I spent 33 years and four months in active service...[in] the Marine corps. During that period, I spent most of my time being a high-class muscle man for Big Business, for Wall Street and for the bankers. In short, I was a raketeer for capitalism... I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912... I helped in the rape of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefit of Wall Street.

Not so much new information in the article itself in my opinion, but wow, take a look at the photos they used! Also, there are tons of comments and it is amazing (I suppose it shouldn't be, but still...) how ignorant some people are and how just nasty some of the comments are...
