…No Marines will Park in UAW Lot
Even if they drive a Chevy Camaro with a John Kerry bumper sticker.
BlackFive is reporting that the Marine parking issue at the UAW has been resolved:
I just received word that the UAW is backing off.
The US Marine Corps Reserve Battalion Commander had already made the decision to not allow any drilling Marine Reservists to park in the UAW lot - he thinks it’s “parking silliness” and his Marines need to “focus on more important things”. He’s right, of course. His Marines are training for their next deployment.
Then, after thinking the issue settled this morning, the CO receives a call from UAW President Ron Gettelfinger (a former Marine) who told him that he just reversed the policy.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the Marines refuse to park there. Anyway, the parking issue is
resolveddone.
I wouldn’t be surprised if all of those Marines also refuse to ever purchase another vehicle produced in a UAW shop. I know I won’t buy another one. Because I share the sentiments of Lt. Col. Joe Rutledge, commanding officer of the battalion’s active duty instructors,
You either support the Marines or you don’t.
I’m curious to know if UAW President Ron Gettelfinger had a say in the original decision to ban his fellow Marines from continuing to park in the UAW lot.
