If you need proof that the Marine Corps is full of complete bad-asses, just take a look at this video.
The USMC Silent Drill Platoon travels all over the US and the world putting on demonstrations of coordinated perfection the equivalent of the Navy’s Blue Angels.
Pay particular attention towards the end of the video when it’s time for the rifle inspections…
I’m a retired MGYSGT–I recently attended a performance of The Silent Drill Team–chrome bayonets and enameled rifles–It’s been quite a while since I had seen them–The chrome and enamel a bit over the top–reminded me of High School ROTC. The drill team doesn’t need chrome and flash to stand out
Spectacular!! I’ve never seen such discipline and unity of action before! I’m very well impressed that is no trivial exercise. Good on them.
