I agree. "Goose-stepping?" Yanks don't play that silly stuff. Too hard? More like it looks as stupid as it is.  And Abrams in Times Square? :rolleyes:

Here's how to celebrate victory:



If it makes ya feel better ... it's in Times Square. :D

Yep because they're weak and their legs will cramp. I bet you for $1 that they can only "goose-step" for 10 yards:D

When i used to be in J-ROTC back in hollywood high, we "goose-step" around the track carrying rifles during the "pep rally". "goose-stepping" is so hard that i can barely walk for a week.


This is how they expected us to look like while we are doing it. We cant afford small mistakes or else the whole thing will mess up

That's about what JROTC is worth.

goose-step takes practice (the hard way) but the results looks very impressive.

Does anyone know of an actual point to JROTC?  I'm not a big fan of ROTC (my Academy colors showing, I guess), but at least when people get done with that, they're officers.  What do you get for being in JROTC?  Nothing, as far as I can tell.  And Ike, no US military unit - by which I mean a real unit, JROTC doesn't count - has ever goose-stepped.  It looks dumb, because it is dumb.

J-ROTC is a preparation for ROTC.

we "goose-step" carrying rifles during the pep rally a few years ago here in hollywood high and i think thats the last time we did it.

LOL Grünherz; thanks! I've been looking for a pic of Coaltion troops under that 'symbol of victory'. You don't happen to have one where both arms/swords are visible, preferrably with an Abrams in the middle?

Oh I sorta think the Nazi/Coommie goose stepping stuff looks kinda cool. All disciplined and hard and stuff.

But I'd rather take soldiers that've used the time training for war rather than goose stepping to battle any day.
