A podcast I was watching this morning also pointed out their salutes were out of sync, had they been real Marines their actions would have been precisely in sync.
Marines always salute with the back of their hands tilted forward. Their arms are at a 45 and their hands are at another 45. Middle fingertip to the temple.
Okay, not what I'm referencing though. When I say in out of sync, one started saluting before the other, thus out of sync. Even coming down the stairs they are slightly out of sync.
From what I heard on a podcast this morning from a former Naval officer and Marine is their ceremony procedures are precise, and extremely precise involving Presidential procedures. Not the case here, maybe they spent too much time studying arm & hand angles lol
The Marine on the right of the screen was moving around ever so slightly. Look at the red light shining through beneath his right arm pit. You can use that as gauge to see how much he's wavering. The Marine on the left barely moved at all.
I was NAVY for 6 years. We never held our hands in front like that. It was either full attention, or parade rest with our hands locked behind our back.
They are not Marines. Their pose with hands in front is not a military stationary pose.

Thank God they are so stupid and sloppy. If I were trying to put out fake Marines, I would have studied what was authentic before staging the fakes.
More likely they're Hen Night entertainers on a down-day, cash deal.
My son is a marine, that is actually a pose.
Marines don’t pose.

Looks like a variation of Parade Rest used for ceremonial events. Others that are far more knowledgeable will be along soon with more info.
