Days after President Donald Trump announced he would be pulling all U.S. troops out of Syria, a Marine first sergeant on the ground has refused to let any of them leave until "every swingin' dick" has filled out their leave chits, sources confirmed today.
"Hold on there, motivators. No one's going anywhere until you all have a daggum hour-by-hour safety plan in place," said 1st Sgt. Ray Thornton. "And there ain't no way in hell the CO will approve these chits until squad leaders have inspected every friggin' POV."
Thornton stressed to the Marines that anyone planning to travel farther from Syria than the allowed 200-mile leave boundaries would need to have a special plan in place and would need to call CENTCOM every 24 hours to check in.
