Now, some of the songs that they'll be singing will be like, "I hear the chopper hovering, hovering overhead" and then you kinda get a little song going but you remember, as the beat kinda goes, you know which foot to throw down. And even between songs, they'll kinda stop 'em some times. If you start to get too far out of whack and you can't get back in line or the platoon starts looking sloppy and then that's when they'll start saying "Left right on left". They'll kinda break the song up or they'll keep the song going and then when your buddies might give you a nudge saying, "Hey, you know, get in the step." 'cause they get used to looking out using their peripheral vision, look to the left, look to the right but you're looking straight ahead. You got to remember all of this is a pacesetter. So, you all look uniform, you all look the same. And the cadence is actually--even though it's a set, it's actually a little bit of discipline 'cause the military's big on discipline. So, you kinda get your cadence right and get your steps right and it's kind of a pacesetter to show that you have the discipline to be able to keep the pace that they want you to keep and you show them that you can follow directions.
