I feel like M1 garand Drill rifles are a lot easier to use. They are centered more towards the center, making it easier to spin. The Springfield model they have are weighed with the main weights in the butt of the rifle, making it unbalanced.

Meanwhile, my team. “LEFT, FACE!” *turns right*

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.

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!

meanwhile my team freaks out when we have to enter from a different direction

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

Armed exhibition teams change their cadence and pace several times in order for diversity and it gives even better scores. Its quite good looking, my schools taken states in Florida and we do similar things just not as complicated. This team is exceptional and does an amazing job for the AFJROTC

The best performance from John Jay I've seen

I am in awe! So beautiful!!!

That was the best armed ex drills I’ve ever seen!!!!

This is so impressive. I’m an A team raider myself and a lot of the times I see drill team members get crap for no reason but this is amazing to watch

This is the best, wish my drill team had as much dedication as these guys.

Thank you for posting these Amazing young men...somehow it was recommended to me to view a Japanese walking drill program. Well, I can definitely breath a huge sigh 😔 of relief. Our military has most assuredly got our Beloved Country covered. This was incredible! I pray every night for our Military, Country and our President. 🙇🏻‍♀️🙏🏽🤔❤️🇺🇸🕊

Good times 😭 I was on the Eagles from 2011-2014. I remember when these kids first joined the team 😂 it’s good to look back and see how far they came!

As a new exhibition commander, I have a question to why their commander is within the squad and not commanding alongside them. Is that a choice to do so or is it based on something else? I am also viewing these competition videos to get an idea for our squad's routine.

Believe it or not but the routine is decades old just modified every year. A lot of it is based off of the kings guard in Hawaii. When I was on the Team we actually had the drill master of the kings guard (Donovan White) fly from Hawaii to Texas to coach us for a few days.

I'm retired from the Army. I've never seen anything like this. When they flipped the rifles on their knees????

Very, very well done!

Damn! Durmstrang in the Triwizard Tournament looks legit!

The infinity arms is by far the most impressive part of this performance.
