Right after 9/11 my son (Navy) was deployed to Iraq - he was a Seabee and the Marines plowed the way for them. I am so thankful to all of our military sons and daughters - all gave some, and some gave all. My son made it through and came home - I pray for all of them to come home safely - will the world ever get the memo that not only is war Hell - but it also doesn't matter where you are or what country you live in - we all pay a serious price for it. When will we ever give peace a chance? Let's try - you never know - it may actually work! 🥰🤗💖💖💖
We were deployed to a combat outpost on the Iranian border and we got an alert the EOD what's coming in to set off some uxo and certain individuals hand in the mrap I stood there and took it in the balls it blew the colonel Iraqi colonel all the windows out On the Border and trust me this s*** ain't no joke😂
@@kiddetroit8403 Thank you for your service - I can't say that I know what you went through, because I can't even imagine what you experienced. I am so grateful to you and everyone else who served and are serving. You're the best! 🤗💖🙏
I am a rapidly aging "Army Brat" and I am brought to tears with pride in our armed forces. In this world of conflict and dangers I am comforted that we have such a strong and dedicated military. God bless them all, stay safe and be well.
So many Americans know about the Queens guards, but have never seen this. Our Military is amazing and we should be showing videos of this until everyone has seen them.
What queen ..I don't think so they know who is the queen. They didn't got in the human school ..not many knows the Latin Rome SPQR..the main origins of the international law House
That’s because our media doesn’t show it. You can only see this on special channels or at air shows. I love watching the Blue Angels and Thunderbirds. It’s harder to get to shows because budget cuts have affected how many they attend and social issues have decreased the number of shows. Take your kids and go whenever you have a chance, they are often free to attend. My favorite is Fleet Week in San Francisco.
As a proud ex-pat Brit living in the U.S. I agree. The Silent Drill Team are an incredible display of discipline, the equal (at least) of anything I've witnessed in my home country. Marines, both Royal and U.S., are absolutely top-notch! Semper Fi!
Thank you for your kind words and many of us here are descendants of the great people of the United Kingdom, Both of my parents and all my cousins are from your home country ❤
Britain and U.S need to stick together in times of woe, only way to get through. I’m from the other side of things, Britain/Germany, family in the military was based in Hamlin
Things like this always make me proud to be an American. And when I see the team of the blue angels, I’m half excited and half ready to faint. I think all of you pilots are absolutely wonderful.
I first saw the Blue Angels in San Diego at Miramar Air Force Base with my late husband, 6 year old daughter, and 1 year old son. I was concerned due to the loud volume for my children. They shouted with joy. That was 35 years ago and still one of the best experiences.
Retired Navy Chief Petty Officer and loved every day I served. The Blue Angels (Navy Pilots are the Best) Go Navy. The Marines Silent Drill Platoon is outstanding!
Remember that Marine Pilots are also "Naval Aviators" and have to qualify on a carrier, just like Navy Pilots. Usually there is one Jarhead on the Blue Angel Team. ❤❤❤
I had the honor and pleasure of being billeted off base in a civilian hotel at the same time as the Marine Corps Silent Drill Team. Once a few members saw me in uniform, they figured it out; a 41 year old Air Force 2nd Lieutenant? It was clear to them I was a ‘Mustang’, a term the Air Force doesn’t use. I had served nearly 20 years in the enlisted ranks before taking my commission. They passed that information through their ranks. Every time I saw these exceptional young men anywhere - in the halls, in the restaurant, on the base - they showed me the utmost respect and deference. They made it very clear that they respected me as a senior enlisted person, as well as respecting me as an officer. The USMC Silent Drill Team is an exceptional team of exceptional Marines who are also exceptional humans. I am proud to have earned their respect.
Your story brought tears to my eyes and swelled my heart with pride at the respect and honor our military live by. Thank you all for your service and protection! ✨💖✨
This is so awesome! Took my sons to a Blue Angels show at Miramar when they were little. We’ve seen their show every chance get. That was 45 years ago. We love them ❤❤❤❤❤
My son is ret. Navy, my son-in-law was ret. Navy, one of my older brothers was ret. Marine and the oldest brother was ret. Army, so I guess you might say we had all bases covered! I am so proud of all of us in the USA! And all those in uniform and retired!
