00:11.182 --> 00:13.349
center community and over 300 students

00:13.349 --> 00:15.182
from the area . The battle color

00:18.904 --> 00:21.127
platoon and the official color guard of

00:21.127 --> 00:23.182
the United States Marine Corps . The

00:23.182 --> 00:25.404
community gathered around the general's

00:25.404 --> 00:27.516
lawn to watch the infamous ceremonial

00:37.750 --> 00:39.810
palms elementary and palm vista

00:39.810 --> 00:43.380
Elementary . Honestly , if I was to do

00:43.390 --> 00:45.557
any of this , I would probably want to

00:45.557 --> 00:47.668
play the drums . I would want to play

00:47.668 --> 00:49.668
the jump because they make a lot of

00:49.668 --> 00:51.723
noise in honestly . I like to make a

00:51.723 --> 00:52.946
lot of noise . Yeah ,

00:54.240 --> 00:57.290
the Battle Color detachment stayed on

00:57.290 --> 00:59.512
the field after the performance to meet

00:59.512 --> 01:01.623
with the students , the Children were

01:01.623 --> 01:03.734
able to see their uniforms up close ,

01:03.734 --> 01:05.512
ask questions and play with the

01:05.512 --> 01:08.460
instruments . The highlight for us was

01:08.460 --> 01:11.180
cross our fingers . Is that the silent

01:11.180 --> 01:13.069
drill platoon and the band sticks

01:13.069 --> 01:14.847
around afterwards . This is the

01:14.847 --> 01:17.013
highlight of the Children . Be able to

01:17.013 --> 01:19.236
go up and see the human beings that are

01:19.236 --> 01:21.347
involved and make this their life and

01:21.347 --> 01:21.030
represent the United States and the

01:21.030 --> 01:23.530
commandant . This is absolutely pounds

01:23.530 --> 01:25.641
of icing on the cake though to follow

01:25.740 --> 01:27.796
and we relish this and we'll be here

01:27.796 --> 01:30.018
for a few minutes and this is where the

01:30.018 --> 01:31.796
kids already take with him . So
