Blasphemy. No blue disks, and it looks like the brass on his collar isn&#8217;t infantry branch. That name tag goes on the other pocket and his marksman badge goes on the pocket flap. He was a Private First Class, so he knows that rank on the Marine Corps cap is upside down.<\/p>\n<p>He got all stabby about the public uniform corrections, and his victim was cut on the arm. I guess we know why his time in the Army was so brief (18 months). <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Saturday, we talked about Marc Dominguez, the fellow in San Diego who was wearing his &hellip; <a title=\"Army says that Marc Dominguez served\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=75939\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Army says that Marc Dominguez served<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":75906,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[185],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-75939","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-crime"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/75939","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=75939"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/75939\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/75906"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=75939"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=75939"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=75939"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
