Shaky dull in contrast and imagery 12,000 Marines sail for China to guard American Citizens. Military parade soldiers in uniform with their rifles on their shoulders as they march in formation down the street. Onlookers line both sides of the streets as the soldiers march by. American flags blowing in the wind at this time there were only 48 states and stars on the flag. Soldiers going up the boarding ramp with families waving in the background.
