Virginia Waller-Torres who is a resident of Hagerstown Maryland is one person who is very grateful that her answer to a prayer to be rescued came true last month when she was driving in the Washington D. C, area when her auto was driving down an exit ramp was hit by a flash flood last month. Virginia prayed very hard to God that He would send her His Angels to come to her rescue. One minute after Virginia's prayer was heard, members of the United States Marines elite group called The Body Bearers who work details at Arlington National Cemetery carrying the caskets of their deceased soldier appeared out of the blue to get her out of the auto that was in the flooded road. The Marine soldiers like to keep their work of assisting persons who need help quiet which is a wonderful way to your job as a service and not to given attention for the sake of getting an ego massage so to speak. Marine Corporal Matthew Bouchard who was a member of the rescue team did grant an interview with the media in Washington D. C. that they were just doing their job of making sure no one stays behind in war and peace on the battlefield.

My Former roommate in marines showed me this one apparently a whole video of it. The lady was like holy crap, was thanking her lucky stars. Then we proceeded to joke about how they were going to have one hell of a cleaning bill. I would be like sorry I look to good to mess up this uniform. Seriously, glad it turned out well.

@Deepizzaguy Those are actually Dress whites, obviously with the white pants, but supposedly they retired them in 2000 or something. I never even saw those when I was in 1999 was my last year and cannot remember what they are for. Not sure why they were wearing them if that is true. People do not seem to know much about it and probably so being you have to be in and get the memo of why they were retired if that is true.So rare I do not even remember getting classes on them just that is another uniform Marines can use.
