Always Impressive



I have always enjoyed the USMC Silent Drill Team. I hope you do too.

I hated that crap when I was in boot camp! I will never forget the time we did it in the rain -- Just like Officer and a Gentleman only none of us were as pretty as Richard Gere.

They looked sharp though. Outstanding.

Me -- I screwed up, cheated, got caught, and almost cost my company a flag and perhaps get myself sent back a few weeks.

It’s a lot harder than it looks, trust me. I had the hardest time just getting 'in step'.

In fact I think that’s the hardest part. I don't think I ever got it right.

Right after bootcamp though whenever I was following someone (even civilians), I would automatically fall in step with them.

I had to reprogram myself to not do that!
