give them the satisfaction of feeling safe and secure. This could be a trend setter. Marine Sgt. Craig Pusley...
Turns out we have a Walt on our hands. It's not Marine Sgt. Craig Pusley of two tours of duty, it's Marine PFC Craig Pusley with no MOS, no tours of duty anywhere and a full 8 months in the Corps.

we need armed marines in our schools. of course when there is armed confrontation by students, the lawyers will swear they they were troubled youth not terrorists.

The US Marine Corps does not wear fatigues. That is the US Army. The Army wears fatigues because they are always tired. The Marines wear utilities.
He is not in trouble for wearing utilities, he is in trouble for lying his butt off. First of all, he was a Private First Class (E-2), not a Sergeant (E-5), and barely six months out of boot camp before he was discharged. He also never served overseas, as he claimed. The article does not say what kind of discharge he received, but since he only served a total of nine months before being discharged it could not have been an honorable discharge, but it may have been under honorable conditions. Since the Marine Corps acknowledges that he was an E-2, he did not receive a Bad Conduct or Dishonorable Discharge, or they would have stripped his rank. Therefore, he received either a General or Medical Discharge, under either honorable or other than honorable conditions.
“At no point was he asked to stop standing in protection of his son’s school, only that he not wear his uniform in doing so.”

If he is still enlisted he is not permitted to wear his MARPAT while on liberty. You better check that out....I KNOW!
As for his Blue Dress...or Service Uniform.....I would have asked for such a duty.
He at least remembered that his grooming and weight regulations had to be standard before doing so at least..
