What In The Hell?
Alright not really a case of stolen valor, but come on, seriously.
This still is from the Hallmark Channel’s new movie, “A Royal Queens Christmas,” which premiered on Saturday, December 11, at 8 p.m. Eastern. The movie stars Megan Park and Julian Morris. “A Royal Queens Christmas” was filmed in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and has a storyline the standard Hallmark Christmas movie, but this post isn’t about the plot, it is about the absurd portrayal of a military member, in this case, he is wearing a very modified Marine Corps dress blues. Using the dress blue jacket is one thing, but they had to put Lance Corporal chevrons on it.
Here is a large photo of the uniform and all of the absurd strangeness.
- Collar is extended (I guess he couldn’t handle the tight collar)
- Sleeve buttons on the collar
- Shoulder epaulettes are from Amazon – https://www.amazon.com/Epaulet-Fringed-Shoulder-Epaulette-Accessories/dp/B01LYF8SD4
- Sage green sash
- Stars on pocket flaps
- Buttons are on sideways
- Bottom button is from the 28th Kent Rifle Volunteers
- Never mind the unshaven look
- Red Felt added to the end of the sleeve
- Black leather gloves
