THE FEW, THE PROUD, THE NAKED: ALLEGATIONS OF GAY MARINE PORN ARE INVESTIGATED

The Marine Corps is investigating whether Marines at Twentynine Palms, Calif., and other bases have posed naked for gay pornography being sold on the Internet, the LOS ANGELES TIMES is set to report on Thursday.

According to publishing sources, the paper is developing a story on a website that claims individuals pictured are in the military.

Posing naked is a criminal offense under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

The website -- not named in the TIMES -- goes a step further: using the Marine Corps name, logo, insignia, initials and colors.

The investigation began after pornographic pictures allegedly involving Marines were sent anonymously to Commandant Gen. James Jones. Along with pictures was a note asserting that Marines at Twentynine Palms are being
recruited by other Marines and offered money to pose naked.

The Marine Criminal Investigative Division is trying to determine the scope of the situation, the paper has learned.

I have to wonder if it's a hoax. That story was first circulated quite a few years ago. Uh, seems to me about 10 years ago? I don't know if anything was actually proven, though. I could be wrong.

 

[Never]

So, why is that illegal?

So, why is that illegal?

It's called "Conduct Unbecoming of a <insert service and grade here>" In my case, it would be "conduct unbecoming of an Non-commissioned Officer"

It's a catch-all clause in the UCMJ to cover anything that casts the military in a bad light.

This is apparently a current, ongoing investigation. Today's Sex News from Billy Wildhack (on the story index page) includes the following:

"Although it's a criminal offense for military personnel to pose nude, softcore and hardcore porn of alleged Marines can be found quite easily on the web at such places as marinemeat.com.

NH, I didn't check out the site, but it's a starting pint for your search for naked Marines.
