    To the people here commenting asking what this has to do with warfare. What does this have to do with warfare? not a damn thing. If youre looking for a video with Marines showing off what they can do in warfare theres plenty of moto vids on youtube with just that kind of thing. This is the Silent Drill team showing off some exhibition style close order drill. Theyre showing off precision and discipline which are two other traits the Marine Corps likes to pride itself on. Theyre used mostly for recruiting purposes and ceremonies, but the shit aint easy, so kudos to them. To the people questioning it it, I ask you all: Who the hell are you to question the way the United States Marine Corps conducts its business?.. Just pay your taxes and be happy theres no draft.. it always amazes me that people who have no experience with the military always have the biggest voices about how to make it better.

      arceyominyin from what I see they stating that if a enemy of the US forces us to fight we will kick your ass just as methodical as we do this. In the marines you are not a soldier you are one of the few the proud your are a marine.

    No fluffy hats or unnecessary arm swings, just a tight uniform with a smooth finish. It doesn't matter what these amphibious infantrymen do, they're a lethal force when active in a hostile environment.

    The Silent Drill Platoon first performed in 1948, originally as a one-time show, and received such an overwhelming response that it soon became part of the routine parades at Marine Barracks, Washington, D.C.

    I always love watching the USMC Silent drill, even as a squaddie I can appreciate the precision and movements that go into US Marine drill movements.
    The one thing this "silent" drill could do without is the typical sporting-event announcer screaming "The precision...the discipline uunnngghhh marines guh guh guh" and the "whoooo" from the girl next to the camera!

    As someone who served in the USMC. I first saw the Marine Corps Drill Team in Quantico VA in 95. 400 of them came out and did what they did. Only one of them dropped their rifle but you weren't aware of it until they left the field. It was impressive.
    My only advice is please, please change up the choreography. This has been the same routine for the last 20 years, maybe even longer.

    The very next day. Marines saw a huge elistment boost. I mean that as a total compliment. These marines on this video show it. I was in the Army till 08. And jumped out of planes. And I would trade all that to be the the guys in this video. Thats what sets Army from Marines. Discipline pride and tradition. Much respect usmc

    Brit here. Can someone explain the significance of silent drill? The discipline of these marines is extremely impressive but I'm stumped as to why it's necessary not to make any noise and not have an instructor call out commands. Almost all other examples of military drills that I've seen have involved a lot of heel stamping and have involved commands of some sort.
    Thanks in advance!
