Because they are carrying 03 Springfields. The Army had fully transitioned to the Garand by then, (with a few homefront exceptions and the occasional sniper).
Army troops in the Pacific soon learned NEVER to set their Garand down within 100 feet of a Marine in the field or it would certainly disappear!!
