When the image wound up on the front page of the New York Times, Boyd told his parents he might lose his job if President Obama saw him out of uniform.

Man, Spc. Zachery Boyd, we salute you! Even if your not wearing your pink "I love NY boxer shorts... Opps!

What kind of uproar might there have been if he slept in the nude?

Embarrassing underwear, but he's armed and at his position! Hoo-ah!
Aboard an aircraft carrier the Marine Security Force responds immediately if called to an attempted intrusion in any nuclear weapons magazine or other restricted areas. If you're walking down a passageway and hear "Gangway!!!" you'd best step aside or you'll be laid out by charging Marines in various states of dress (or undress) depending on time of day. I don't think USMC has yet authorized pink "I Love NY" skivvies, not even for sleepwear. :d
