One Marine’s View of Col. Oliver North

This is an excerpt from One Marine’s View a USMC blogger in Ramadi, Iraq:

I have a section of Marine F-18s circling like great white sharks above us ready to dive down and tear a holy shit ass into someone if needed. I’m thankful they are Marines up there, they will know how we fight and that could be the difference in tenths of seconds and again yes I’m very glad their fellow Marines. We get to our destination through a narrow empty alley. Its quiet and we quickly move past bullet ridden walls to our determined location. While conducting our business inside some of the men are outside establishing security and talking with Col Oliver North. Its weird seeing him in this shit hole but he is cool as hell and shoots the shit with they guys. He’s still a Marine and the men know it. You can’t bullshit the men they will smell a turd a mile away like the stench of other Marines who have strayed…

That last remark sounds like this Marine is making reference to a certain disingenuous ex-Marine turned congressman – Jack Murtha perhaps?
