The few...the proud...the can't leave yet.
Everyone planning on leaving the Marines soon, take one step forward....not so fast there, Bunky.
Preparing for possible war against Iraq, the Marine Corps has taken the unusual step of stopping all Marines from leaving the service for the coming 12 months, officials said Thursday.
The decision was announced to all Marines in an internal message Tuesday from Gen. James Jones, the Marine Corps commandant. He said it applies to active-duty as well as reserve Marines and is effective Jan. 15 through Jan. 31, 2004.
It's not just a career, it's a form of involuntary servitude...hoo-yah.