Female USAF VietNam Era vet here! Of course I love the Air Force Thunderbirds and always will! The Navy’s Blue Angels are amazing and so beautiful! I Saw them fly together with the Thunderbirds to honor 9/11 and it was so meaningful and magnificent that all who watched cried! ✝️God Bless all our military personnel! We stood and still stand for our American beliefs and once we take the oath it is ours for life!
Oh my! The first time I have ever seen this. GOD BLESS OUR MILITARY. YOU ALL PUT YOUR LIVES ON THE LINE FOR US. THANK YOU FOR PROTECTING US AND OUR COUNTRY. THANK YOU!
Wow, just awesome! Love the Blue Angels! My BIL use to be a mechanic for the Blue Angels down in Pensacola Florida back in the early 70’s. Unfortunately he died of cancer at a young age. Such precision and world class! Go Blue Angels and show your awesomeness! ✈️
NO BODY else in the World can handle a Rifle like these Marines😊. I get goose bumps just watching !! So very impressed . England Troops cant even come close !! Love my Country🇺🇸 and Love our Military 💚 RESPECT 💚
DAMN SAM......those rifleman AND pilots...are STUNNING...their precision makes me want to CRY....why..??....the very CLEAR REPRESENTATION......of EXCELLENCE...!!!!!!!!!!!!
America has the greatest most disciplined military in the world, and those who refute it are few!!! You are the super power every country looks up to. It is a pleasure to watch your drills and exhibitions. Irrespective of what some governments do and say about USA, the people respect you and depend on you to protect the world from devious leaders and evil groups. God bless you from South Africa.
My dad served in WW11, his dad in WW1 I was only six yrs old when daddy passed away his dad before him I never got the chance to know either well at all God bless everyone who served and serving
❤ I love the blue angels. Watch them since I was a little kid. I even worked in a hotel and met them all in person. I have assigned photograph from all of them from the pilots decided to oversleep. And miss the show we had to get him there quickly. I had the state troopers, come and pick him up. And scurry his butt to the show because he overslept. As a thank you. They signed the photo and gave it to me front of the hotel staff. I told them they were welcome, but they really need to set 2 alarms. It's a memory. I will cherish forever.
I have been in love with military aircraft since I was a little girl in the 50’s. My father was in the Air Force and my next door neighbor served in WWI. They taught me all of the planes that were in use at the time (circa Korean War era). And the fascination has not waned!! I’ve been to many military air shows, had the stealth fly over my house and heard its whirling noise, had two F-15’s fly over my house with their after-burners on kind of low in the sky! (Shock and awe times) I was so excited I couldn’t contain myself!! This was when I lived relatively close to DC. I live in an area now (and where I grew up) where annual training runs are done flying low over my town and it’s fun to watch the dog fighting. To this day any time I recognize that what is coming my way in the sky is military, I run outside to see it!! There is a small cargo plane that passes low directly over my house once a week. Two weeks ago it was two. This makes me happy. ❤❤
Marines, best of the best. Others talk, Marines act. My brother Marine Recon. Yes I'm proud. He's seen action. Thank God, he came back. But changed. Bless all our warriors.
Saw the Blue Angel’s when I was 11 yrs old. I’m now 74 yrs old at Hamilton AFB, in California… my late dad at one point was a fighter pilot, have a picture framed of him flying in formation, from the 40’s
So much respect for my “jarhead” comrades❤As a retired Army member I remember having beef with any other branch of service…we always found or had something to razz another branch…kinda like college or high school rivalry, but believe me when I say, I KNOW for a fact that we were all brothers and sisters in arms, working together for the betterment of humanity❤This gives me chills👏🏽!
