Marine special operators get a codpiece

Marine special operators get a codpiece

CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. — The Marine Corps has announced the authorization of an “extra very special insignia” MARSOC operators will be able to wear “in order to make POGs understand more clearly that they just don’t rate,” according to Maj. Gen. Carl E. Mundy III, command of Marine Special Operations Command (MARSOC).

The insignia, the first Marine Corps-only uniform device, features a large gold codpiece that attaches to the crotch of the uniform trousers to accentuate the genital area. Written across the front of the codpiece is the MARSOC motto: “Prima Nocte.”

MARSOC spokesman Capt. Barry Morris said, “The creation of this device grants Raiders a visual certification of their critical role in making all other service members feel less critical in their daily tasks and duties.”
