    I'm a U.S. Navy veteran. I fully respect ALL branches of military service that served our country. There's nothing wrong with heated competition that's a good thing. Makes people that much sharper. But I don't like seeing members of different service branches disrespect one another. That's wrong to me. As far as drill teams go ALL of them are great to me ! With my bumbling an stumbling they'd kick me off in less than a minute !! These folks train Very hard for long hours to do this stuff. So some one makes a mistake some times ? It's a DRILL team not combat, they can afford a mistake in this every once in a while. And would the person or persons that's never ever made mistakes in life please stand up ? The truth is we ALL make mistakes, I know I've made my fair share. So lastly what ever your branch of service Be Proud Of It !! Know that you did what many chose Not to do. Proud U.S. Navy veteran here ! God Bless you all and THANK YOU for your service !

However, in 1945 Stalin's Soviet army was full of girls who took the enemy by surprise by their presence and that's how they killed quickly.

      Yeah, right, see how much us Marines have to spin during their drill performance. No excuses, if you want to, you can do it. See when the inspector throws the rifle back during the first inspection? I still don't know how he manages getting that rifle thrown behind his shoulder like that and at that speed it's coming at you, I still don't know how that Marine is able to catch it. Its' fucking practice, you get used to slapping that rifle around so much and dropping it during practice, you just get used to it. We were in JROTC just doing a regular spin with the M1 and one kid slipped and hit his head and it split open.

    • @joshuaandrade5764
      @joshuaandrade5764 10 років тому

      Its all on how you want your routine. Faster pace (army) uses 1903, slower (marines).. all the branches services are capable of using the m1. Its just the 1903 works better for what they want. And I know a little about drill. Ive competed on a national level and have gone to multiple drill camps. Drillong with both 1903 amd m1s
