Marine Corps Silent Drill Team is better.

The Army's Old Guard puts them all to shame.



I don't understand the purpose of these displays. Are they part of
recruitment programs?

After reviewing all your comments in this thread, I can only conclude that
I was correct.

You wouldn't understand.

I thought you were a teacher. Is "you wouldn't understand" one of your
better classroom techniques?

I don't see that Harry has done that. I see the marching thing as another
form of musical theater, no different than a Broadway musical or the smoke

You certainly have the right to see it however you want.

To some, it is symbolic of unity, discipline, reliance and trust in one
another, common purpose and the pursuit of group perfection.

Not bad qualities to personify, huh?

I have no problem with that description. It also applies to a classical

Then I assume you can respect the pursuit of those qualities in a classical
orchestra and/or Aerosmith?
