I didn't even notice this until you mentioned it. That is uniformity.

They're trained to do that. I was there in 2000/2001 (not the drill platoon tho) but we were told the same. If you fuck up, continue as if nothing has happened. Most people won't notice.

@@feonor26 Quite so. Only the militarily minded would.

@@feonor26 Thats the ordinary guards. The drillteam have this "mess up" as a regular theme to get the audeinces attention. If you dont know this you are not a member of the HMKG, as they all know the routine... If you look carefully, the rifle is left on a space that do not interfare with the band or drillteams movement..

@@pegasus210563 I know this but that routine is done at the end of the drill and it's done at a show with actual audience, not on this event.

Bare hyggelig!

Yes, thats correct :-)

Depends on how you view it but when it comes to drill, 100%

Jeg var inne i 2000/2001 og da var det på Huseby så en gang mellom der

Noe av det dummeste jeg har lest...

All national drill teams are the best in the world.

Consider that they've trained for less than a year. None of these privates are professional soldiers. They are all conscripted for a one year service. Further more, this is the entire battalion, and not just the Drill Troop. You can spot the Drill Troop as they are the only ones using the old Garand M1 rifles, while the rest of the battalion uses the modern HK 416 assault rifle. Then there's of course the Signal Corps playing the music. The two other companies standing out are the visiting Swedish company (far left), and the company of HMKG Veterans (close left).

Approximately the same as not having the need to stay up all night because your worried about getting invaded

The queen of England has it aswell

How much does it cost to have a president? With guards and so on?

I've served in the band and I don't think the value of this can be measured in money. Most of HMKG is a regular infantry battalion and silly walk is just a small part of what they do.