As I watched this video I felt a strong sense of pride and honor for our military men and women who are smart enough capable enough and a mindset to want to do this type of jobs, the long hours, the sacrifice they put together n to do their country proud.. thanks to all of those who has the skills to become our proud and honored citizens.. I loved this video I could watch them all day.. Thank you for all you do God Bless all of you and keep you safe.. ❤❤
Great video! Navy girl here, lots of ships but always enthralled by the flyers. The upside down ones at the beginning actually spun my head around a little as if I was in the jet! Could be signs of an unbalanced brain I guess. Thanks so much for the smiles and get busy on the next one!🎉
Pride comes gushing out of me when I see these young Marines! The Blue Angels flew over a family military funeral. One in the middle went straight up! I thought I'd faint trying to stand motionless. Amazed always!
I have seen the Silent Drill Team three times at the Evening Parade at 8th and I in DC. Absolutely stunning performance, every time. I saw the Blue Angels at an Air Show in Yuma in about 1981. I can't imagine how thrilling it would be to see them together, at one event. ❤❤❤
Hard to imagine the training…the talent & dedication to the process that lands these amazing marines a place in the Blue Angels. They make it all come together so seamlessly. It’s even harder to imagine the incredible thrill it must be to fly those amazing machines. Thank God for this cream of the U.S. Marine crop!
This brings back so many fond childhood memories, being on the flight deck with my Papa. He flew the very sturdy C 130’s, DC 10’s, actually, you name it he flew it, but his favorite was the “Phantom 4” Jet. He also enjoyed the B 52 long range bombers! Yes, I know the Air Force has “The Thunderbirds”…. After his 2nd 1.5 year deployment in Vietnam, I hope he is finally at rest peacefully….
** These guys make me feel like I have done nothing with my life. I have had regular jobs but there is so much out there that you can strive for and succeed.
❤❤❤❤❤❤ this was so magnificent as my daughter just took me to see the Blue Angels at our McMinnville Air Field, Thank you for showing the powerful details of our Military dedication, courage and love for our USA!
I remember Dad & Mom taking us to Moffett Field in Mtn View California to watch the Blue Angels Air show every time they were in town. Loved it! So proud to be an American!
I have a lot of connections to P'cola and I've seen the Angels there, but I'll always associate them with El Centro, CA, their winter home. I was stationed in San Diego and my best friend (even now as we close in on 75) was stationed in El Centro, so I drove the 80 miles often to visit. We lost a plane one week that crashed into a beef ranch. That whole weekend we had steaks, good steaks, breakfast lunch and dinner. One last tidbit: the Eagles song "Peaceful Easy Feeling" was written by one of the band's favorite songwriters who played a gig in El Centro one night and told his bandmates to go back to L.A. without him because this girl said she was going to come back and pick him up after the show. She didn't and he wrote that song while he was freezing his butt off waiting for her.
My youngest was stationed at Miramar & work on the C-130's. He had the opportunity to go up in Fat Albert. At one point in time they obtained zero G's. He said it was one of the coolest things ever!
Navy brat here, many cities many shows across country, live in Jacksonville, Fla now since 79'. Seen them many times and once home to The Blue Angels here as well. A Jet sits at the front gate at NAS Jacksonville.
Our family is full of Navy veterans. When I was little, my dad was in the Navy and his best friends were a couple Blue Angel pilots. Some of my best childhood memories are being at airshow with my Dad and those pilots.😊
In the 60"s the Blue Angels performed in my hometown in Illinois and my dad having served with the Navy as well had a little bit of a connection.... And one of their pilots who had been flown out in the smaller plane actually gave my brother and I and my mom a ride in the airplane.... It was so memorable.... My whole family has served and I couldn't be prouder of our military and just a thrill of seeing their show and feeling that it's such a young age is priceless
My fathers birthday was yesterday. He passed away years ago and he loved the Blue Angels. This video just came up and I’d like to think it’s a sign from Dad. I am also amazed with the precision and dedication it takes to fly this planes.
