I re-read my last post and wanted to clarify that I meant no disrespect to the Sgt Major. It's because he has a reputation of being a stand up guy and a great leader that I think this may become an issue.
I can't imagine a man like that punishing Marines for following an example that he helped to set. He's not the only senior Marine to have knowledge of or participation in the SS usage, but his job does put him in the limelight.
