Thank you Michael Cohen

But you are still a co-traitor.


"Combat Obscura"

Now, THIS is the Marine Corps remember!


The reason why the Corps was so angry at the hour-long documentary could perhaps be found within the opening moments of the film, as grunts wait for an airstrike on a compound.

" 'Bout to have a drop right here, yeahhh!" one Marine says, as a camera focuses on an Afghan compound. Then seconds later, a blast is heard, and the camera turns to a house hundreds of meters away. "Holy shit. That's the wrong building. Holy shit! Yeah boy!"

It's just one of many scenes that upend the spit and polished image the Marine Corps wants to convey to outsiders. But as most Marines know (including this writer), the reality is much more than dress blues, marching in formation, and love of country.
