Army is king of cadence. The other branches can't compete with singing soldiers. I should know. I was army Fort Sill in 1982, and at the Marine detachment Fort Lee in 1987. 🇺🇸
I was in that same Batallian for my AIT! Tango Company, Whiskey Company, Bravo Company, and some others. But that white building that passes was JCCOE. I was in Tango Company, Oct 8-Dec 17.
Only I hade to walk in diamond fortation and actually had to march. I don't see anyone marching. I can't hear there feet. I would of had to do punishment for not stomping and marching.
You didn't dare look at the ground or look around when we marched...many times we would just march 10 to 15 steps and the MTI would stop the flight and say Cover.. and then he would say we will march this way until you get your gear in one sock...except he didn't say gear...you figure out the word he used. We got pretty good...better than this...and we were Air Force.
Can’t pivot like the DS was demanding because... I don’t know...maybe...JUST MAYBE...the pace is a bit fast...especially for the little end. Just saying.
Hmm, the Army sure has changed since I was in and retired! A lot of head bobbing, arm swings, looking around, soldiers missing ponchos, and chewing gum.
@@exploringwithkris4649 lol, nice. I'm enlisting in the Army in 4 months. I'm 17, I technically could do it now but I wanted to wait until I was 18. I've been working out like a mad man for the past few months to get myself ready for it.
The hell all these recruits can't even march. All kinds of people out of step. *edit* 0:46 omfg I just realized these recruits even more fk'd up. The uniform of the day in this formation looks like a soup sandwich. Some have ponchos, some don't, the ponchos are secured in different ways between recruits and at least 1 recruit is carrying a different piece of gear. 1:56 One dude's gear is loosely hanging and about to fall off. This Drill needs to uneff himself and his formation's sheet.
Soldiers of Nations belonging to the EU, march better than those belonging to the United States Army. The armies of EU member nations are also more homogeneous than our own. Just saying.
@@jed-henrywitkowski6470 Fun fact the EU didn't win The Cold War, WW1 nor WW2 w/o America doing a lot of heavy lifting. Homogeneous.....that sounds like a page out of an infamous nation's WW2 playbook.
I went into the Army after being in the Marine Corps. We stepped off to march and I was like the hell is this? That was when I realized the Army doesn't really march. They do this weird walking thing while doing cadence. I knew none of the cadence but if you just go ladi dada dada di, you're good. Lol. Army was easy, but I knew if I ever wound up in a combat zone I would hop there was a Marine unit near by cause otherwise we all gonna die.
I was a Marine, but i agree...covers at all kind of angles, boots (@1:03) looking all around....Gunny Olds would have uhm...i can't say in today's soft world what he would have done
