Omg I'm so glad someone has finally video taped the Silver Eagles in action. I'm proud to say that I was a part of the 1986 - 1989 Silver Eagles. Im glad to see they're still bringing home the 1st place trophies every year. Once an Eagle always an Eagle. I'm wondering when they did away with M1s.
Now, this is what I call perfection, they literally did the cleanest group arm exhibition I have never seen before!. Wow it’s just satisfyingly flawless.
I became a drill team commander two years ago right before COVID. My freshman year there was no team except for one senior who was brigade staff, and nobody else was there. The year before him there was no team. Throughout COVID I bought my own drill rifle to practice and do whatever I could to learn, and now after my two and a half year journey working every day we have a full drill team that went to competition. Despite breaking both my wrists over COVID and having surgery to shorten my ulna and the screw protruding into my wrist locking against the bones in my hand and locking my range of motion so I could barely twist my wrist, was in a splint with no weight bearing activities until 4 days before comp, and 2 of my cadets leaving with no backups, we went to competition and did very well. Historically my school does horribly at drill, but since I've trained a full platoon, squad, two color guard teams, a drill team, and 4 individuals including myself this year alone, we've placed far higher than we ever have in decades. Watching these videos shows me the bar I want to set for myself and gets me through all the valleys and rough spots on my team. So far we have one cadet being actively abused by his parents, another deep in work, and another who split his upper lip open with a rifle and had to get stitches to patch a hole in his lip the day before comp, and a whole host of issues yet discovered. Every single one of my teams went through every hardship we possibly could have and yet we came out on top, and honestly I look forward to my next year, my final year of high school.
Damn, his face, he looks like he had been through hell, regarding that he just had to do a Exhibition Drill phase, which would have made him very tired.
This year, I became Drill Commander. It's also my last year in high school. I wish I could be as good as this. It would be cool if i could get my whole team to be like this. So much work and dedication was put into this. Props to those cadets. Great job!
Great job guys... there where so many times while I was watching that I was amazed at how in sync you guys where. It was truly difficult to find even on instance where the squad was even a hair off. You truly moved as one throughout the entire performance and I can tell you trained hard and it showes. So long ago In high school I was my MCJROTC Drill team commander. We where a new program but I can recognize you young men are truly a cut above. Keep up the hard work gentlemen and I wish you much success in your compititions
OUTSTANDING!!!! That's the most impressive, high cadence routine I've ever seen. This is a high school team!!! They make my college team look like kindergartners.
And my unit cant even stay on step
Never in my life have I seen an Armed Drill Team with passion, dedication, and pride as much as these cadets do. Wow
These guys just destroy our team every year, but we see it as motivation to be better. Great job to these guys.

This what happens when a former drill master works at a high school.
My school is always afraid to go against them

That was as close to perfection I have ever seen. Those you men were flawless.

They are even scarier and better looking in person I promise 🤣 They were my idols even tho I was unarmed ex
I'm not a Silver Eagle, but I've always wanted to meet their drill team - I'm a huge fan😂
