There were a couple that did show though, but not in Uniform, correct. They can't take "sides" or be political. Though we know what "side" 99% of our troops are on.

Why are the John Kerry in trainings allowed to wear unifroms though?

How is it that this guy was able to attend on behalf of the Sheehan side then? Was what he was doing illegal?

Wearing his Marine fatigues, former Marine corporal Mike McNeil, of Ft. Worth, looks at a name on one of the crosses lining the side of the road leading to President Bush's ranch near Crawford, Texas, Friday, Aug. 12, 2005. McNeil, who served in the first Gulf War, says he plans to read each name on the crosses for the soldiers killed in Iraq to show support for their families. (AP Photo/LM Otero)

He was in full uniform, although the AP listed him as a "former" Marine. His "high and tight" is fresh though. Was he just posing for the cameras?
