    I was swimming underwater in a pool at night. Suddenly the entire pool went bright yellow. I was out of the pool faster than the marine went inside. There was a 30 foot tall metal structure near the pool. I'm glad the pool had its own lightning rod. It happened over 20 years ago. I remember it like it was 5 minutes ago.

      Unlikely unless they have changed the selection process. Marine guards are chose directly from BootCamp and go straight to school specifically for guard duty. Its a prestigious selection, but one made at the onset of their career. While they are both corporals, this selection is made from the highest performing marines in BootCamp (which are frequently one rank below corporal). By the time they make the public eye, they are corporals (so it doesn't look like a brand new soldier is guarding the president). My friend was a marine guard, selected in this manner and saluting the president at the door of the oval office before his first year was completed.

      As I understand it, if it really was bad enough to interfere with his work, he wouldn't have the job. He'd be put in a safer position with less triggers. Thankfully he seems put together enough with it for it not to be a problem. Since he came back to stand inside, he likely took a few minutes to gather himself before stepping back out. Reminding himself it was just noise and he was safely under cover of the roof.
