I sincerely appreciate the accomplishments of these guys... but im just wondering why are they marching so awkward as shown in the picture... they seem to be protesting... sorry for noticing this..of all the things.:-)

it's not you, they really do march kinda funny. i will never understand the need for overexaggerated arm movements. thankfully the united states armed services believe in a natural swing to the arms - hence don't look so damned silly

Every military in the world marches like the brits except us and the communists.

Probably a carry over from the old Iraqi Army. A lot of the military in that part of the world march the same.

I always wondered why Arab and African armies seemed to do that very pronounced arm swing when they march. Brits used to do the same thing in the past.

Looks so silly
