I’m saying this because I’m hearing there is a lot wrong with their uniforms and uniformity.
Ex. Name? Rank? Correct masking? Even some of the females having incorrect hair styles
I don’t have a clue.

I get that. But aren’t there name patches or rank patches or a flag patch? None of the soldiers in the crowd had any.

Rank & file US military boycotted the event. The Biden Team had to hire British actors to impersonate US service peeps. Conspiracy news on the 40's - You heard it here first. :D

They are Air Force…name tapes and service tapes are subdued and hard to see in this picture…

And the vast majority are in the older Air Force combat uniform that does not have the U.S. flag …the new combat uniform just coming out has it, but again, it is subdued…

And as pointed out, some are in flight suits, which again, use subdued rank, name, and unit patches…

Biden and the Queen...like two old dogs, will be sniffing one another before they determine which one needs to be mounted in order to show dominance.

Marines don't have hair like that. That's the kind of hair you go to a "boutique" instead of a barber to get cut. Dude top left would be told to get the fuck out of the building and get a regulation haircut. Same with the pilot. Totally unsat.

They look like Zoomies to me.

Sloppy and un-uniform.

And I bet a year’s salary none of those flight suit guys are on flight status.

IIRC, the only blue uniform is a coverall. It's a "dirty work" uniform.


In everything else, yes they don't wear the blue Type III as of Oct. 2019.

Correct. They got a new flame resistant coverall to replace the old ones for shipboard use, primarily for use underway, or in port if they were doing work that would expose you to a potential flame such as careless in port maintenance as seen by Bonhomme Richard.
