A US Marine unit says goodbye to one of their own on his 'unofficial last day'

A gay Marine goes to Reddit to show how his unit feels about his sexuality

US Marine holding a flag his unit gave him on his 'unofficial last day' (posted on Reddit)

A gay US Marine used Reddit, a social and news website, to post a gift his unit gave him.  'Today's my unofficial last day as a Marine,' the serviceman wrote. 'This is what my unit gave me to say goodbye.'  The picture shows the service member holding a rainbow flag. In the middle is a Marine symbol, and under that is the term 'Served with Pride.'  If the photo doesn't make you choke up, check out the comments.  'Love the flag,' Trustmeimanurss wrote. 'Really, really love that I just read all the comments. And all, but a very few, were so positive, non-hateful and appreciative, of your service. High five Reddit!'  'I would up vote this ten thousand times if I could,' StumpBeefgnaw noted. 'That flag is awesome. Your unit is awesome. You are awesome.'
