On 23 Mar 2005, User:84.66.195.243 added "Wherever Army One flies, it is met on the ground by at least one Soldier in full dress uniform."
But the soldier in the picture isn't. Did this policy change at some point, or is it simply wrong? —wwoods 17:34, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Well, my thought is that is states "when it flies" as opposed to "when it flew"; that might be the caveot. Just my 3¢. — THOR 17:48, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)

- I think that means it is met by a soldier in full dress after the presidential helicopter lands. The soldier in the picture isn't in full uniform probably because Nixon was taking off, rather than landing. GoCardinal 01:57, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Army/Marine
"Note the Army Sergeant First Class standing at the doorway, instead of the Marine as usually seen after 1976."
This note seems kinda silly to me. Marines are seen outsite of the helicopter when the president lands because that aircraft is Marine One. They changed which service ran the aircraft, not just which servicemember stood outside the craft. Thoughts? — THOR 16:04, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Caption changed. GoCardinal 01:55, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
