I normally wouldn't send this kind of thing around. However, a former Scout and officer in the Philippine Scouts Heritage Society, Col. Mel Rosen, became very close to the Norwegian Embassy in D.C. subsequent to his tour as the US Military Attaché in Oslo. He and his widow, Olive, entertained at their home near D.C., scores and scores of Norwegians at Thanksgiving year after year. It was truly their own people to people program. Enjoy the show. --John John Pattersonwww.youtube.com/watch?v=7gS7iq3S1MEFrom the cloe up of the lone rifleman doing an incredible rifle spin. It looks like the riflemen are using M1 - Garands! Now I don't know if these are those light weight dummy ceremonial versions used in the silent drill teams in the US. Their performance is so inspiring to watch. Philip

They are garands. Pause it at the 3:42 mark.
