The only liars that can exceed the hubris of a Weldon would be the marines themselves who dont-give-a-shit about anyones son or daughter that his joined their malignant narcissism death club when the crap V-22s fly into the ground and explode in flames:

Are you surprised when marine officers act like moral cowards and lie publicly even when caught red-handed on tape deliberately telling their subordinates to lie about V-22 mechanical break-downs? What do you think pride + egotism + narcissism = ?

It equals INCOMPETENCE...failures and sadly, tragic deaths like the V-22 crew chief son of the poor mother shown in the video. HQMC doesnt give-a-shit about anyone--except HQMC and the taxpayer-funded, false religion it represents. All for the USMC fascist Borg--and fu*k you!

Over 140 V-22s have now been delivered to the marine corps, so they now outnumber the CH-46Es still in service!

The 10 they have used as airplanes operating from airbases in Iraq are now worn out and have been withdrawn. They dispatched a Navy ship (LHD) from Norfolk to retrieve them, since they couldn't fly home.

Ten V-22s were supposed to deploy aboard ship last November with the 26th MEU(SOC), but pre-deployment exercises prompted the Corps to cancel that idea at the last moment. Ten V-22 did deploy aboard ship with the
22nd MEU this month. There is no news on how they are performing, but note that the 22nd MEU is not a MEU(SOC) since it failed to demonstrate that it was (Special Operations Capable) during pre-deployment training. It was only the second MEU to fail such certification since the SOC concept began two decades ago.

Despite all the sales pitches earlier this year about how marines and V-22 will dominate the battlefield in Afghanistan, it was learned last month that none will deploy with the 8000-man 2nd MEB!

This means there are only 10 of 140 V-22s deployed overseas, whereas half the remaining CH-46s remain committed to units in Iraq, Afghanistan, Okinawa, and aboard ships. They throw out the "new" aircraft excuse for this, but the V-22 first flew in 1989 and went into production in 1999!
