  Which of these poor bastards drinks more? Went out with a group of Marine Silent Drill team guys once. Holy fuck, they drank like fish.

I'm assigned to the old guard and know a lot of the army drill team guys. It's hard work and a shit load of practice, you'll see them on the basketball court practicing before PT, and late night after release. Dudes are dedicated

There are 24 men in the Marine Corps silent drill team. Someday not too far away, I will be able to equip 24 men with Garands. Maybe I can come up with the ar15.com silent drill team. |

Doing that shit is hard as hell and very time consuming.
The Marines drink the hardest because thats what Marines do. |

At least the Marines' Garands LOOK capable of shooting somebody. |

I had a chance to talk with a Member of the USMC drill team while we were both forming up for a parade, and he allowed me to examine his Garand. Those rifles are specially made to be very noisy when manipulated. I very much doubt if they are safe to shoot.

Old guard buddy of mine said he snagged more pussy than he could count when walking tour at the tomb. Tourist chicks would stuff their phone numbers or hotel room #s in his jacket all day long. The tough part he said was remembering which number belonged to which girl.
