I'm in this video and I still love watching it! Brings back a lot of great memories! And this was one of our best performances. We were in Norway for a week and did three nights. All for a full house! Let me tell you, we were all shitting our pants nervous! We executed what we trained for perfectly (except for one minor error, I won't tell you where its at!) We stayed with the Norway Army Drill team at their barracks and they were awesome. Nothing but love for the Norwegian people. They were some of the nicest people I've ever met. Anyway, thanks to everyone for all of the positive comments. It is appreciated!

This brought me to tears... just proud to be an American!

I was on the drill team while in US Navy boot camp in Orlando, Fl. in the summer 1987. We used similar techniques while performing during the graduation ceremonies. The uniforms, tassels, neck scarf, side slaps, rifle bunts, twirls. The climax came when the drill team leader walked through a synchronized barrage of hurled rotating rifles/ baronets. This takes long hours of practice and dedication- BZ shipmates!

Proud of my husband! He is in this video. I love watching this over and over

As a Navy vet my heart always swells with pride when I see these guys. Just a great performance.GO NAVY!!

Months and months of drill,drill,drill. What a TEAM! Outstanding!

I was a member of the team when I was in the Navy and all the training and prep was done during our off time. Yes, it was after we completed our regular work day. It took a lot of effort, discipline, time and dedication to made it and the pride after accomplishment is forever with you. The parade program is equally as impressive. Great performance. Be proud my Brothers.

Beautiful, outstanding, unreal. Lot's of hours of practice. I serve my country in the army and I know how hard is to do what those boys did. Respect from Romania !

brings back memories of the good old days being in the old guard,spend many morning and evening on the parade field from 1980 to 89,loved it

I was left in awe. Pure trust, precision and teamwork. Makes me proud!.....Go Navy!!!!

I did this in high school, though not with bayonets. There's a lot going on here. The most impressive thing is the consistency of the spins and tosses. Every member has to toss at the same height and speed and at the same time to get this effect. The choreography is pretty but it's the least difficult part. It also takes a lot of time to get just the basic spin down. This isn't like tossing around a dowel rod. Those rifles look like old Springfield's and their weight is not evenly distributed, plus the slings can make grabbing it awkward. Add to that the diversity of types of spins and tosses and you can see why this is impressive. Not necessarily useful in combat but it is a morale booster.

As a former Army paratrooper... I admit (grudgingly) that this was damn good. :-p

You must be proud watching this....greatings from Norway!!!!

OMG Masterful Simply magnificent These men are the cream of our crop. I salute them.

This Navy drill team should be on America's got talent season forever!

Best 6 minutes of American entertainment IV seen in a while God bless America.And our men and woman of our armed forces and there families. Thank you all for your service.

BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL ! Congratulations from Portugal ! An example of discipline, concentration, team work, and skill !!!

I love having Navy blood in my family. People always underestimate them, but really, they're the mature older brother of all branches. Go Navy!

A truly inspirational display of discipline, trust and teamwork.

The utmost respect. Thank you all for your service.

6:07 well looks like all of Norway is in attendance

Takes team work to make the dream work :) This is pure awesome!

I teared when the colors were presented. It is a huge honor to be chosen to protect the Flag of the US. That flag stands for freedom and these sailors are sworn to protect us and the Flag of the US with their lives. Its a grievous act to disrespect this.

This is one of my favorite drill routines,The Video is saved in my favorites for the past 5 years, the Squids did extraordinarily well with this one. As an Army guy I tip my hat to the discipline and training to carry off such a intricate drill with no errors or mistakes.

Gives me goose bumps... My late father, rest his soul, was a US Navy veteran from WWII, and I can feel him watching this with me, his Navy pride was so strong. No room for error, that's for certain.

Brought tears to my eyes. Thanks to all that serve!

Well done Navy. You make us proud.(USMC 1964-70).

It's not about how flashy it is. It's proving that they're so devoted that they will learn that whole thing, and pull it off perfectly.

An excellent display of Concentration, Precision and above all Discipline...... hallmarks of the Military

As a US Naval veteran I am so proud of these guys I salute them Show them how it's done guys!!!!!OORAH!!!! And they being a tear to my eye and I am so touched at the lovely reception by the Norwegian people Thanks Norway!!!!

That was insane......absolutely beautiful.

You are perfect in the drill. You make all Americans proud.

I'm Navy JROTC, and in exhibition we do stuff like this. I love the Navy. I will always look up to them.

Officer is a bad ass. Love it.

as a retired member of the 1st battalion welsh guards , i give you huge respect . the drill is superb .

I was a member of a squad that did this in 1966 at NAS Lakehurst, NJ.

It's amazing every time I see it - In person it sends chills up your spine

The M1 is also a challenge to just carry. Throwing 9 to 10 pounds like this really a skill.

THESE GUYS ARE VERY TRAINED AND WORKED HARD,Im astounded and proud

I think this is absolutely amazing - not only the officer has to trust the abilities of his men, as they are throwing their weapons all around him and pointing them at him, they also need to trust their officer not to move in some unexpected way, so they wouldn't hurt him. I'm absolutely awed at the show of their skills! And not only that - this whole video is a picture of badassery. I applaud you, guys!

Well done! Proud to be a Navy Vet and American!

I’m in the navy. And this is the best I’ve seen in drill

There are words to adequately describe the precision skill and patriotism demonstrated by these patriotic US Navy sailors and I'm glad that the Norwegians liked it.

