I'm in the Army and been to few balls but damn it man, that Sergeant Major got skills. Never been to one as cool as this one. Much respect. Awesome leadership.

Best SgtMaj I've had in the 20 years I served. SgtMaj Michael Miller, good guy, cared about people but didn't take shit from no one. He didn't play the political game but did what he could to clean up that unit. I'm thankful to have served with SgtMaj Miller. Funny fact, he actually got married that day, you can see him dancing with his wife Jackie towards the end of the video. Good people. Semper Fi SgtMaj.

SgtMaj Miller is a legend. He was doing what Marines do. He never lost it. Gotta get the party started. Semper Fi SgtMaj!

How interesting that with all of today's songs to pick from, they're still dancing to MJ classics from the 80's. That really says something. How many of today's songs will have that kind of staying power?

+Tanned Willie A decent chunk. Of course 30 years later we only play the hits. That doesn't mean there wasn't a tonne of utter shite coming out in the 80s. 30 years from now no one will look back and listen to the stuff you hate. Also I mean, 30 years ago there was far less choice in what people could listen to. Most people got their idea of good music from one of a handful of radio stations. Now anyone can go on KZread, Soundcloud, iTunes, Spotify and find all sorts of different songs from different genres. That's not to say MJ wasn't amazing, because he was, even at the time, hailed as revolutionary. Depending on the genre though, certain songs from the past 20 years have a lot of staying power. In hip hop, Dr. Dre's stuff in the late 90s, Eminem's stuff in the early 2000s, Outkast etc. still see regular rotation in clubs. Will Smith. From rock, Rage Against the Machine, Queens of the Stone Age, Red Hot Chilli Peppers etc. and then the odd hit like Teenage Dirtbag (which isn't going to go away for a LONG time). From Electro, The Prodigy, Pendulum, Nine Inch Nails, Daft Punk. Darude - Sandstorm even. In pop, a lot of Justin Timberlake's stuff survives, and Beyonce's (e.g. Crazy in Love). It's difficult to look objectively at "nowadays" because we won't know what sticks until we look back. It's also interesting to note that modern popular music is a lot more faddy. We make bassline/garage, make some amazing new sounds, do it to death until we're sick of it, invent dubstep, do that for a few years, get sick of that, invent trap, get sick of that and fall back into deep house etc, whereas in MJ's town it was lots of people making the same sounds for decades and slowly interating, and then we cherry pick the best ones.

Awesome job Sgt Major. You got work done. Kudos to all the Marines who allowed us to view this video, and most importantly. Thank you for your service to our country. Keep on keeping on. I loved it.

I'd dance like that too if I was E-9

Outstanding display of Camaraderie and enjoying the Marine Corps Ball. Nicely Done SgtMaj!!! Semper Fidelis

Awesome and great fun to see an E9 gettin into it with his peoples. I bet he will never live it down. Thank you for ur service in so many ways.

SgtMaj Miller is a Marines' Marine. And did I mention he can dance! Get em SgtMaj. Thanks for sharing Gabe!

This is the 238 birthday anniversary celebration of the Marines. The events are taking place at the Sheraton Convention Center here in Myrtle Beach, SC. This video is from last years event, which I worked as a Banquet Server. I have the honor of serving them again this year as the event is celebrated all month. They are having a great time and dancing their asses off once again!

Anyone saying or even thinking this is disrespectful are the ones that do not understand that yes these are soldiers but, they are also human. All our service man have earned the right to cut lose. Why do you think it is ok for them to fight for your freedom but, not their own? I LOVE THIS VIDEO AND HOPE TO SEE MORE! Amazing moves and this comes from an old lady.

You have taught me a lesson I will not soon forget trust me.

***** It is sad that so many (in every branch of service) have lost life and limbs so you could attack innocent people. If I was in the service I would never want you or anyone like you defending me. If you are in the service you are a coward hiding behind a screen name hoping your superiors do not find out that you are a pathetic person. We all know that real service men would never treat anyone with such disrespect for no reason unless they where needing a dishonorable discharge and mental health help. I can not help but to wonder if you are a member of the Westboro Baptist Church? As I said before I appreciate all branches of the service and have family in almost everyone as well. You however tim timmy if in any branch are a coward hiding behind a screen name hoping your superiors don't find out how you really treat people. If you are and are found out I am sure you are in fear of a dishonorable discharge and in need of serious mental health help. If you are not we will all sleep better tonight knowing that an insane person with a serious psychotic disorder is not out there pretending to protect us while secretly looking for ways to destroy us.

