February 2024 the US Marine Corps became the first branch to accomplish a complete and passing audit of their entire inventory and assets. This was done in two years with a third party independent accounting team under the supervision of the DOD Inspector General. $46.3 billion in assets. This is a huge accomplishment and they will improve on it each year, setting the example not just for the other branches but also the US Government as a whole. It makes me want to re-up!
This is how the Marine Corps establishes unity of effort & shared understanding down to the low level. With videos like this. It keeps you bought in to where the organization is going. I wish other branches did this.
Respects from Brazil. Not just for your story and what you do and have done for your country, but specially for conserving the same standarts and values so precious for today's generations, and not getting woke. Army guy here, but all my respects for the Marines. Keep going! 🇧🇷🇺🇸
We just can't Thank You enough for all you did, are doing & will be doing for our Beautiful Country so we can have our FREEDOM. After all, our FREEDOM is not free. It's all Thanks to those that laid down their lives for our Country so we can have our FREEDOM. Once A Marine, Always A Marine. All Gave Some, Some Gave All!!🇺🇸🦅❣️
오늘 대한민국은 현충일입니다! 오래전 정의와 자유를 지키다 돌아가신분들을 기리는 날이죠... 74년전 아무도 모르는 낯선 대한민국의 자유를 지키기위해 헌신해주신 모든 분들께 감사한 마음을 전해드립니다! 잊지 않겠습니다! Thank you for your dedication!
Let me just throw this out there. Training Marines to keep up with tech, is proper and important. Promoting a private to E7 right out of boot camp is not the MarineCorps way, you know what I’m talking about. We has GS workers for a reason if that’s your motivation. To hand out rank as though it means nothing undermines our entire rank structure.
A pleasure meeting you at 8th and I General. After my time as an Infantry Marine, I spend the rest of my career in designing, creating and integrating technology in business and I agree with you 100% that this integrating is imperative with Marines on the ground. The individual Marine on the ground is still the most valuable, but with the right technology support they become even more so. Semper Fidelis.
as an Indian and as an outsider, when i hear the general talking about big data, machine learning and artificial intelligence, i see someone taking real ownership.
Our aim is clear. We control the situation. With studying complex, without knowledge so meaningless. We run and do with physical ability. We have capacity and giveaways for our troopers. Enlarge your decisions makings and empower our teams. When is our timing,where is our destination back, how is our skills, who is us, what is our safety, and why is our question? Now is holding position!
Technology will always fail and it always has, but a company of well trained Marines has proven through out our history to be almost a completely unstoppable force. Hammers don’t need batteries or degrees to operate they just need a purpose. The Marine to left and to their right has always been the purpose.

Prayer from Pres. George Washington and myself. Holy and eternal Lord God who art the King of heaven, and the watchman of Israel, that never slumberest or sleepest, what shall we render unto thee for all thy benefits: because thou hast inclined thine ear unto me, therefore will I call on thee as long as I live, from the rising of the sun to the going down of the same let thy name be praised. Among the infinite riches of thy mercy towards me, I desire to render thanks & praise for thy merciful preservation of me this day, as well as all the days of my life; and for the many other blessings & mercies spiritual & temporal which thou hast bestowed on me, contrary to my deserving. All these thy mercies call on me to be thankful and my infirmities & wants call for a continuance of thy tender mercies; cleanse my soul, 0 Lord, I beseech thee, from whatever is offensive to thee, and hurtful to me, and give me what is convenient for me. Watch over me this night, and give me comfortable and sweet sleep to fit me for the service of the day following. Let my soul watch for the coming of the Lord Jesus; let my bed put me in mind of my grave, and my rising from there of my last resurrection. 0 heavenly Father, so frame this heart of mine, that I may ever delight to live according to thy will and command, in holiness and righteousness before thee all the days of my life. Let me remember, 0 Lord, the time will come when the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall rise and stand before the judgment seat, and give an account of whatever they have done in the body, and let me so prepare my soul, that I may do it with joy and not with grief. Bless the rulers and people of this land, forget not those who are under any affliction or oppression. Let thy favour be extended to all my relations, friends and all others who I ought to remember in my prayer and hear me I beseech thee for the sake of my dear redeemer in whose most holy words, I further pray, Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.

Eric Smith had a massive heart attack, nearly died, and was nowhere to be seen for 6 months while on Active Duty. Any other Marine with even half the time in service would have immediately been processed for medical separation/retirement. Not Smith though. He's Berger's lab dog, and the only one who will continue the divestment of the Marine Corps. Never before have literally hundreds of career Marines, with far more combat & force design experience, come out with real criticism of the dangerous and ill-conceived scheme that is "Force Design 2030". But the brain-trust that was Gen. Berger's regime is intent on destroying the Marine Corps while pimping the service out the the highest paying military arms corporations. It's no coincidence that every one of these Generals have extensive stock portfolios. And they ALL serve on the board of directors and in other high-level positions of these corporations shortly after they retire. In the end, the Marines WILL pay for this folly with blood... while both Berger's and Smith's offspring live in riches.

@@AmericanFlyOnTheWall You may believe what you wish.... freewill. A person is not strong in their own wisdom. Wisdom and understanding to what is Holy and endures forever is true wisdom. Question: Where will you, as a "Strong American Atheist"... spend eternity after this life? According the Word... Hell is being disconnected from God forever. Most will not make it to Heaven.... because they deny the truth and live for themselves... while denying what was, is and is to come. Wish you well in judgment... God will rule, whether you or anyone believes. Forever.

Believe me, you will not find a rusty weapon in any of our armories, let alone 2 of em. Besides…we can only count to two crayons 🖍️.
