<p>Retired Marine four-star General <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/former-defense-secretary-james-mattis-denounces-president-trump-we-can-unite-without-him/">James &#8216;Mad Dog&#8217; Mattis</a> tied the knot over the weekend — in a ceremony that was presided over by an Elvis Presley impersonator.</p>
<p>According to a Monday <a href="https://www.politico.com/newsletters/playbook-pm/2022/06/27/new-poll-voters-oppose-overturning-roe-back-court-reform-00042585">report</a> from Politico&#8217;s Playbook, <a href="https://dailywire.com/news/watch-general-mattis-jabs-trump-he-got-his-spurs-in-a-letter-i-got-mine-on-the-battlefield/">Mattis</a> — who most recently served as Secretary of Defense under former President Donald Trump — wed physicist Christina Lomasney on Saturday. The happy couple actually held two separate ceremonies to celebrate their nuptials — one before a priest on the banks of the Columbia River, and a second in Las Vegas with Elvis close at hand. The two reportedly met in a bar.</p>
<p>Robert Harward, retired United States Navy SEAL and a former Deputy Commander of the United States Central Command, served as Mattis&#8217; best man. Harward was also offered a position in the Trump administration — he was tapped to replace retired General Michael Flynn as national security advisor — but turned down the job.</p>

<p>People on Twitter had some fun with the idea of Mattis — whose Marine call sign was CHAOS — getting hitched by an Elvis impersonator.</p>
<p>&#8220;Shortly after this photo was taken, Mattis looked to his left, his eye began to twitch, and he proceeded to yell at Elvis. &#8216;Fingers extended and joined when making a knife hand, You!'&#8221; Army veteran Alex Plitsas joked.</p>

<p>&#8220;Free sequel idea for Baz Luhrmann,&#8221; NBC reporter Daniel Arkin <a href="https://twitter.com/d_arkin/status/1541790057836716038">added</a>.</p>
<p>&#8220;Incredible photo. The Warrior Monk finally gets married,&#8221; MSNBC columnist Eric Michael Garcia <a href="https://twitter.com/EricMGarcia/status/1541788041328615427">tweeted</a>.</p>
<p>Stars and Stripes Pentagon reporter Caitlin Doornbos <a href="https://twitter.com/CaitlinDoornbos/status/1541769809926529025">added</a>, &#8220;Imagine meeting Mattis in a bar. Congrats to the happy couple.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;No notes, this is perfect,&#8221; Task and Purpose Army reporter Haley Britzky <a href="https://twitter.com/halbritz/status/1541764078066188288">commented</a>.</p>
<p>US News reporter Paul Shinkman shared photos of both ceremonies, noting that Mattis appeared to be wearing the same outfit in both photos, while his new bride wore a different dress to the Vegas chapel — the Little Church of the West — than she did for the riverside ceremony last week. &#8220;CHAOS has one wedding uniform. Anything more is un-Spartan,&#8221; he said.</p>

<p>Military streaming network @Veteran_TV <a href="https://twitter.com/Veteran_TV/status/1541758935698489347">summed it up</a> nicely: &#8220;The newlyweds met in a bar and had a wedding ceremony with a Vegas Elvis presiding. This man is a MARINE.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Warms our enlisted souls to see there was a Vegas element,&#8221; @ZeroBlog30 <a href="https://twitter.com/ZeroBlog30/status/1541756901804867586">agreed</a>.</p>
