or other markings? In what way did he look like a Nazi?

across his chest. So, it was my opinion, it looked like a Nazi uniform to me.

He was also wearing Eagle, Globe and Anchor pins on his collar.

The OP's comparison of this person's outfit to the uniforms and military personnel of the Third Reich is obnoxious, unwarranted, needlessly insulting, and misguided.

looks like a Nazi? I was expecting something like an SS uniform or swastika tattoos. He looks like a Marine officer; to suggest that an ordinary Marine officer looks like a Nazi is incredibly offensive. OP should delete the post.

He was a lieutenant in a service uniform ("A"?) in that picture.

In today's appearance, he is a captain in dress blues. See video posted below.

Still doesn't look like a NAZI to me, but maybe a bit closer.

A properly adjusted TV does not show blue as black.

Here is the uniform he was wearing tonight……

seriously????

Really insulting post.

It’s a black uniform with that belt thing across his chest like I’ve seen in movies depicting Nazi uniforms.

Because the reality of the situation doesn't seem to match your impressions. He does not look like a Nazi, not even a little bit.

You should really consider self-deleting this. It's a ridiculous, ignorant, and offensive assertion.

he’s even stationed in Germany. I have never seen dress uniforms like that EVER.

That is one of the most ludicrous assertions I've ever seen on DU. I didn't think you could top the OP, but you managed.

Seriously, just stop posting.

did you watch the whole show??? Even during the final Jeopardy question, his answer even his demeanor was a tad weird to us. Did you see it?? I’ve got it on DVR, I’m gonna watch it again.

I get what you're saying about the blue/black uniform and the Sam Browne belt, but that's not that uncommon for a military uniform.

seen a uniform like that on any American military personal, EVER.

I find this horribly offensive.

Granted, I was willing to fight for your right to say ignorant shit... but.. goddamn.

Only thing not seen is the hat. He is properly dressed for an active duty Marine at a civilian event. I have seen thousands of these on and off base.

Your OP is really offensive.

You should delete it.

The midwest was settled during the Great German Migration. My ancestors, uncles, cousins, etc all look like him.

Hello

I hadn't seen before, I only remember dress blues. He was articulate, intelligent and thanked the staff members of Jeopardy for being helpful. I ended up rooting for him, The black uniforms may not be the best, but don't take it out on him.

The Corp has the best uniforms, hands down. He just looks like a Marine. There is a difference in the stance, posture and demeanor of the Corp. Even in civvies they kind of stand out.

My father in law was a career Marine.

The Marine dress blue uniform coat is black, or very dark blue. The trousers are usually white or light blue with a red stripe down each leg.

None of the U.S. military's uniforms look very much like Nazi uniforms, even bearing in mind that the uniform-obsessed Germans had uniforms for everything back in the day.
