And they make sure the black service member is at the front of the picture - but the media would deny any form of racism

I don’t necessarily know if this is some subtle form of racism or not, but if I was any one of those Marines in the photo I would be objecting very loudly about my picture being associated with such a salacious article.

The paper could have used a Marine Corps graphic or something else; instead they put a bunch of people in a photo that probably have nothing to do with the stink of this Facebook group.

The article about this in Marine Corps Times has a photo of male and female Marines in PT gear, shot in such a way that they are all pretty much unrecognisable in shadow.
