Uhhhhh genuinely don't know how the fuck this is even possible. Basically acting as mercenaries at this point :amerikkka:

      I always thought it was funny that the marines explicitly disallowed that stuff (moto patches, anything more than rank insignia and maybe logistics group square things) while also being all sorts of more bloodthirsty, or at least stereotypically so

        Duplicating doctrine but louder and dumber etc. I've never had the chance to work with American marines, but they're probably no more [insert aggressive adjective here] than the army. I don't think I've ever seen anyone actually wear a morale patch on their uniform, and even outside of their duties. Maybe like, on a backpack or something.

          You're probably right. A lot of army guys I saw didn't have anything more than the bare required patches. And even though my prior cult participation would make me think that the marines are more disciplined, I don't think I can honestly believe it anymore.
