Ah, but wait...in Mexico there is no anonymity...see below for photos of the Marine. (Turns out he didn't even get hit by a bullet, just broken glass from the windows of his truck.)

What a lucky DUMB ***. I bet he does not run the next checkpoint he comes to. When he gets turned over to the Shore Patrol and gets back to his base you can bet his Commanding Officer is going to have a big piece of his *** in the form of an Article 15 Non-Judicial Punishment. This would be the bare minimum where he will receive a fine and a possible reduction in rank. Mexican Marine VS. American Marine how ironic. How Funny!

Ha! I love the pic!!! Yep, he's gonna be in big trouble, especially since he was supposedly carrying a bulletproof vest and several cartridges for an assault rifle in his truck. One can assume they were USMC issued and that they should not have been travelling across the border in a private vehicle. I have to admit that it does my heart good to see him hanging his head, as most of the Marines I've known (including my own cousin) tend to be c-cky little things! :P

my two cents...

If the Marine had a gun magazine or bullets in his vehicle he was screwed whether he stopped at the checkpoint or not. Maybe he knew there would be a problem and ran the checkpoint.

Who would have thought the Mexican Army would shoot up a tourist vehicle the week before the summer season starts. I would have thought they'd chase and persue- but not shoot to kill (well- if they had any marksmanship skills).

On the four bodies found story- a neighbor who rents local houses out for parties knew the group. He said the girl was a heroin addict and the four went to Tecate to rip off two kilos of heroin from a drug dealer. They got what they deserved and actually a bullet to the head was better than losing their heads.

I do wonder which canyon the body of the missing owner of the vehicle is in- I'll look around this afternoon when I head out for a trial ride.

Nice of the neighbor to rent out a house to them for drug parties. Nice neighborhood you have.

Just casual information he picked up in his daily rounds, I suppose.
