why are you guys commenting on the USMC Silent Drill Team. This is in no way, shape, or form the USMC Silent Drill team. If you want to watch them, then youtube them!
Yes the USMC drill is the best (being a former marine myself) but for all of the people talking trash about any of the drill teams, I wanna see you do what they do. They represent their respective branches of service and if you have never served then shut up! Semper FI!!!
@RPGvidsTV Marine Corps Silent Drill Platoon uses M1 Garand rifles with fixed bayonets. These look similar but they're moving too fast to tell. Go the standsymphony (dot com) I think the USMC SDP's routines seem more profound.
Personally I was in the Navy, 8 years, and yes I'm proud of that, but I love all branches of the military because they are all Americans fighting to keep America free.
Just FYI...it's not OORAH, or HOORAH, or, OOYAH or what ever other misinterpretation of the infinate HUA...which stands for "HEARD, UNDERSTOOD and ACKNOWLEDGED."........just sayin.......
I keep seeing coments from people who must know nothing about the military. Of course these sailors can fight, but it's not like the Marines fight, or the Army. This is the Navy for pete's sake. Hasn't anyone heard of the Seals or the Iowa or the Enterprise? For my money... There is a polish and professionalism to the MCSDP that is not present in any other. But these Navy boys do great! I'm sure the Marines coached them, and they're in step not just walking in the same direction!
in high school i wasn't in njrotc drill, i was in the drill and flags for the marching band. But even still we knew some basic rules.... if you take a step and you are not in line, you don't take another step to fill the gap.... one step is one step! get in line at another time. Or else everyone will see your mistake.
I did this shit when I was 15 for a legion honor guard, with a REAL m1 garand. This really isnt anything special, their out of formation, their cadence is off, and worst of all their Squid Sticks...
To my "comrads" on their boats doing god only knows what, your straight friends from the marines, sincerely.
@X3ProductionsINC A REAL M1 Garand? Just because it's demilitarized, doesn't mean it's real, my friend. Same weight, maye a tad bit off from a firable model. M1903 Springfield weighs 9-10lbs, and M1 Garand weighs 10-11lbs. 1 pound difference? The only shift from these rifles is the structure. Give credit where credit is due, stop stereotyping the Navy, afterall, without them, where would the Marines be? (:
Yes a REAL M1 Garand, red tags and all, still fired real 30-06 rounds too.. a blank adapter later and theres your parade M1 that I threw around. Mine specifically weighed 10.2 pounds. I had a chance to throw around an M1903 (it was a juniors from a different squad) that weighed like 7-8 pounds..
Hold them during a ceremony for 2 hours and you'll know 2-3 pounds is pretty heavy haha
But like they say My Ass Rides In Navy Equipment (until next year) hahah
@X3ProductionsINC Sorry, first, let me correct my sentence mistake. I meant to say, "Just because it's demilitarized, doesn't mean it ISN'T real, my friend." Maybe this will straighten things out.
@pbfreak09 Of course you might have a little more mistakes ehen you are moving this fast. Marines are moving at a turtles pace and the're boring except on two occasions of there entire show.
@CarmeloRicarde its not nasty, it looks proper. especially compared to how the Air Force shoulders their rifles. they have them so low, it looks like your waiting for the bus or something
Cudos to those who participated.... for all those who commented with criticism...put up or shut up. These are the people that defend our country no matter what uniform they wear and God Bless them!!!!
Cudos to those who participated.... for all those who comment...put up or shut up. These are the people that defend our country no matter what uniform they wear and God Bless them!!!!
LCpl Johnson, This is NOT the U.S. Navy SILENT DRILL TEAM! ONLY the USMC has a SILENT DRILL TEAM! You should have been taught ATTENTION TO DETAIL in boot camp! I understand you are bios to the Marine Corps. drill team because you are a Marine. These sailors aren't exactly given very many commands like you suggest. They actually do a lot more individual rifle work than any other branch of service....including the Marines.
@TopGun8993 There are other other silent drill teams, the marines aren't the only silent drill team. The service academies have silent drill routines, so do most military colleges and prep schools. I'm not saying that the sailors here are silent, but still, they are good. Go Navy, Beat Army
The object is to enjoy not compare. I am a Marine and I like any team that shows discipline and coordination. I also prefer occasional commands especially when the public does not understand the lingo. My favorite thing about boot camp was the different language we Marines use in drill. Personally, drilling Army and Marines seems almost ordinary. Seeing Navy or Air Force at this level is interesting.
@bjworkid1 I agree 100% even though being a navy guy myself. My marine brethrens were astonished that I know how to drill in formation at all with them. I haven't drilled really at since boot camp 10 years ago. Sad...we navy need a page to learn from the USMC....
Hey genius, since you are are a Marine only in COD Black OPS, you wouldn't know know that the USMC silent drill team issues commands too, since all you have to do is click on their video right over there to see and hear that --------->
WENT TO A ENTIRE BOOT CAMP GRADUATION ONE TIME THERE WAS ABOUT 600 GRADUATES THERE WAS MAYBE 60 OF THESE GUYS THEY WERE AWESOME THERE WAS MUCH MORE ACTION - ALOT OF SPINING AND SEVERAL TIMES RIFLE TOSSING NEVER A DROP - WE WERE TOLD AT THE BEGGING OF THE 2 AND A HALF HOUR EVENT NO CHEERING NO OUTBURTS - THESE GUYS GOT A STANDING OVATION Ô¿Ô
@YOUNGFRESH803- First of all LCpl, The U.S. Navy drill team isn't a silent drill team. The Marines are the only branch that title themselves as a SILENT drill team. I get you are a gung-ho U.S. Marine....God Bless you, and thank you for your service. I'm a veteran too. You could show a little more respect for your fellow countrymen in the U.S. Navy displaying one hell of a rifle drill. It just seems your criticism of the Navy drill team is incorrect. They are NOT a SILENT drill team. Take care.
yeah im in high school JROTC we r starting an exhibition team. wish we were as good as these guys. there amazing. i especially wouldnt spin with a bayonet on the rifle either
@TheDeshi100 Placements don't reflect talent. Just because they placed higher, doesn't mean they are better. Michael Renn, a Fern Creek MCJROTC Alumni is the current world champion in solo exhibition drill. Does that literally mean he is the best in the world? No.
@Armed4Life07 Allow me answer you in several things. Does placement reflects talent? The answer is yes, the judges, judge on the merit of skills and talent. How could they judge the best team if not for talent and skills? Are the navy team that placed higher in the competition the best in the world? Maybe NOT, but one thing is for sure they are BETTER than those who placed below them.
