HAGEL NAMES WM AS NEXT COMMANDANT!

QUANTICO, VA — She’s been in combat, she wants to radically reorganize the Marine Corps, and she thinks male Marines need to stop whining and put their big girl panties on. This week we sat down for a one-on-one interview with Gen. Isabella Santiago, who sources at the Pentagon say is poised to become the Marine Corps’ first-ever woman commandant.
Santiago will replace current commandant Gen. James Amos, whose term has been marred by a series of public relations fiascoes and scandals. While it is unusual for a commandant’s successor to be named this early, Pentagon sources say the recent photograph of Amos wearing a Raider patch was the last straw for Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel, who quietly told the general it was time to move on.

I won't lie.

My heart stopped.

I couldn't breathe.

I thought I was having a heart attack.

Then my buddy told me it was joke.  Once the blood returned to my head, and I picked him up off the floor (he deserved that punch), I realized something.

Amos is gone this year.  God does love the infantry.