One minor correction - the numbers on the planes are not based on "seniority" - BA #1 is the squadron commander - Always. 2-4 are based on skills and which pilot is best suited to flying that position. BA #5 is the lead solo BA #6 is the 2nd solo. Each pilot is limited to a 2 year tour in the Blues. They rotate about half each year so there is a mix of junior and senior pilots. BA 4 may be "senior" on the team to BA 1-3 or 5 or 6. Just depends on the rotation. In rare occasions they will bring back a pilot or extend the tour - A few years ago one of the pilots was having health issues - ear infections, etc which affected his ability to maintain position - I think it was #3 or 4. They brought back the previous year's pilot for that position, since he was most familar with the show and team. They didn't change numbers for him because he was "more senior" than everyone else on the team - including the skipper.
I have a Grandson in the NAVY,ONE WAS IN THE AIR FORCE, SON WAS IN THE MARINES VERY PROUD GRANDMOTHER, MOTHER AND I PRAY FOR ALL THE SERVICE MEN AND WOMAN IN❤ THE WORLD AND I THANK EACH AND EVERYONE OF THE VETERNS, THAT ARE OUT ,THERE, YES AND I MEAN THE HOMELESS ALSO AND HOPE SOMEDAY ,SOMEONE WILL BE ABLE TO HELP THEM AND GIVE A HELPING HAND,SINCE IT DOESN'T SEEM OUR GOVERNMENT CAN'T OR WON'T HELP THEM!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤GOD BLESS EVERYONE THAT HAS OR IS SERVING THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART❤❤❤❤❤❤!!!!!
I have never served in the military, but I have countless family members who have, as a member of the Girl Scouts USA, there's a very enormous place in my heart for those who have given the ULTIMATE SACRIFICE for me to be safe! Thank you for your dedication my brothers and sisters past present and future military members 🎉
I sooo love the blue angels! Every airshow they were at in my area I went to. I got some great pictures of them flying Overton. My kids loved it. But I am a die hard fan. Unfortunately I moved from jersey to oregon, and we'll haven't seen them since. Miss you guys, your awesome!
I love the blue angels! Along with loving any airforce fly overs that I used to see in the Canal Zone! My biggest dream is to be a 'passenger' in one of these jets! What a damn thrill this would be as a senior citizen!!! Something that is on my bucket list that I know will probably never happen! I know that I would probably puke but who cares! The thrill would outwheigh this. I LOVE airplanes, always have since I was a child in the Canal Zone! Born in 1954. I remember the planes running all night at Albrook Airfield! It was like 'white noise'! When they shut down it would actually wake me up! My first plane flight out of Albrook when I was six we sat backwards! It was so damn thrilling!!!! I now live under a flight plan and just enjoy the heck out of the sound!!! Just wished I lived closer to the airport! How thrilling would that be? I just so love airplanes!!!!
Our military is absolutely amazing! Every person in every part of the military should all be so extremely proud of themselves. This shows the mechanics are just as if not more important with the strength they have in making sure their brothers and sisters have the best of the best when it's needed! Every American should be proud and grateful that we have the strongest military in the world❤

❤❤❤❤❤❤ this was so magnificent as my daughter just took me to see the Blue Angels at our McMinnville Air Field, Thank you for showing the powerful details of our Military dedication, courage and love for our USA!
I remember Dad & Mom taking us to Moffett Field in Mtn View California to watch the Blue Angels Air show every time they were in town. Loved it! So proud to be an American!
These displays of discipline, precision and expertise are fabulous and show off our military. I love it!!!
I have a lot of connections to P'cola and I've seen the Angels there, but I'll always associate them with El Centro, CA, their winter home. I was stationed in San Diego and my best friend (even now as we close in on 75) was stationed in El Centro, so I drove the 80 miles often to visit. We lost a plane one week that crashed into a beef ranch. That whole weekend we had steaks, good steaks, breakfast lunch and dinner. One last tidbit: the Eagles song "Peaceful Easy Feeling" was written by one of the band's favorite songwriters who played a gig in El Centro one night and told his bandmates to go back to L.A. without him because this girl said she was going to come back and pick him up after the show. She didn't and he wrote that song while he was freezing his butt off waiting for her.
The Blue Angels are a magnificent flying squad. I have seen them at many flying shows at U.S. bases.
My youngest was stationed at Miramar & work on the C-130's. He had the opportunity to go up in Fat Albert. At one point in time they obtained zero G's. He said it was one of the coolest things ever!
