The Marines are a branch steeped in tradition. Even more so than the rest of the U.S Military. For them to break with Tradition completely and cancel the event outright would certainly be indicative of momentous events behind the scenes.
Agree completely. Did they have have the ball inside a combat zone? Isn't the Commandant in the hospital?
This is a 2 star making the decision, applies to the USMC HQ for CentCom. I think they're located in Bahrain.

That makes complete sense... figured they would've just positioned them next to the 5th fleet.