This is really amazing, I love it. Thank you very much :-) It remembers me at my time in the German Navy Many Greetings from Good Old Germany :-)

I'm impressed... It's hard to look tough in those suits! Go Navy!!!!

Amazing discipline! God bless USA!!!

Thank you for posting this video. I wasn't aware there was a Navy Drill team like the Marines have. These guys are very impressive.

So proud of all these officers.!

I love this. My Uncle and his son was in the Navy. Very impressive!! Go Navy!!

This is so unbelievably cool, that it brings tears to my eyes! God bless our U.S. military!

You can tell behind the bearing he has to keep just how happy he is.

These guys are just started in the navy. 2 hash stripes is just above the seaman recruit. These men are very good.

Color or race doesn't matter, talent does, hard work does, commitment does, I'm proud of them!

The Navy has utilized everything from flintlock pistols to 16 inch guns in it’s over two hundred years of service to our country. The Navy has fought a multitude of land and sea battles in that time frame. The service, I assure you, is quite adept with firearms and associated drill. These young sailors performed brilliantly.

Superb 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🇬🇧❤️🇺🇸

absolutely breath taking!!! enables me to appreciate my military even more than I do now for all the men and women do for our country. Thank-you veterans and present soldiers for the job you do for our freedom! Douglas Radowick

imagine if someone dropped there rifle

that's crazy man, super discipline

What a fantastic display of precision! Very pound of all of you!

I'm PROUD OF OUR MILITARY

Amazing performance...definitely US Navy are impressive.

wow that is absolutely amazing I never seen anything like this..this is the most coolest thing I ever seen very nice

I love it. In the 1980's I was stationed in Anacostia Naval Air Station, Washington, DC, with this unit. It was a great time.

Gotta give credit when credit is due. Excellent performance !!!

This is what war should look like. May the best performance forces win.

It takes a lot of confidence in your men to stand there in the midst of flying razor sharp bayonets. Well done!

Our Navy is a lot more powerful than people give them credit for. I am a retired Army Ranger, but I will always appreciate the Navy.

According to Max Boot (2006), "To learn how to make soldiers . . . they updated the drill of the Roman Legions for a modern gunpowder battle field. . . . When groups engage in choreographed movements such as marching or chanting, a feeling of fellowship rapidly develops" (pp. 59-60). Although there are other methods, drill contributes to warfare by creating a sense of cohesion within a military unit. For the most part, I think every US veteran can appreciate this video because it displays hard work and discipline and even though these sailors aren't hard fighting men, their drill movements embodies dedication. Overall, drill is not meant to frighten anyone, it is meant to psychologically create a sense of belonging within a unit. Reference Boot, M. (2006). War made new: Weapons, warriors and the making of the modern world. Gotham Books: New York, NY. 59-60.

my uncle is holding the flag😊👮💟

Do not want to be at the receiving end of a bayonet charge from these guys xD

I'm Canadian and I love the American drill team.I give you all an A plus

I've watched at least 20 times, and it is AWESOME

These lads should be so proud; this is so impressive. Much respect fellas, from Australia.

Man/that's some sharp troop!

I love watching any branches Drill Team, they are all awesome!

Splendid, so proud of them.

Must say that those "SEAMEN" did a wonderful job...almost as good as the old good Marine Silent Drill Team. Thumbs up for those Saylors and their good representation of the U.S Armed Forces overseas with their drill talent!

Proud to be a US citizen, proud to be human.

What discipline and skill! I couldn't master a quarter of that in a hundred years.

SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL!!

Imagine how much it would suck to be the one guy who drops his rifle at the very end.

Badass! :D Their marching style is less formal and more flowing than HMKG. You should think that would make it less precise, but no. Not from these guys. The way the officer flaunts his unwavering trust in his men is a thing you also seldom see from other drill guards. All in all, awesome!

Brilliant work, thanks guys.

Wonderful, amazing, without words.

I didn't even know the navy had a silent drill team. Tight as hell too.

I'm watching this in 2019!

Brings back some memories...

Thank you for posting!

Norway favorite military and economic allied power I read Norway's and United States history apparently those two countries seems like there in love since they share the same ways there run a government except my nation has an elected president while Norge has a monarch Norway is my favorite nation in Europe

Genial, qué disciplina, sincronización, perfección. Realmente se nota mucho tiempo de entrenamiento. Felicitaciones.

Incredible precision. A masterful performance!

U.S. military is the best and finest in the world.🙂

MrTmn2401, are they good field operators? They belong to the United States Navy, the most powerful Navy that EVER sailed the seas. The U.S. is criticized for a lot of things, but one thing they do very well is military readiness and response. The U.S. Navy is more powerful than the next 10 nation's navies combined. There's no doubt that they are good field operators.

Amazing performance. thanks

great performance! thx for the upload

Well done tattoo. What I like here, is that it remains military. Unlike Topsecret for example, you can clearly see here, it is about showing their armys military discipline. Topsecret for example, has lost its tie, it's a circus act, you wonder if parkeur elements are going to show up next. You UH and you AH and you utter forget it is about demonstrating an armys discipline. This is Tattoo close to the bone, and it is topnotch. It keeps all old traditions alive, not forgetting, that this is an army you are dealing with here. What they show, is what you'll get if you meet them on the batlefield. Discipline. Army.

thats impressive

That was beautiful!

Great performance! Soldiers are great professionals! I am impressed!

молодцы очень круто
