Comments on: A learning experience https://www.peoplevstate.com/?p=293 fairly undermining public confidence in the administration of justice Sat, 26 Sep 2009 06:08:50 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.4.15 By: John Kindley https://www.peoplevstate.com/?p=293&cpage=1#comment-1100 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 23:47:38 +0000 http://www.peoplevstate.com/?p=293#comment-1100 Thanks for lightening the mood of this post. Probably I should have said more so as to find a point, such as that one can be against war and not necessarily a pacifist.

But aren’t there the same number of syllables in the USMC version as in the original? Or does scansion have nothing to do with number of syllables? I don’t know, having been an English major at USNA.

It should be “Napalm sticks to the children of the world.” Who the hell is teaching scansion to the Navy these days?
