Great towers of ice sculptures of brown pelicans and flags of blue, gold, and black with a broken trident adorned the Barbados locale. First Lieutenant Austin Farrar looked the part of a United States Marine officer. His fade showed off his dark waves against his light brown skin. The contrast was welcome as it allowed for a chiseled face and a toned physique that just hinted at his muscles under his Evening Dress “A” uniform.
