One one side you have the Islamo-nazis that are mooching hundreds of billions from us and use the proceed to support
Taliban terror to murder our soldiers and on the other side you have communist India who have been
the mainstay of the Soviets yesterday and today of the Russia of Putin Hitler.

Cant wait to watch them nuke each others...hope they choreograph the spectaculars as well as they do flag lowering ceremonies!; 10/13/10, 12:07 AM

her is a good example of what to do. They are practicing, so forgive the uniqueness with the shirts, they are drummers after all.

If you look at 1:48 all of the sticks are at the extact same height. This is uniform. This is on purpose.

The thing about the Wagah border crossing is that it is so much for show it is absurd. One side got a big plume and the other side got one. Then one guy did a crazy high goose kick so the other side tries to out do him. Oh Yeah! I can stomp louder and run ridiculously faster than the other side.

When is the escalation going to end?

The changing of the guard at the tombs of the unknown is chilling and amazing to watch. It makes me feel great at the sight of it.

I dont care who does well. I am just happy it is our guys kickn azz. USA-UAS-USA! This is why I sent it in.

They be sworn in prior to a baseball game and go to boot camp the next morning. One year we got the ceremonial guard to to perform. The Dodgers were the opponent that night. Tommy Lasorda filled in for the officer and stood there as the rifles/bayonets flew past his head. He was a really good sport about it. Hell of a show.

Go Navy!

toadold said...: Well considering the amount of space available to practice drill on the average Navy ship it is a bloomin miracle they found that many Squids who could do it.
Shudder, sorry I just imagined the sound of practice on a submarine, Clangety, Clang, IEEeeeeee, Clang, Thump.; 10/13/10, 4:21 PM
Anonymous said...: It's an amazing display of skill and dicipline. I also thought of Stripes. "Where have you been, soldier?" "Training, sir!" "What kind of training?" "Arrrrmy training!"

It also made me think of another movie. The scene in The Wind and the Lion where the Marines line up on the docks in front of their ship and march in formation, double-time through the streets of the town, past all the embassies to reform in front of the royal palace. The royal guards unsure of what to make of this spectacle right up until the Marines opened fire on them. Even if it was all Hollywood, it's a fine example of Western martial arts.
