    reminder it is alot less calm than this and this is a light form of propaganda as we have dwindling army numbers and this makes it seem cozy

    I am always fascinated by these. Sadly, I could never imagine one of our military units here in the United States ever learning, let alone performing, a native/first people's ritual from one of our many indigenous cultures.

    Really cool ... can't see any thing like that in Swedish army ... maybe the closest thing can be during midsummer, when most Swedish people dance around a leafed pole singing a traditional song about frogs to music from an old French army march song ... :) I would love to see our soldiers in uniforms do that! Also nice to see the all NZ-people no matter their origin performs the haka (like in your rugby team). Hope it can stay that way! Too bad that NZ is sooooo far from us in Sweden!

    Absent of the cultural significance of the dances...It reminds me of the false bravado instilled in U.S. Marine recruits...at least in years past...Such bravado breaks into a thousand pieces as they see their friends brains splattered across their own faces...Just sayin.

    Without a doubt, two equally deserving forces of history and the world's admiration and respect. In recent years, the haka has been so diluted by overuse by everything from rugby teams to children's choir groups. One grizzled US Army Ranger or Marine Corps E8 walking up alone, smoking a cigar, standing at attention, and eating that lit cigar will get more attention and show points.

    Seeing these two warrior cultures united under one flag must invoke the most unnerving sight that any enemy could face. That enemy would be well served to go a different route and live to fight another day.

    I chose to enlist in the U.S. Marine for among other reasons their emphasis on their history and warrior culture. Watching these two different modern warrior cultures reaching further back in time than my nation has existed gives me literal chills.
