Silent Drill Company
THE HEART AND SOUL OF THE ACADEMY
This group embodies the ideals and aspirations of this premier maritime institution of the Philippines. They are the rare breed of young men who have been trained by their predecessors in the art of synchronized motions, snappy riffle executions and awe-inspiring coordinated movements. These young men consistently render outstanding performances making their heads and shoulders rise from groups of their own class.
