The Marine Corps has announced its newest recruit with more fanfare than employed for the average grunt, probably because the recruit is a dog.

The Corps announced Thursday that it is getting a new bulldog pup to take on the mantle of "Chesty" after the current one steps down this summer.
 
"Recruit Chesty XVI recently began training to replace the retiring Lance Cpl. Chesty XV," the Marines wrote in a press release.

Am I the only one that thinks it is ironic that the USMC looks down on soldiers and calls them "doggies",while worshiping a dog mascot at the same time?

Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!
