i don't think anyone showed anyone up...who's to say the marine wasn't making that reaction for the player? i see no one showboating or showing anyone up...just an enthusiastic yell from perhaps a fan. and for the record, while it be be a nice token to capitalize the 'm', in the way it is being used in this instance(aka as a generic term) it is not necessary to capitalize, the same way you would say 'the doctor' 'the priest' 'the candlestick maker', 'the teacher'

... and The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language says to capitalize it when used as a noun referring to a member of the USMC. http://www.ahdictionary.com/word/search.html?q=marine

 

Either way is "correct" but I choose to capitalize it as a sign of respect.

Do we have to capitalize the "J" in "jarhead," too?

 

:beer:

you too, i thought better. Every American should respect our armed sevices all the way back to General George Washington for putting the concept of democracy and freedom from oppressive tyrant nations first before their own lives. just the individual sacrifices alone should be enough to overcome any misconceptions folks may have these days about right and wrong

I think actual history has taken a backseat to you tube videos and twitter : )

 

Lol it was in response to his post. It was actually to see if anyone would be biased. You didn't disappoint.

I sure am. Proud of it. One of the points in life i dont take lightly. sorry.

now lets get back these darn Buffalo Bills

What is funny which I thought you would have noticed is I never mentioned anything Military I simply said "guy". That was the whole point.

Busted. I actually i wasnt paying attention to details.

Isnt the subject matter the Marine and my boy Marquise ? Who is showing very well at camp by all reports by the way

Even if you don't like them, they're nothing alike...

As a veteran of the Corp from '91-'99, I'm embarrassed by this Marines actions. First, I noticed the white trousers. Not blue with the blood line, which means special duty, perhaps Silent Drill? (unless recruiting duty now wears white) Being a VT game, I can see this as a "home" game for him if he is assigned to D.C. If he is Silent Drill, I would expect more discipline and bearing from a highly disciplined Marine. Either a SD member or a recruiter or whatever, I think he forgot his place and acted like a fan and not a Marine at the moment. That's okay when in civies, not in uniform.

Please capitalize the m in Marine, it may not seem like a big deal but it is for us who served.

 

As a former army captain, who always thought of Marines kindly as jarheads, I've now decided to always spell Marine with a capital M. Service deserves respect.

We all know how Gunnys can get when they are agitated, especially by a kid playing football. :rolleyes:

Thank you sir, I know we all engage in the occasional service bragging contest but I always capitalize Army, Navy, Air Force, and Coast Guard. I have respect for everyone who serves and I appreciate the reciprocation.

I didn't know the official uniform regulation so thank you for clarifying.
