These guys won 1st place at the International Competition in Norway.
They really know how to handle those rifles.
Thought you might enjoy watching them too.

Thanks One Shot, that was great video. My drum and bugle corp was fortunate enough to be in a parade in Chicago many years ago, and an army rifle sqaud marched right behind us. It was a real treat to get to watch them warm up before the parade.

Them drill leaders got cantelopes I'll tell ya. All them shiney bayonets flashing by em without so much as a flinch. I did note that they seemed very focused on standing very very still or walking at precisely the right speed.
We have a State patrol drill team that is really something to watch. I was impressed at how they will hold a garand straight out at arms length, thats quite a feat for a rilfe that heavy.
Sadly we mostly see them at officers funerals so I don't care to see them often.
Good videos you guys, very entertaining to watch.

we have probalby one of the fienst Harley State Police Drill teams in the U. S. They have performed allover the country at major events. They amaze me with what they can do with these 800# machines. I love to watch them.
Practice Practice Practice. I wonder if the garands are lightened up somewhat even, as they move them around like they weigh about 3 pounds....
I guess one would not want to be out on a cheap drunk the night before doing one of those precision drills- huh Bawanna Hope your feeling better. a good test is to just take your fist and hit as hard as you can right in the middle of the incision. If you don't crap your drawers, then it is healing OK. Honest try it and let me know. no charge for that advice either.

Thanks for the tip Jocko. I'm still at a point where I can predict the outcome and I know it wouldnt be a pretty picture so I'll wait a few more days for that trial.
I am moving much less painfully than I was, abandoned all the street drugs and trying to stay vertical for whatever that might be worth.
