Yeah, right? And I’m really disappointed that they’re actually using fake “cadet training” rifles. It’s pretty sad, but we’re comparing them to unit that has a well earned reputation for its traditions and ceremonies. This definitely more of a show than a solemn demonstration of military customs and courtesies. But on the other hand they look snappy and well their musical selections are nice. Their Navy counterparts are setting up a synchronized swimming honor guard with women in mermaid suits. It promises to be even more entertaining. Of course they’re still working on getting the huge swimming tank on wheels to stop splashing out the water with the bumps in the road. The last test group said that it looked like the old sea world orca attraction with water spraying everywhere. The cleaning crew also ran out of the extra absorbent towels, making cleanup even harder. Oh well, I’m sure that they will get it right, eventually.

@@wilfredosoto2722 You're comparing a full-time force of regulars with real war experience to a conscripted army of 18 year olds whose main job is to defend an island 170 times smaller than New York?

@@SharkbaitOhLala actually combat experience has nothing to do with precision drill. In fact for a very long time the most of the soldiers in the US Army’s 3rd Infantry Regiment “The Old Guard” that is part of the ceremonial troops in Washington DC weren’t combat experienced soldiers. In fact, unlike some countries like the UK for example, the troops assigned to ceremonial duties in Washington, DC, don’t rotate as whole units. What the US does have however is lots of traditions and a very regimented adherence to them. Likewise, the only actual ceremonial changing of a guard unit is at Arlington, VA, and although there is a rifle and uniform inspection that is very precise and there is precision marching, it’s done with solemnity because it’s at the Tomb of the Unknown. There is no unit drilling about there, the drill units do their drills as demonstrations or exhibitions, not as part of a ceremony. When those units participate in ceremonies it’s just that, ceremonies, and they certainly don’t play pop music to their drills. There are tons of militaries that do the same all over the world. They can do what they want, more power to them, my opinion, and you’re entitled to your own, is that the fancy thing isn’t needed and could be better done as an apart from the ceremonial changing of the guard and not as a floor show. And FYI, I have served as a ceremonial guard for dignitaries, raising and lowering of Post flags on bases, and on funeral details on many occasions in the US Army in my 10 years of service, and I’m proud to have had that honor and privilege. No, there is no comparing these guys with the US Army’s, but there are others that come very close and that I admire. I’m not knocking these guys, but again they don’t have to be battle hardened troops to have a more appropriate and dignified presentation. They don’t have to copy the US military either, that’s not what it’s about. But check out the Greeks changing of the guard at their monument to their fallen. That’s most impressive. The changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace or Edinburgh Castle, the Swiss Guard at the Vatican too, all very impressive. If these had left out the drill team and had them perform separately somewhere else, the changing of the palace guard would have been more impressive. It’s like the drill team is competing for attention and there’s no need. That’s all.

@@wilfredosoto2722 OK

@@wilfredosoto2722 my guy wrote a long assed paragraph not knowing what he is saying and didnt give any sources

@@tankman1214 I didn't say that they were the guards I am saying they are kind of tainting what is supposed to be a beautiful ceremony

But it is a tradition that they flip rifles, so if you don't know then don't talk so much.

@@Thefoodofficer I do know. I work in this business. I am in the honor guard for an auxiliary of the airforce. Sounds like you are assuming that I don't know what I'm talking about. Tradition or not they are putting on an unnecessary show for a very serious event.

Wen Jie wen i am saying it is quite fishy or funny or whatever words to put it, it seem that it is better not to flip that little string for no gd reason and then that incident happen again.

Yes. It's a maxi-pad for necks. 🙄

Its quite hard becos ncc use dummy rifle that would weigh much less than the real mark iv that weighs 5kg.
