Being in Honor Guard and seeing this makes me laugh, mostly due to the facial expressions... what exactly in the hell is going on? It looks like they're all trying to breathe loudly in sync. Is this required for their manuals?
this video is not really meant for anything. a guy had it on his camera so i just put it up here. this is not what the drill is like just garbage they made us learn during training. fun times
when you are "rushing" or bvaing(basically going out for it) you have to do this thing called bracing while you do it. Basically you have to roll your shoulders back and stick your chin in your throat.
That's a funny way to strain. It's like half straining, pretty neat to see though. I took a trip down to the Citadel and liked the missle you guys had "pointing" at us. My stats profesor is a Citadel alum, he was on the Summerall guards, he described it, it's sounds pretty good. Nice video, is that Pagent-Thomas? -AM, VMI Class of 2011

this is training. this is what they do when they are trying out. the breathing helps time the routine, but its exaggerated during training.

Bracing is not half straining, although straining might be a 1/4 bracing...

@armormaster
Considering they are juniors, and your rats half half of a system, and straining is a joke, I would suggest you take notes.

I like this video. Looks pretty cool.
But, why do you make such dumb faces? Is it a part of the drill or are you just fooling around?

Up 8, buffer 8, six slide halt. I still got it. If you need an overweight, middle aged 2B2 man - I still got it. Guards rule.
