And the US delegation doesn't appear to be Navy. I know Jarheads have piping on their pants but I think it's red. I think these guys are Army.

Not only that but no formal agreements like treaties, memorandoms of understanding or announcements of follow-up gatherings mentioned. A good but fruitless time was had by all. I'm sure China approves of the sterile gathering.
As my old Cajun bait seller used to say, "I opes you luck.

The Khmer brass isn't even trying to hide their contempt for the proceedings.

Well spotted, they are wearing class "B" army service uniform, officers have that "gold" stripe on the pants.

That's not contempt, that's how the average, contemplative Khmer male looks. They have what's known as 'resting bitch face'.

"Cambodian Navy"? That is precious. More generals than boats?

It's the face of officials listening to blah blah once again. The US guys are all looking at their very important notes on the meeting/texting a message to their wives. ;)
