The Commandant's Own

We had a special treat this weekend. We saw The Commandant's Own Drum and Bugle Corps perform a Battle Color Ceremony along with the USMC Silent Drill Platoon. We never get tired of seeing this stuff. It's always so impressive!


The boys loved hearing the marching music, and were mesmerized by the Silent Drill Platoon.



Afterwards, we got to meet the marines on the field, and the boys got a closer look at the instruments.




They are finishing up their "spring training" out here. Now they will begin their touring season. If you get a chance to see them, don't hesitate! You will enjoy it!

Wow,that is so neat that you got to see them. I wish I had been there, also, to enjoy their performance. It would have been neat to see the boys faces as they experienced this. How did the game go?
