Extremism Stand Down

The Marine Corps is not immune from the destructive effects of extremism. It is contrary to good order and discipline, and erodes the faith and trust of the American citizens and those Marines and civilian personnel affected by it. We are proud of the fact that Marines come from every race, creed, cultural background and walk of life.
