There was a television on in the waiting room at the VA and this was on. A kind of stunned silence swept over the waiting room when that happened. You could almost here the collective WTF going through everyones head.

Only women are authorized to carry umbrellas while in the appropriate uniform. Specifically: “UMBRELLAS. Female Marines may carry an all-black, plain standard or collapsible umbrella at their option during inclement weather with the service and dress uniforms. It will be carried in the left hand so that the hand salute can be properly rendered. Umbrellas may not be used/carried in formation nor will they be carried with the utility uniform.”

Are we really at a point where a world leader, or senior leader can’t simply hold an umbrella in one hand and continue to speak? Is that so beneath the office? Is this a monarchy or a republic. Sigh…

Oh for fuck’s sake…..those are Marines, not butlers you grandstanding fuckstick! This dude is so damn tone deaf it’s not even funny. This would never have happened under any other President. I can’t even express how pissed off I am!

Personally, I think it should have been Bite Me and Carnage holding the umbrellas; it’s about the only thing those two humps are good for.

meanwhile in Vicenza the 173rd Abn had an Uncasing Ceremony signaling the full return of the Brigade from Afghanistan. In the pouring rain, where they all stood out in that pouring rain, in formation, no snivel gear….. not a single umbrella was seen.

It amazes me that this administration would have so…oh, who the fuck am I kidding. No, I’m not really surprised by this. Treating MARINES, or any service member like this, is unfathomable. Semper Fi, Marines–you had a whole lot more self-control standing there than I would have.

Commendations to those Marines. The President shows his utter lack of respect for them and still they stand in the rain and protect him from the elements.

The Marines used to have a cape and cane uniform as part of the mess dress. Not sure the time frame but we had all the uniform prints in our company orderly rooms.

Obama breaches Marine umbrella protocol

4:28 PM 05/16/2013

The commander in chief of the American armed forces today forced a violation of Marine Corps regulations, so he wouldn’t get wet.

According to Marine Corps regulation MCO P1020.34F of the Marine Corps Uniform Regulations chapter 3, a male Marine is not allowed to carry an umbrella while in uniform. There is no provision in the Marine Corps uniform regulation guidelines that allows a male Marine to carrying an umbrella.

Nevertheless, during a press conference under a light drizzle with Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan this morning, President Obama allowed the First Head to be protected from the elements by an umbrella held by a male Marine corporal.

The relevant portion of the regulation reads, “3035. UMBRELLAS (Female Marines). Female Marines may carry an all-black, plain standard or collapsible umbrella at their option during inclement weather with the service and dress uniforms. It will be carried in the left hand so that the hand salute can be properly rendered. Umbrellas may not be used/carried in formation nor will they be carried with the utility uniform.”

Items not expressly delineated as authorized components of the Marine Corps uniform are prohibited. Male Marines are informed never to carry an umbrella from the earliest phases of training.

Not even the President of the United States can request a Marine to carry an umbrella without the express consent of the Commandant of the Marine Corps, according the Marine Corps Manual.

The Marine Corps Manual, the guidebook that defines protocol for officers and enlisted Marines, in section 2806 paragraph 2, specifically states “The Marine Corps Uniform Regulations, published by the Commandant of the Marine Corps, shall be binding on all Marines. No officer or official shall issue instructions which conflict with, alter, or amend any provision without the approval of the Commandant of the Marine Corps.”
