I am a Iraqi combat veteran and served with 2nd Bn 5th Marines as a 0311 infantry grunt. been to iraq and back, i got out in 2004 and got more Marine Corps tattoos. I desperately want to go back to the Marine Corps and they won\’t let me due to my sleeves. Mind you, their all Military related. all i want is to go back to the Grunts and go back to iraq or afghan. wtf, is the problem. LET ME SERVE OUR COUNTRY. I Will be contacting my congressman. any help please call me and leave a message 562.677.5664 Cpl Padilla 0311

Marines are not allowed to be individuals! Same uniforms worn the same way with the same haircuts. Threaten us about tattoos but offer re-enlistment bonuses to terrible NCO’s. I’m stuck with a half-colored sleeve. Thanks General.
