A lot of major descrepincies have already been pointed out, but I'm surprised that no one has mentioned the unauthorized neon green glowing dot that he's wearing over his name tape.

1SG Michael Blount - FYI, sword/saber: The saber is worn by officers while participating in ceremonies with troops under arms, or as directed. The sword is worn by all platoon sergeants and first sergeants while participating in ceremonies with troops under arms, or as directed. From FM 3-21.5 (FM 22-5) Drill and Ceremony App F. Manual of Arms-Saber and Sword.

Unable to source this but, traditionally at a military wedding, Officer wedding would use the saber arch, while enlisted wedding would use a rifle arch for the newlyweds to pass under.

That glowing neon dot is his reflective belt. It covers him in a safe glow where ever he walks.

Not trying to change the subject here but this picture actually made me start thinking of something that happened a while back. While walking back to my barracks from the DFAC I passed a group of officers, I quickly raised a salute and greeted them with good afternoon gentlemen. After I said this I noticed a few female officers in the group as well. I know that two or more officers is to be addressed as gentlemen, if there are female officers in the group do we still use the masculine or is there another term? The same goes for if its a group of all female officers? No one had been able to give me a decisive answer.
