The Norwegian King’s Guard Veterans Drill Team showing world-class precision, discipline, and Norwegian pride. 🇳🇴
Look at how they handle historical 5.5 kg M1 Garand rifles with razor-sharp timing, keeping Norway’s military heritage alive through breathtaking synchronization and powerful fanfare. Service may end, but honour and excellence last forever.
Norske Gardeveteraners Drillkontingent - NGD are famous for using the American M1 Garand rifle specifically for their ceremonial drill exhibitions. With the attached bayonets, each rifle weighs right around 5.5 kg (roughly 12 lbs), making the aerial throws all the more impressive.
Honour, tradition, and absolute mastery. 🥁🎖️
