On March 15, 2017 at 1:00 pm, the Marine Corps Battle Color Detachment will perform on the Peatross Parade Deck on Parris Island. The Detachment includes the Marine Drum and Bugle Corps, Silent Drill Platoon and the Marine Corps Color Guard.

The Silent Drill Platoon demonstrates a precision drill routine using non-verbal cues.  As you watch, the only thing you hear is the cadence of their rifles.

Enjoy the music of the Drum and Bugle Corps and the splendid display of the USMC Color Guard.

This performance is free and open to the public.