As for Michael Renn, he may not be the best but definitely better than the rest who competed against him.
@TheDeshi100 Teams get screwed over all the time. 98% of judges don't even know what they are judging. Most of it is volunteer work from local military recruiters that know nothing about exhibition drill. You have a lot to learn. Don't worry, I understand where you're coming from. I also thought like that when I was a drill n00b myself years ago.
@Armed4Life07 - By your premise there is no way then to know who the better performer then. I'm not here to argue whether the judges know or doesn't know what they are doing. I'm merely making a statement based on people who posted here saying that the USMC (most of them) Army (some) and AF (a bit) are the best. Comparing those who posted to that of the local military recruiters as judges of the exhibition, I would go to the decision of this judges who are at least in the service.
@TheDeshi100 It's all mainly boils down to opinion, but not entirely. I've been drilling for 7 years and have an extensive exhibition drill background. Based off my experience, when I watch other teams or individuals drill, I know what I'm looking at, and looking for. On a side note, my former drillmaster Constantine coaches the Navy Drill Team. He had me perform my solo infront of the team in preparation for the National High School Drill Team Championships in 2007.
@Armed4Life07 Correct thats my point, opinion. You may have a better eye about the drill teams but the rest of who posted here are only basing on their biased opinions. Please read my original post again, it was intended to take away the "biased opinion" by informing them that during the drill meets the Navy has won 3 times and Army 1. This, I hope, will bring them back to earth and have an open mind about military drill meets.
@TheDeshi100 I've drilled with them numerous times and they were pretty cool. Somewhere deep down, I am partially Navy DT biased from my experiences with them. While I may be partially biased towards the Navy, I still don't think they are the best, even if they did happen to place above the other service teams.
@Armed4Life07 This is your assessment based on your skills and experience. That is not being contested by me, I'm however giving the others some information so that they will know what happened during the drill meet. Unlike you 90% of those who posted here doesn't know what to look for during these competitions.
@TheDeshi100 Look up the Norwich Shock Platoon and Fish Drill Team on youtube. Tell me who you think is better and we'll continue our discussion from there.
@Armed4Life07 This is not relevant to our discussion. You're assessment about the USN Drill team not being the best is not my issue. You sir are entitled to that. On the other hand I'm giving those posted something to think about whenever they say USMC or any service is better than USN.
@Armed4Life07 There is nothing to think about. Because they won once, doesn't mean they are the best. The Joint Service Drill Competition has only happened three times. It's first year, the Marines Silent Drill Platoon won. The 2nd year, the Navy Ceremonial Honor Guard Drill Team won, and in 2010, the Army Old Guard Drill Team won. The next one will be held in April, 2011.
@Armed4Life07 - I suggest you address your issues to the other guys who are saying best to all based on their biased opinion. I on the other hand is addressing the issue of being narrow minded opinions.
@Armed4Life07 - Bottom line, I would go to the judges of this drill meet. Judges who were from all the services who competed rather than to believe what the posters are saying here. At least there is a bit of a balance on the judging rather than those who are posting who they believe is the best. Belief that is partial and biased.
Very impressive with the solo rifle spin. Although I do have to say the white boot covers is a bit eh. Aside from that very good, I'm just disappointed peds didn't stop to look, those bastards.
I think they did good. Of course, I'm just backing them up because I'm a NJROTC cadet at my school (first year, and I'm already one of the top shooters on Persion Rifle Team) :D
im looking for any video of the drill team from 1984 to 1988. i was on it then and have no video or photos of myself and am trying to find some. thank you anyone who can help. PM me for my personal info you need it for verification. thanks
@YOUNGFRESH803 agreed! USMC silent drill all the way. father is a marine, im gonna be right there behind him. leave in 3 months to MCRD San Diego! OORAH!
at 05:45, the second guy from the center, to the right, il fait une erreure! the guy misses the side kick cause he didnt spin the gun fast enough.. they're still really amazing though!
i Love both the navy and marine drill teams but honestly id have to say the navy has a higher degree of difficulty, but the marines pull off their moves a little cleaner. If i had to say who was the best...well i wouldnt be able to, i enjoy them both, oorah
@NAvyC0rpSMan Agreed. They have a higher difficulty and bigger vocabulary of movements, but sacrifice precision. The Marines have a very low vocabulary of movements, but are extremely precise. Mix the two together and what do you get? The USAF Honor Guard Drill Team.
Some of you dip shits could not hang in a kiddy sand box. These young men are doing what most of you could not do. Much less hold your own dick. All of us that sign the paper and served. Have little respect for you who stay infront of your PS3 and play war games. 22yrs USN/RET.
These sailors demonstrate how its "all in the wrists". Now, if they can show how to load and kill with these weapons, then they can talk shit. Until then, they can go back home and tell the guys that use to beat them up in high school how they went in the navy to learn how to twirl rifles.
@Armed4Life07 Oh. Well eh I am not in the mood for arguments. Just my opinion. I like the Marine SDP a lot more. But I give the Navy it's respect since I can not do some of that lol. Its all great.
SarahNelsont ... are you joking. I've been on here for years, and you are the first person who I've ever seen solicit web cam on YouTube LOL They have adult chat rooms on Yahoo msgr.
@300MUSIC Placements don't reflect talent. Just because they placed higher, doesn't necessarily mean they are better. Michael Renn is the current world champion for solo ex drill. Does that literally mean he is the best in the world? No.
@jmorter How long ago did you go through boot camp with the squids? It must have been either way before my time or way after. When I went in 2000, the Gay ass Navy fired some laser tag shit and when my friend went in 2002, they also fired some fake laser tag shit. Aircrew school, I know they fire weapons but unless some shit changed since I was in (back in 2000), the Navy does nothing in basic training but march and fold underwear (one of the MANY reasons I went from Navy to Army).
the marines silent drill is more stiff not as fancy as the navy honor gaurd they just keep their drills simplified for better precision. I prefer the navy's it has a rhythm to it.
why are you guys commenting on the USMC Silent Drill Team. This is in no way, shape, or form the USMC Silent Drill team. If you want to watch them, then youtube them!

