True story. I look very closely at all the military that’s usually in the background especially the Marines. Another thing I’ve noticed is a lot of 8th & I Marines (the Presidents honor guard) don’t have Pistol marksmanship badges. This is also very unusual.
Certain versions of the dress blue A uniform only employ medals vs ribbons and Marksmanship badges. Ditto for the white pants. That part is not unusual.
I've only ever seen hands in front of the body like this with the silent drill platoon, who go to parade rest with their weapons in front of them. Not a normal posture imo.

Kind of hard to be a Marine without one of those, yes?
