That's was awesome. Thanks for the smie
I think it is wonderful that soldiers can have some fun and down time..they deserve to have fun. Do not forget they are all in harms way. So think about that before you slam our soldiers. Enjoyed the video very much.
What is the rotating circle on the video screen mean?
Go for it!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love seeing them unwind a bit
Absolutely LOVE this video! It made me laugh out loud. Thank you.
Great Video guys

Incredibly retarded !
They are not soldiers, they're Marines. Soldiers would not do that.
I stand corrected, they had one soldier... Sad day for the Army.
good job.
