The pride in becoming a Marine never goes away !
Even after 59 years, Aye-Aye Sir !
lmao. that's so cringe. embarrassed for ya.
@Parma zyxwvu i'm not male. gross. only people who can't hack militia or find a job go into the military. it's so embarrassing to watch. (scary face emoji rawr).
@@legalfictionnaturalfact3969 and yet this kind gentleman is cringy for serving his nation?? GO BACK TO FUCKING DOGS YOU WIERD LITTLE CRINGY ANIME FURRY NERD
Legal Fiction Natural Fact guys its bait dont take it seriously
@@legalfictionnaturalfact3969 looks like we found a snowflake feminist... everyone run!
Pretty honorable that's for sure
13 years and I loved every day I was in. Semper Fi !
I will never forget seeing the Silent Drill team... Most spectacular event of my life!
I never get tired of seeing them and the help keep the pride alive in being a Marine. I was at an embassy overseas awhile back (not a great country) half the Attaches and others at the embassy and consulate in this area were former active duty Marines as was some of the DSS guys. We all went out had beers talked story it was like we were all in the same unit even though I hadn't met any of them before except the legal Attache'- We call it the Marine Mafia no matter where you are no matter how bad it is or gets if there are others there that wore the EGA you'll be taken care of- I see it all over the world al the time in every clime and place.
That is a live bayonet
Solen Glover yes
And it's fully semi automatic, the worst kind.
1:08 lol they smiled when they saw each orher
My favorite part..Oorah
Not even the most disciplined marines can hide their gayness

Our military is the best in the world, but I must admit, Marines are the best of the best. I wanted to join after high school, but chose another career I'm also passionate about. Thank you all for your service, USMC. We are the land of the free because of you brave people. Chesty would be proud of all of you.
I agree. They are special. A special force. A brotherhood. A force of one. Till we die.
Thank you, Brothers.
Look at the skills these men have👍🙏
WTF?! i know Lance Cpl Gonzales
Every 1 knows a Lcpl Gonzales
So much respect and admiration!! Thank you
You guys are the very very best in the world !!! Thank you all God bless!!! Getter done!
Absolutely incredible dedication and skill. Oorah!!
BEAUTIFUL. WORK IS BEAUTIFUL.
Awesome....................... Thanks for the video & Thumbs Up :D
My favorite part of the Marine parades!!!! 😍😍😍😍
I'm a Marine Veteran this platoon means Marine Corps to all of us.
Outstanding !!!!!
I think what you all do is very important. It exemplifies and demonstrates the excellence for which the Marine Corp stands. For organizations like yours (USMC) to survive and retain their glory, there needs to be a subset of people who drive those standards of excellence. You do that.
Outstanding Marine. Good shit.
Must be 8th & Eye Marine Barracks. Hats off to those select few!
The shot of spit shining the shoes takes me back many years......23 years Navy (Ret.)
They are infantry and have to be at least 6ft and weight 180
Naaaah the taller u are ur the easiest target
Yeah but they’re not real infantry.
@@russ8059 oh yes they are 110 percent Marines and don't you forget it!!!!!
Gary Quail I didn’t say they weren’t marines. I said they aren’t really infantry. They may have gone through SOI but they are basically poster boys that don’t actually know how to be a grunt.
Awesome, Semper Fi Brother 🇺🇸
much respect!
My daughter is a 1st Lieutenant in the Marine Corp. went through the course at Quantico she nearly died from heat exhaustion at one point we never knew until she had graduated how much men and women go through to become Marines. Should say I never knew my husband was a combat Marine. My girl is a very strong woman but she is also very feminine.... it takes a heart and tough mind to get through it..I’m so proud to be her mom..she loves her country. Don’t f with USMC. All you little boys out there that disrespect on your keyboard come take it and see what you’ll get!
As a American how could you not feel pride all the way down to your toes when you see the silent drill team,Simper Fi !
So cool
Muy interesante,me encanta.
I never tire of watching the best that's ever been performing their program.Real class that makes all Marines proud they wore the same uniform .
God Bless The Marine's..Military Marine Corps.
🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🌏🌎🌍🌹
Are those live blades??
Herper15 Yep
@@firemedicglm whats a live blade?
@@king_kable I believe it is a blade that has an actual edge to it so it's sharp and very dangerous.
@@WSSRIOTCONTROL i kno dude i'm just memein
You Marines...are awesome... semperfi brother's
Bravo sir....
SEMPER FI‼️🍻
God Bless All Marine's..🌎🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸☺🌴🌹
God bless you.
I bet u haters that u wont even mention about hating them in front of them
Who is hating
Hahaha yeah I would. And I have. They suck at doing everything that has to do with actual war fighting
@@russ8059 you have no clue !!!!!!!
Exactly. Haters are in the comments. Little bitches is all they are.
Jfc my head hurt trying to understand this
Thank God for our Marines. Old Marine here knows these men are READY. SEMPER FI. 0341
0341...60 mortars. ooh rah
My hero
When someone asks ‘Were you in the Marines? You answer ‘I still am a Marine just not on active duty’. Semper Fi. 50 years later. Once, Always.
Rocking5456 thank you for serving, 50 years is a long time!
God Bless The United State's Marine's..🇺🇸😇🇺🇸
Wow!😮
I first came across silent drill in a few good men yes I know it was the Texas A&M Fish drill team in place and there using the wrong gun but it is still amazing
Great warriors and there disciplines.
They are already infantry Marines, This refines their skills of disapline. Somthing you probably don't even understand. Untill you learn the true meaning of Honor, Courage, Commitment and the true meaning of their motto you won't understand this unit at all or Marines in general.
A clip of the drill would have been nice.
