Damn I love my beloved Corps these days...
Marine Commander’s Defiant Response to Activists’ Demands Over ‘God Bless the Military’ Sign
A Marine Corps base in Hawaii has decided to keep a controversial “God bless the military” sign that has riled some activists in recent weeks, saying that the placard serves as a “secular symbol.”
The Military Religious Freedom Foundation complained late last month that the sign at Marine Corps Base Hawaii in Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii, was inappropriate and should be moved to the base chapel, but a commander has declined that request.
Commander Col. Sean C. Killeen sent a letter on Friday to the Military Religious Freedom Foundation, explaining that the sign — which reads in full, “God bless the military, their families and the civilians who work with them” — will not be taken down.
“This sign will remain in its present location and not be altered in any way,” the commander wrote
