Ah... it's all in just fun and games. That is what the Military is all about. All depends on what service you join. Like for example, if you are in the Army... it's known that you are lazy. Marine... you are dumb. Air Force... you are babyed. Navy... well, they are just smart Marines.
gekko... maybe you have heard of our "Old Guard". You know... the 3rd US Infantry Regiment. You know the ones, they are stationed in the Washington, D.C. One of the speciality platoons does a lot of D&C for show. Here is what they do:
"The Drill Team performs a variety of intricate maneuvers that have extremely high risk factors. One such maneuver is dubbed the daring front-to-rear overhead rifle toss. During the routine, four members of the drill team alternately toss their spinning, 10-pound rifles from the front rank to the back, often as high as 15 feet into the air and 15 feet to the rear. Then four soldiers in the back rank catch the revolving weapons with one hand in a true demonstration of courage and concentration. In most cases, revolution of the rifle ends as the bayonet arcs just past the soldier’s right ear.
Drill Team timing must be letter perfect, as all routines are performed without vocal cadence or musical cues. Only the team’s superb discipline enables its members to continuously challenge fate, and win."
An M4 Carbine... it's pretty much a smaller and lighter M16. Here is what we are using:
Shadow Fox, yeah I know we could go all day. Cadence, jeez the Military will do anything to keep you from talking. They will even come up with songs while you march and run so you don't waste time talking about things you want too. They control everything don't they.
Xantar... that was classic. I got a good laugh out of that. No really I did.