***** You are making a total ass out of yourself. Your throwing punches when there was no fight. For someone that claims to be a former Marine why are you attacking someone defending Marines? Why are you now wanting to talk about war, IED's, and real warriors? You should really step back, take a deep breath and reread your posts because you are the one attacking for no reason other than you want confrontation. You are trying to make me the bad guy for reasons unknown other than to you (or even you are clueless about it as well). How sad is it that this post went from me defending those in the service being human for not only fighting for our rights but their own rights as well to defending myself against you and your forked tongue. Had I been able to go to war I would have but, because I was not able I am thankful to those brave ones that did, have and are still there. This conversation is going no where but, in circles. You continue to attack me if that makes you feel better but, I will not play your nasty game anymore. I hope that if you are not in therapy you will soon be because you really need to find out where your anger comes from and figure out better ways to deal with it than to attack people that have done nothing wrong. Former Marine or not treating people this way is not normal or acceptable and you should be ashamed of yourself. You acting this way is not doing other Marines any good. If you care about Marines then you should stop telling people you where one or seriously get help.

Possibly the coolest Smaj.

SgtMaj and LCpl through Sgt competing on the floor. Now THAT'S GOLD! :D Oorah!

That Is One Cool Ass SgtMaj & I Guarantee Those Marines Respect Him MUCH MORE Than One Of Those Yelling, Stick In The Mud, CO's Puppet SgtsMaj That They Usually End Up With!! Semper Fi Warriors!!

Not only do they kill on the battle field, they kill it on the dace floor wooooooo. Looks like they dont only serve their country, they get served on the stage. Woooooo, one more, one more - they dont only drive the insurgents away, they also drive the crowd crazy wooooo.

well that's great,my SgtMaj just got shitfaced drunk and started running around with no pants

Good job and God bless you guys. This is awesome.

I loved it!! I am happy to see them have fun, they are after all human!

Nice Dancing.. Nice to see Marines having some fun..

The SGTMAJ schooled those young kids! Hah-hah!

Woooo SgtMaj. Killed it. Absolutely killed it.

I got to attend the Marine Corps ball in 2002 for Camp Lejeune. I can say it was an incredibly memorable event that I will remember the rest of my life. Mind you I was only 12 years old at that event and it was just like this video.

This is a must watch video! Especially on today!! It brings back MANY AWESOME memories of us busting out in FULL DANCE MODE TO IMPRESS THE LADIES!! Happy Veteran's Day! Carry on!! Pass this one on and let's make it GO VIRAL!! Carry on gentlemen! Carry on!

Someone give that man a medal!

Semper fi Sgt.Maj, show those Devil dogs who's boss!

SgtMaj showin us junior Marines how it's done😂💪

best video EVER...

This truly is amazing seeing these gentlemen having a great time. God bless them! They deserve to have fun.

This is the greatest thing I've seen all day. It put a huge smile on my face. Semper Fi Marines!! Happy 238th Birthday!!

It is so good to see these Marines having a good time!

I love him!! It is so awesome to see our great protectors be able to have a few moments of fun.

Not only can they kick your ass, they can also serve your ass up.

What a fun video!!! I lOVED IT!!! So nice seeing our servicemen getting down and having fun!

Awesome SGM..... Military balls are always awesome.

It's tough dancing like that in the Marine Dress Uniform. Even swing dancing in them is a little tough to do lol, memories of the Marine Corps Ball.

Some people were asking about the white trousers... If the ball took place before the seasonal change of uniform, then SNCO's and Officers would have worn white trousers (hence why all the Lance Coolies and NCO's are still seen wearing blue trousers). I watched the video again, and before the video even gets to the one minute mark there is a SSgt wearing white trousers, and an officer (upper right corner of the screen) wearing white trousers as well. Why would the ball take place before the seasonal change in uniform? Many times there aren't enough venues in the area to allow for every unit to hold their ball on or near November 10th. I wore white trousers to a Marine Corps Ball that took place on October 30th (1st MarDiv HQBn, MCB Camp Pendleton). It has only happened to me once in 16 years, but it does happen.

Uniform regs change over time and for the ball they're different from unit to unit. This was CLB 7’s ball, I know cause that was my 1sgt Miller in 2010 when he debatably killed it even harder lol. The whole Corps is getting softer especially this battalion at least when I was in. Was known to all the troops and most ncos as combat laughing battalion or cellblock 7. 29 Palms is the armpit of America, up there with the worst places in the country to live. On top of that command was garbage, had to relieve the bc right when I got there and ppl popping for drugs left and right. Was getting better but I gtfo that mess of desert yetis and yucca monsters. *cringe*

I’m sure you can also confirm, they handled punishment at the lowest level possible, mostly physically instead of writing paperwork for every little thing. I’m sure he had to party it up when he was a young troop to get down like that, now days he would have trouble making staff sgt with just an njp or page 11

Even Odds this was not CLB-7’s Ball, it was VMU-1’s Dining Out in June 2011. We deployed in October, hence the event. SgtMaj Miller left CLB and took over VMU-1 in January 2011. Thanks for letting him come over, easily the best senior enlisted leader I served with in my career. But still....29 Palms is a shithole.

Wow .. he is really good at dancing ..👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

It's nice to see them having fun. Loved it

Let's face it. The USMC kicks ass at everything.
