FILE - In a Friday, March 17, 2017 file photo, a woman kisses a member of the U.S. Coast Guard during Saint Patrick's Day Parade in Savannah, Ga. The Army wants to halt the favorite St. Patrick's Day shenanigan in Savannah that for decades has left marching soldiers with lipstick-smeared cheeks. Roughly 200 soldiers from nearby Fort Stewart are expected to march in the coastal Georgia city's sprawling St. Patrick's Day parade March 17, 2018. Traditionally, women wearing bright lipstick dart from the crowd to plant kisses on the faces of passing troops. A Fort Stewart spokesman and the parade's chief organizer said Thursday the Army wants the soldier smooching stopped. (Josh Galemore/Savannah Morning News via AP, File)
