No military personal are allowed ammunition unless in a combat zone or in training.
When I was on gaurd duty at the airport at Fort Hood, 1st cav, I was given two shotgun shell to put in my pocket in case I needed to use the shotgun issued to me, but, i could not keep it loaded.
Based on your experience, if the marines had such ammo in their pockets....would they have had time to load and use same?
And, therefore, doesn't that speak to the issue in question?
