Marine ‘emotionally exhausted’ by having to plan to kill everyone he meets
He takes Gen. Mattis' orders very seriously.
QUANTICO, Va. — Lance Cpl. Matt Bennet was admitted to Naval Medical Clinic Quantico with “emotional exhaustion” today after breaking down from the strain of “having a plan to kill everyone he meets,” according to sources in Bennet’s platoon.
“Like all real Marines, Bennet reveres Gen. [James] Mattis,” according to Bennet’s company commander, Capt. J.D. Maurer. “He takes the general’s orders, instructions and advice extremely seriously.”
“As do we all,” he added. "For instance, if I need to kill Bennet, I'm going to send him on a night march, and get him with a Claymore as he clears the tree line."
According to fellow Marines, Bennet began the planning last summer at a Denny's in Stafford, Va.
