US calling in the Marines?
Are the United States Marines heading for Egypt? That's what this report claims. But what's most interesting about it is not that the Marines are heading to Egypt, but that they may be doing a lot more there than helping to evacuate American citizens. This senior Marine told our source that the Pentagon will deploy "multiple platoons" to Egypt over the next few days and that the official reason will be ‘to assist in the evacuation of US citizens."And the 'unofficial reason'? Hmmm.
Read the whole thing.

I’d guess you aren’t a vet. A platoon isn’t much of a force. Multiple platoons would be a company. Not much of a force to take on the Egyptian army, even for us Marines
