The Marine Corps' newest mascot, Chesty XV, arrived at Marine Barracks Washington, Washington D.C., March 19, 2018. He will begin recruit training immediately!
TheVeroxable hang in there you will get promoted. Keep your nose clean, work hard and set the example and you will get promoted. I made Sgt by the time I was 21 yrs old. During Viet Nam we made promotion quick. SEMPER Fi
My Gentle Pitt Bull lol... it doesn’t really always work like that because of pieces of nothing like former assistant vice undersecretary of defense John Rogers etc which is too bad because it damages the us significantly. Instead that guys a little too busy trying to systematically undermine records integrity tangibly harming national and international security, killing Americans on us soil and costing the us economy billions per week.
Visit FlagrantViolationsDotCom not sure what all that means. If it was not for the US Military, you would not have the freedom to express your opinion. IF you are 'NOT" an American, its none of your business. But I think your an American. Tens of thousands have died for YOUR freedom to express yourself. Semper Fi.
I once met a non-service dog husky with a tactical vest that had a master sergeant of the airforce patch, a unit patch, and name tape. The owner said he attended different missions with the owner's unit in the airforce gaurd. Long story short the owner had paper work done for this good boy to earn official rank. It was an honor to meet this hound, by far one of the best days ever.
Chesty the XIV was a well decorated Marine having received the Navy Meritorious Unit Commendation, a Marine Corps Good Conduct Ribbon, the National Defense Service Ribbon and the Global War on Terrorism Ribbon, Chesty the XV must not be up to those standards yet in 2020 as he only has the National Defense Service Ribbon and the Global War on Terrorism Ribbon! Semper Fi Marines!
Chesty XV’s service was so notable that the Secretary of the Navy attended his retirement ceremony last month. He presented him with a…pardon for multiple incidents of bad behavior. Chesty XV showed why he needed that pardon because he actually barked at the Sec. of the Navy while he was reading out the pardon. Let us hope that Chesty XVI has a better service record. It certainly couldn’t get any worse.
Donovan Whitfield the MAJ I work for said that’s so their handler can be charged with UCMJ if they were to abuse them. As it would be disrespect to a NCO
Before the mascots were named Chesty, Jiggs II was the highest ranking mascot appointed SgtMaj in 1937 he died that year after a tenure of ten years. He was buried with full military honors at Quantico. He was succeeded in the post by Smedley.
Cute puppy, a little out of control right now. Chesty the 15th, stay positive, work hard, stay cute, you will make it through boot camp. You have big shoes to fill. Make the Marine Corps proud. SEMPER Fi
@@Minotaur-ey2lg do you know which Battalion your friend was assigned to? Im an old Marine, I was in Platoon 395, India Company, 3rd Battalion, back in Oct-Dec 1973. Semper Fi
USMC 73-77 I don’t, unfortunately. This was back when we left high school back in the early 00’s. He got out about 7-8 years ago, so totally different generation. Gramps was getting out when you went in. He was a Korea and Vietnam era corpsman. Not quite a Marine, I know, but I guess he served with them long enough to be inculcated into their culture.
>4K views, zero downvotes, nearly 400 upvotes... good work. Statistically that likely indicates some of even America’s enemies don’t downvote puppers. People probably just need good doggos, a best friend with unconditional love, and we would have significant threat reduction.
This is awesome!!!! He is absolutely adorable. Almost too pretty to be a marine. JK, Thank you boys for all you so, for all you've done and all you will did. Keeping traditions alive! Semper fi!
There was an English bulldog sitting on the steps on a Marine building at NAS Memphis when I got there in early October '72. I got my first Bulldog in '75 when I was at MCAS El Toro, and now I have Frankie, my 8th English bulldog. Semper Fi, '72-76
Nearly twenty years ago a Major USMC Installation on the East Coast required a Bulldog Pup. They contacted the Breed Club, The Bulldog Club of America, and their purchasing section was referred to me. (At the time I was a well known and internationally respected of Bulldogs. Their buyer called me and essentially offered a huge amount of money - well over the prevailing price. I confirmed that the dog would live with a Marine Family for likely 2-4 years and then be "transferred" to another family, and then possibly an additional family. I passed on the deal. When I watched this great video I must say I was second guessing my decision to pass. You have to do what you absolutely believe is best for the dog if you are a responsible breeder!
I got me a ceramic English bulldog i bought at a garage sale in big spring texas. My dad was a marine. I set this dog in front of my mom's front door to the house and it gets me everytime. I trust hell do his job as a marine dog chesty. I miss my pops 😢 I think about him everyday I'm 35 but I cry like a baby everyday wishing he was still here.
I was at Camp Fuji in January of 2005, and Chesty VII, I presume, was there. He was roaming freely around the base, but mostly he just sat outside the doors of the food court waiting for someone to let him in.
Whatever You do... Don't watch "MEGAN LEAVY" the movie. SGT. REX was a darn incredible Marine. Good movie. Everything in that movie happened, right after I got out of the Corps, and was in Iraq. I think they did a great job with the movie, I know it's "Hollywood" but, it was still cool.
What does the dog do after they serve their 4 years? Are they adopted by someone, if so there must be a long list of people that want on of those retired dogs. Too cute.
