I have to agree with Warren Munn's comment. I'm a Marine and I'm already convinced not to watch this because I see the main character is wearing Dress Blues. The description says "soldier". No better way to offend a Devil Dog right away then to mistake him for a soldier. There is a difference! Lacks attention to detail.

They need someone that can advise them on how Marines wear their uniforms, groom themselves etc. Or they should have just made him a member of the army. Never heard if a Marine sniper stationed right outside of D.C either. The producers were rally lazy when it comes to the details but I will still watch for the story.
