Foreign Military bands and marching displays consider it an honour to be invited to the Edinburgh Military Tattoo.

[@harrysutton2097]

[@user-sv4rp4iz8l]

Brilliant, look at all those uniforms too!😋

[@Ellen24493]

Wow! That's precision and teamwork! Well done!

[@fijagorockabilly4527]

I saw this at the Tattoo in the early 70s... they actually brought out a side of beef for the soldiers to cut with their bayonets to allay rumours that they were blunt/not real!! Awesome

[@bakewell7284]

Boy, just got to love it! well done you guys! RESPECT...........

[@CallousSonnallous]

[@McNubbys]

The BUFF rufles🤣

[@deanmoriarty8468]

Just like Marines only literate.

[@LouieNeira]

…and not as impressive.

[@Jabberwok28]

I was going to say, who knew the Zoomies could do it almost as well as the Jarheads… almost.

[@deanmoriarty8468]

@@Jabberwok28 …and they somehow managed to keep their hand out of their pockets. Impressive for Air Farce pukes.

[@fijagorockabilly4527]

I saw this at the Edinburgh Festival in the early 70s. They actually brought out a side of beef to slash as there had been rumours going around that the bayonet weren't real..they were!

[@edwardlowe7260]

they get their hair cut the same way

[@fijagorockabilly4527]

Edward Lowe I’m even more impressed now!

[@WootTootZoot]

I tried out for the USAF Honor Guard in 1975. It was tough, your poo couldn't stink and they had no room for mistakes. make too many and out you went. I almost made it, but, family issues took me away from the finals and even though they invited me back I just didn't have the opportunity to try again. Would have been a hoot I'm sure.

[@dennissvitak148]

I was in the Air Force for more than 20 years, all on active duty. I went to the SRNCO Academy, as a MSgt, and was asked to lead the Honor Guard, for the monthly parade all Air Training Command bases had. Quite a cool thing do do, and yes, I tried out for it. Service dress on a damned hot August day in the deep south.

[@paveltezaur7476]

Nice

[@chieffirefigherplays]

I think 2020 one’s might be canceled. I don’t know. 50-50

[@crazyforcoffee5950]

Yep and so is the fringe festival and Christmas markets later in December

[@Rusch1776]

The Powerful of United States Armed Forces to defend our Democracy and the Constitution against Communist Party.

[@xichen8358]

The USAF looks good here, just loose the neck patches.

[@sanyu2972]

Congratulation the way turn around gun it is really good effective closer ememy for face in this way

[@andypandywalters]

You don't want to be unlucky enough to drop your rifle!

[@dennissvitak148]

They're not British...it's HONOR GUARD.

[@nobodyimportant6851]

When in Rome....

[@maku8075]

Needs more practice

[@someflipswhoguy]

why dont they fly their planes

[@KG84C]

Your kidding me, oh "brilliant" one.

[@ReformedSooner24]

Because most Air Force jobs don’t involve actually flying planes.

[@Bruce-1956]

Very, very impressive. If their pilots were as good, there would be no need for 'collateral damage' or 'friendly fire' incidents.

[@davidschwartz6380]

Ummm...every military, anywhere, have their friendly fire incidents in combat

[@JosephShambrook]

You think these fellas haven't accidentally cut their hands and legs whilst practicing this stuff?

[@rareacts9868]

Boring

[@WrldGer999]

Gay 😂
