Jim, I cleaned it up the address so it would work.

They're impressive. O0 I was wondering what he was told when he was assigned to the drill team.

10 lbs. doesn't seem like a lot until you gotta spin it. I've met some of those guys before.... they know how to practice. it's nuts to see it from 50 feet away.

I was on the Honor Guard when I was stationed in Key West talk about a lot of practice :o Twice a week and then every other Wednesday all day. Got a lot of attention at public functions if you know what I mean  ;). Wouldn't want to do it again. But... it was fun then.

Gotta love those NAVY guys O0 O0  When our son was at the US Naval Academy in Annapolis, we were priviledged to see the US Marine Corps Silent Drill Team in action at the Marine HQ at 8th & I in Washington DC. The Marine Band, "The President's Own", also performs in their Friday night show. It was probably the most stirring, patriotic, performance that I have ever seen. :) :)
