 * Support as nominator – Aviafanboi (talk) 11:48, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose Promotional posed image that adds little EV to either article. Crop lower right too tight too. Charlesjsharp (talk) 11:56, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose – Per Charles. Obviously posed for promo pitch. Lacks EV. – Sca (talk) 12:12, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * About the oppose rationales above: This is a ceremonial, show platoon, so posing and promoting is built into what they do and part of the EV. Bammesk (talk) 13:21, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * How does it inform the reader/viewer about the aircraft or the Marine Corps? Boring, IMO. -- Sca (talk) 13:27, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * If that's your oppose rationale, then put it next to your vote! Bammesk (talk) 13:30, 2 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Support. Given the uses, it's clearly being used to show off these platoons that exist for show. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 8.5% of all FPs. 12:35, 4 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Support – Bammesk (talk) 02:40, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Support – Vinícius O. (talk) 14:47, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose weird, distracting composition. Insufficient EV as well to justify FP. (t &#183; c)  buidhe  02:29, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
