The Royal Marines defeat the US Marines at the 'Battle of the Mojave Desert'
By Andrea Widburg
The Marines occupy an almost mythic place in many Americans' minds as an invincible force that runs to the guns and fights no matter what. That's why it was so shocking to learn that, during a joint training exercise in the Mojave Desert, Britain's Royal Marines inflicted such a shellacking on the Americans that the latter had to surrender halfway through the exercise. This is a direct result of the Pentagon having gone woke under Obama — something that Trump failed to undo — followed by Biden doubling down on Obama's policies.
Marines used to be synonymous with dogged determination. Tripoli (1805), the Halls of Montezuma (1847), Belleau Wood (1918), Guadalcanal (1943), Iwo Jima (1945), Inchon (1950), Chosin Reservoir (1950), Khe Sanh (1968), Hue (1968), Fallujah (2004) — each of these names brings to us visions of Marines running to the gun, marching through the woods, slogging through the snow, fighting over volcanic islands, and never retreating, never stopping.
But the Marines have been in war nonstop since 2001, and that's a long time for a fighting force. At a certain point, rather than experience building them up and strengthening them, nonstop war wears men down. They lose their edge and their fire.