My husband served 74-76 with the SDP, and his sister stole his 24 coin from him. I have been trying for the last 25 years to find a replacement. Anyone out there able to help me with that??? Best I have been able to do is find a DVD of the history of the platoon, so he could show our kids. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Call the cops get it back.
If it was sold the buyer has to give it back since it was stolen to begin with.
Once a Marine always a Marine, 74-78 Semper Fi oorah
I was denied becoming a marine because I was too short. I became a Benedictine monk a few years later
Bob Bennett that's bs bc I know a marine who is 4'9 how short are you?
Back in the 70's I was 5' 4" and was told by a recruiter that they would eat me alive out there, that I was too short. No bs.
If you are happy and content in your work Robert.. Then you have found your true calling. Go in peace my friend.
It was probably more like "they'll mess with you for sure, being short, be warned" instead of a literal disqualification because of height. Marines are mean big or small.
And graduated to UA-cam commenter.
PHENOMENAL JOB MARINES!!!!
respect
look at those streaks on his left sleeve at 1:53
When i was in you volunteered for it when an renouncement was made. If they accepted you you was in. These guys are not purty boys, they are squared away marines. My point being they are simply marines. Nothing more, like DI's you just volunteer for it.No biggy.
How long is the duty for the SDT ? Anybody know?
How I wish I could of gone for this. I didn't go infantry and im not tall enough lol.
Marines..the best of the best
I.will bless all of you with my Native American.Spirt the Hawk.
How do you become part of the silent drill platoon.
1:08 yeah i see you there grinning, dont deny it. Its happened to me too.
Dam, the M14 is a beautiful rifle
Semper Fi!
May God bless the US Marines crops. May God bless the real heroes.
What’s the asvab score for this job?
This is Ted Sandiago and Dewayne Sandiago and we need a rescue from Siskiyou Base in Siskiyou county california. I'm stationed at Washington D. C. and need to be on Ft. Hood Transport Unit. Please call the President to set up a rescue. Ty Hooray
Holy shit. I was at that game. They f'ed up pretty bad too lol. One of the marines missed the tossed rifle and went behind his head and think it broke but im not certain. Nah, but mad respect to the SDP and all other drill teams too.
He's probably just trying to troll like others are. I wish I could have been a Marine. Love the corps to no end and will do anything they ask of me if I ever get asked. Have the heart of one, just not the physical body u.u up most respect to those who serve.
You arent one
Ever wonder what you'd get if you cross-bred the Silent Drill Platoon with the Radio City Music Hall Rockettes?
How hard is being one of this guys ?
I am not even in the Marines yet, leaving in a few days. My recruit just asked if I wanted to be in that and I said no. Lol
1:10. All smiles!
As of right now, I’m enlisted into the Marine Corps and I ship out to Camp Pendleton on July 13th. I know very well about the Silent Drill platoon, and I want to be in it very badly. But, I am too short, my recruiter told me the height margin to be in the silent drill platoon is between 6’0” and 6’3”. And I’m only 5’7”😢
Velryan Castro July 13th of next year?
xicor yep
Is this an MOS?
Well,it looks like you teach a good job.and wellness is always best.i do t know if I'd if taken off my wedding ring.but I think I were wearing o e I'd probably take it off too.thats so it would t break or damage.and a very good idea too.i herd your school was good and partnering in a buddy system sounded good too,and I'm glad they share.i wanted my son to think about so e education classes to further his training in his academics but unfortunately they said he wasn't able to because of his diabetes.and etc.tgis was personable to us,and felt declined.so I wanted to know if you have any ideas on that now.do you have education classes available for things like that.because passing it along to him would be a good idea and I think it's what is as any idea would be good.anyway you can in touch with me here.id like the response.again and thank you for you and all you've done.and what an honor to give of yourself from your very own.i like that you think of that.and feel if it's what you felt like doing only because you knew what for and when all comes to an end for good things that pass the respect of negative that how wonderful that was I hope everything turned out great.and I hope for the best in all.
I’m currently going through meps and they’re saying my allergies may disqualify me from entering. I pray to god they let me go.
lts Kas Why would you tell MEPs anything
JimiForReal cause I have chronic hives and I swell like mad it’s not something I can avoid unless I take my meds
Nyess!
SEMPER FIDELIS my brothers
Is this an mos?
Home boy at 1:07 couldn’t hold in the smile😂
Yes. You need to be 6' to 6' 2", an 03XX with no baggage. They only pick from SOI and in a very rare occasion they pick from Marine Barracks 8th & I.
What're you doing, sitting behind your computer?
Joined the best gun club to carry unlocked and unloaded and spin sticks around like the color guard in high school. G2G lance
What are you service or unfinished Buis
Semper fi
Best United States Marine Corps !! Im Rokmc
So they're not allowed to have a little fun during practice?
Good luck with Recruit Training. Remember, the ONLY easy day was Yesterday. Trust me, as a former DI, its gonna be hard as hell. Many have tried, few will suceed to earn the title of United States Marine. Good luck and welcome to our ranks!
These are Marines.
They asked me if I wanted to do this for a MOS since I am very tall...I said...FUCK THAT SHIT. Mad props.
how about that one marine who dropped the rifle in that one vid
Just asking, what is the point of silent drill??
Chad Yonish
The silent part is mostly exhibition; also serves as a recruiting tool I guess.

جميل جدا
I'm young but I want to be a marine when I am older. I am female and I know only males could be in the Silent Drill Platoon but I would really want to join.
I'm too tall😫
Fair enough, respect the military & law enforcement.
Do not fire upon the citizens of our country. Do not follow the ways of socialism.
Those that have power will pay; stay the course, We the people, need you.
Thats fine dude, I don't know nothing about nothing. I know my general orders and ranking...leaving for bootcamp this Monday.
I didn't know the Marines wore dresses, I thought I wore saggy pants when I was younger
