I would define harms way as the space between the marine and his objective.
No that is being in the way. However being there does tend to result in getting harmed.
I'm just worried that Obama is going to hang these guys out like Clinton did out guys in Somalia. If we are going to fight send enough guys and equipment to make a difference. If we are not going to fight, pull the heck out and don't wast the lives of the Marines. Wake Island might have made good theater, but is was a waste of good men. And God only knows we are going to need every one of them before this is all over.
