Barack Obama asked nearby marines to hold out umbrellas during a press conference with Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Obama is apperentlaey is too lazy or has a lac of respect when it comes to the United states Marine Corps. Why are the U.S. Marines holding the umbrella and not the Secret Service?
Obama kindly states, “I am going to go ahead and ask folks, why don’t we get a couple of Marines -- they’re going to look good next to us,” Obama joked. “I’ve got a change of suits, but I don’t know about our prime minister.”
"You guys I'm sorry about," Obama said to the press.
Capt. Greg Wolf. He explained that it's "extremely rare" to see marines in uniform holding umbrellas, as they're usually not permitted to do so -- unless their commander-in-chief asks them.
