Sadly, all the Embassy people have been airlifted out.  And it is Marines who guard the Embassy.  

They weren't supposed to be in a combat situation, they were supposed to be keeping the mobs back and checking those who were legitimately leaving.  I don't know know if you have seen the pictures, but hoards of people are outside the gate - it's a mixture of those who have been told to report and those who would beg and plead to leave.  it's not orderly - these people don't queue.  

Did you see that there were a group of veteran Special Ops guys who went out into the city and rescued a bunch of people?
