Actually there are US Government standards for websites as well. I had to know about them for an interview in DC once

Hey many in my family were marines. Not going to make wisecracks about it..
Site is like the intro to a videogame - which probably will hit the target audience.
And guys, we passed "a(y)-rabs" a looong time ago. The official jargon is now "hajis"...come on, get with the program..

Looks like hell mind you war is hell or is it 'The shit' I had the shits once that was hell let me tell you, it was like my own wee machine gun but I didn't run out of bullets I called them 'ass bullets' they didn't kill anyone but whoa boy my ass was killing me, jees I had to sit on a pillow I had put in the freezer.
Anyone else had the shits.?

the new version of that site is poorly done in my opinion. while i do feel there are some nice creative elements to it, it does not feel to have a beneficial user expereince- especially for the intended audience and what they are trying to accomplish. aside from this, i feel it is a steep departure away from the standard the previous version established. the balanced sense of typography and intuitive navigation code is gone here. instead, the user experience is very disjointed and technology is relied upon to deliver what in the end is nothing more than light brochure beta.
i hope you take this as pure critique mogo and not as an attack. i think the use of full-screen imagery is a great attribute. this element establishes a rich stage to convey tone while providing a backdrop for content. i just think beyond this, things fall apart and the AD and user model was forgotten.

they gloss over the fact that the marines are a bunch of bullet catchers

http://www.irandefence.net/showt…i think the military are recruiting people to post their websites onto forums to try entice the rest of us into the military.
