Why are they all wearing black belts? Did the uniform get changed from wearing white belts. I really hope that Corps politics hasn't gotten so bad that now FDT members are not allowed to pull out the white belts.
From the period of fall '03 till part way through the spring of '07 they wore white belts. In the spring of '07 (unfortunately after competition), I was able to convince the commandant to allow white cotton, and we've been doing it since. As long as none of the fish, or anyone else for that matter, aren't stupid, I don't foresee it changing.
dang for a ripple line that kinda looks like shit, then again they are fish and some of 'em weren't lucky enough to be on a drill team in jrotc in high school so theyre just now learning the tricks of exhibition
Oh, this is far from their best ripple. Also, when ever you get onto a college drill team let me know which one it is. Or I guess it doesn't matter, because you'll lose anyways.
why the flag spinning? just out of curiosity. and i never understood the purpose of a guidon 1/3 the size of a normal one. (i don't mean this as an insult, i'm just curious)
i love how that one dude just gawks right in front for a while

Anyone remember the Goss Rifles from NMMI...years ago. Ever seen them? Looks like they had a lot of influence on this team.

My roomate was FDT 2007. The actual guidon is regulation size, but the stick is smaller so they can spin and toss it for exhibition purposes.
