I thought the same thing. Where are their covers?

What are covers?

I had a military dad and my older brothers all did a stint, but I’m not well versed on military stuff...they were all AF.

From what I’ve read prior, and I’m not sure the reason, I didn’t think Marines were supposed to be in uniform in the civilian world. I definitely could be incorrect.

Nevermind I found my answer on Google:

Marines can wear their dress uniforms off base, they can’t wear their fatigues, but in some cases they can, only if they are married and live off base, but only to their place of residence.

“”Marines in Dress Blues and wearing medals...where are their Covers ?””

That was strange. Had there been an earlier ceremony somewhere? I didn’t see any Marines of any higher rank than one stripe and CERTAINLY not any that looked to be in good physical shape.

“where are their Covers?”

They’re indoors. Covers come off indoors.

Checked with the front door obviously before a fight spilled outside. You don’t wear it while brawling.
Good to see a squad with high morale. Cops had no interest in it when it was blacks trying to start the fight. But when the grunts decided to finish it... the cops swarm in. LOL
