DVD Review: HONOR AND GLORY
Summary: 5 Stars
SHOULD BE SEEN BY ALL FAMILIES FOR INSIGHT INTO WHAT WE DO AND WHY WE DO IT IN HONOR OF THOSE WHO SERVEDVD Review: Motivational video
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a Great video. It shows some older footage, but if this video doesn't get you standing at attention and marching through your house calling out cadence, than you have not served in the armed forces.DVD Review: US military Honor Guards @ their best
Summary: 5 Stars
A can't-miss dvd. Highly recommended for those who are into the discipline of military .DVD Review: Honor & Glory-America's Elite Military Honor Guard
Summary: 4 Stars
I really enjoyed this video. It was edited well and had some real history and insight to these elite units. I liked that it tries to cover each of the services rolls. I of course loved the USMC's Silent Drill Team; I did how ever thought it could have shown more coverage. The overall presentation was great, but to put it over the top to 5-stars in my opinion it could have offered more coverage of the pop & circumstance that often is associated with presidential funerals and obscure rituals.DVD Review: Honor and Glory: I was there
Summary: 5 Stars
From 1969 to 1971 I had the honor of serving with the Army's ceremonial unit in Washington -- "The Old Guard" -- which is one of the units featured in this documentary. The film does a masterful job of capturing the spirit and the essence of not just the The Old Guard, but the ceremonial units of all four of the armed services. The film's production values are outstanding, and it does a wonderful job of capturing all of the color and pageantry, and in many cases the sorrow and solemnity, inherent in the work that these units do. What it does best, however, is reflect the mentality of the troops who serve in these units -- the privilege they feel in serving, the gratitude and deep respect they feel for those whose sacrifices they honor. For anybody who sheds a tear when Memorial Day comes around each year, this film will deepen your appreciation, heighten your love of country, and give you a deserved sense of satisfaction over the way that we, as a people, are true to our promise not to forget out fallen heroes.
