WASHINGTON – Headquarters Marine Corps has recently been made aware of a video that portrays Marines urinating on what appear to be deceased members of the Taliban.
While we have not yet verified the origin or authenticity of this video, the actions portrayed are not consistent with our core values and are not indicative of the character of the Marines in our Corps. This matter will be fully investigated.
Point of contact for this issue is Headquarters Marine Corps, Division of Public Affairs Media Section: 703-614-4309 or by email to ontherecord@usmc.mil
