And they only put the coast guard under the department of homeland security, because of 9/11. Probably had something to do with money.
I can see why you identify so strongly with Trump. Both of you are unable to read (allegedly in Trump's case). And before you attempt the classic "Wikipedia lol" move, here it is from the Coast Guard's own website: The U.S. Coast Guard is one of five branches of the US Armed Forces, and falls under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Link You should e-mail your picture to them, not us.
I know it's hard to admit you were wrong, pumpkin. It's painful to be humiliated on the Internet by some lame "look-it-up" types.
I know it's hard to be humiliated by someone who's actually done something with their life. But the Marine Corps is a department of the navy. It's not a branch of the military. Nor is the coast guard. Eat a dick. Maybe a trans Dick that was chopped off?
You really should be telling all this to Rear Admiral James M. Heinz, the director of the Coast Guard. It's their website that identifies them as one of the five branches of the armed services. The "eat a trans dick" thing will probably be initially confusing to him, because he won't have any idea why you're filled with impotent rage over this issue.
Female infantry officer: http://www.armytimes.com/news/your-army/2016/04/27/meet-the-army-s-first-female-infantry-officer/ Female rangers: http://www.businessinsider.com/first-women-to-earn-army-ranger-tab-2015-8 Nate is so great at insults (actually he is pretty crappy on insults) but real short on facts. His "facts" boil down to "I SAID SO!!!!" And changing the subject of course. Meanwhile, to no one's surprise, Trump lied when he said he consulted with military leaders. He consulted with right wing antigay organizations. The Secretary of Defense was not notified and taken by surprise. The heads of the military were not notified. General Joseph Dunford, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said yesterday (http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-...irman-says-transgender-policy-wont-change-yet) there will be no change in military policy. Never thought I'd see the day when the Pentagon and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff were the ones defending civil rights. But I guess that, unlike Trump, they ARE focused on "the mission" and are not going to just throw away thousands of skilled and experienced personnel.
Again, you have no clue what you're talking about. Females passed watered down versions of army training (thanks Mabus, for wasting millions of dollars trying to figure out how to make army schools so easy that females could pass). No female has passed the Marine Corps infantry officer course. Eat a dick.
I can't stay calm, an internet troll thinks that the Marine Corps is its own branch of the military. I'm gonna go shoot up a school.
The five uniformed services that make up the U.S. Armed Forces are defined in Title 10 of the U.S. Code: The term "armed forces" means the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard.
Wow there is so much venom in this thread. There is trans military now and the military is functioning fine as far as I can tell. I am not sure what people are so afraid will happen if we maintain the status quo. Even the joint chief of staff is opposed to this ban. Anyway feel free to return to your eat a dick, number of branches of military, is military only goal war, and whatever other subtopics are being discussed.