The next one will be held in April, 2011.

@Armed4Life07 - I suggest you address your issues to the other guys who are saying best to all based on their biased opinion. I on the other hand is addressing the issue of being narrow minded opinions.
Cheers!

@Armed4Life07 - Bottom line, I would go to the judges of this drill meet. Judges who were from all the services who competed rather than to believe what the posters are saying here. At least there is a bit of a balance on the judging rather than those who are posting who they believe is the best. Belief that is partial and biased.

i Love both the navy and marine drill teams but honestly id have to say the navy has a higher degree of difficulty, but the marines pull off their moves a little cleaner. If i had to say who was the best...well i wouldnt be able to, i enjoy them both, oorah
NAvyC0rpSMan 1 year ago
@NAvyC0rpSMan Agreed. They have a higher difficulty and bigger vocabulary of movements, but sacrifice precision. The Marines have a very low vocabulary of movements, but are extremely precise. Mix the two together and what do you get? The USAF Honor Guard Drill Team.

These sailors demonstrate how its "all in the wrists". Now, if they can show how to load and kill with these weapons, then they can talk shit. Until then, they can go back home and tell the guys that use to beat them up in high school how they went in the navy to learn how to twirl rifles.

If it wasn't for the Marines, there would still be a Navy. If it wasn't for the Navy, there wouldn't be a Navy or Marines.

@jmorter How long ago did you go through boot camp with the squids? It must have been either way before my time or way after. When I went in 2000, the Gay ass Navy fired some laser tag shit and when my friend went in 2002, they also fired some fake laser tag shit. Aircrew school, I know they fire weapons but unless some shit changed since I was in (back in 2000), the Navy does nothing in basic training but march and fold underwear (one of the MANY reasons I went from Navy to Army).