Great photography!
Navy brat here, many cities many shows across country, live in Jacksonville, Fla now since 79'. Seen them many times and once home to The Blue Angels here as well. A Jet sits at the front gate at NAS Jacksonville.
A positive military video been a while since I've seen one of these.
My husband did 20 years in the army. Very proud of him!
LOVED THIS! Thnx for sharing!
Our family is full of Navy veterans. When I was little, my dad was in the Navy and his best friends were a couple Blue Angel pilots. Some of my best childhood memories are being at airshow with my Dad and those pilots.😊
In the 60"s the Blue Angels performed in my hometown in Illinois and my dad having served with the Navy as well had a little bit of a connection.... And one of their pilots who had been flown out in the smaller plane actually gave my brother and I and my mom a ride in the airplane.... It was so memorable.... My whole family has served and I couldn't be prouder of our military and just a thrill of seeing their show and feeling that it's such a young age is priceless
My fathers birthday was yesterday. He passed away years ago and he loved the Blue Angels. This video just came up and I’d like to think it’s a sign from Dad. I am also amazed with the precision and dedication it takes to fly this planes.
Amazing video! Thank you! ❤️🇺🇸❤️
One minor correction - the numbers on the planes are not based on "seniority" - BA #1 is the squadron commander - Always. 2-4 are based on skills and which pilot is best suited to flying that position. BA #5 is the lead solo BA #6 is the 2nd solo. Each pilot is limited to a 2 year tour in the Blues. They rotate about half each year so there is a mix of junior and senior pilots. BA 4 may be "senior" on the team to BA 1-3 or 5 or 6. Just depends on the rotation. In rare occasions they will bring back a pilot or extend the tour - A few years ago one of the pilots was having health issues - ear infections, etc which affected his ability to maintain position - I think it was #3 or 4. They brought back the previous year's pilot for that position, since he was most familar with the show and team. They didn't change numbers for him because he was "more senior" than everyone else on the team - including the skipper.
I noticed this error as well. Also, Fat Albert pilots were noted as Naval Aviators. Fat Albert is flown by Marine Corps Pilots. Overall great video.
Always amazed with the discipline and precision of these wonderful men and women. Our son, also, Marine, Iraq. Freedom isn't free. God bless them!
Absolutly amazing. Breathtaking air show. Thanks for uploading this video.

I sooo love the blue angels! Every airshow they were at in my area I went to. I got some great pictures of them flying Overton. My kids loved it. But I am a die hard fan. Unfortunately I moved from jersey to oregon, and we'll haven't seen them since. Miss you guys, your awesome!

Old bf was at 8th & I and I still have his t-shirt from there. They’re amazing.
Watched these flying experts fly over Lake Shore Drive in Chicago from my condo unit window for many years! They are SO incredible ! God speed!!!
We are a great nation, hope we do not loose it to evil forces❤
I love the blue angels! Along with loving any airforce fly overs that I used to see in the Canal Zone! My biggest dream is to be a 'passenger' in one of these jets! What a damn thrill this would be as a senior citizen!!! Something that is on my bucket list that I know will probably never happen! I know that I would probably puke but who cares! The thrill would outwheigh this. I LOVE airplanes, always have since I was a child in the Canal Zone! Born in 1954. I remember the planes running all night at Albrook Airfield! It was like 'white noise'! When they shut down it would actually wake me up! My first plane flight out of Albrook when I was six we sat backwards! It was so damn thrilling!!!! I now live under a flight plan and just enjoy the heck out of the sound!!! Just wished I lived closer to the airport! How thrilling would that be? I just so love airplanes!!!!
Not only do we need pilots to operate the vehicles we need to have great engineers and builders of them!!! God Bless them all!
Fantastic video, thank you!
What bunch of show offs !! I love it . Keep up the good work . And stay safe .
Our military is absolutely amazing! Every person in every part of the military should all be so extremely proud of themselves. This shows the mechanics are just as if not more important with the strength they have in making sure their brothers and sisters have the best of the best when it's needed! Every American should be proud and grateful that we have the strongest military in the world❤
