Fan flippin tastic,!!!

While in the RAF in the 60s,I was part of the station drill team and took part in the routelining of Winston Churchills funeral,compared to those guys we must have looked like amateurs,I take my hat off to them,
 
Absolutely amazing. That must be years of practice to put on a show like that. RESPECT!!
 
The Italians also do it on bikes

Display team is brill BUT how did the Italians manage to procure a govt vehicle with NO REVERSE?? HA HA:tinysmile_tongue_t:
 
Fully enjoyed that. Amazing stuff, specially that part about throwing your rifle with bayonet back to your body at the back of the line. Must have hurt a couple of times during practise :tinysmile_twink_t: And that propeller bit with the rifle went a bit too fast for me. Anybody counted how many revs he did?
