If someone asked you, "WHY ARE YOU LOOKING AROUND?!?!" when you wern't looking around, what would you say? Saying, "No excuse sir!" will usualy do you no good.

If you are at attention you do not answer because the POA requires silence... ;)

What I would say, and what you should say, would be two entirely different conversations.

I looked for location clues, and didn't see any, except that it might be a front plate optional state. There were a couple of cars sans front tags.

Its an example alright.

Assuming this is in-processing, both of those staff cadets have yelled themselves hoarse and it's only day 1.
Where are the adults?

I hope that is all that happend there.  I can recall having my stuff thrown out a second floor window.  Sitting in the chair, how professional, that lad needs to have a 101 with one of the DI'S at Paris Island :D.   There is nothing wrong with projecting your voice in a loud manner but rest of this stuff needs to be knocked off Nation wide.

Look in the background and you will see him.  Seniors can not claim they didn't know this was going on

Also the USAF person on the right, just a second or so before the end of the video.

Its nice to know that "EST" and other groups will have no trouble recruiting future sensitivity trainers......

If I could travel through time and space, and Cadet Sgt Major R. Lee Ermey there asked what I was looking at, I would have asked him why he was wearing a rainbow coalition yellow support bracelet on his wrist?.......He needs a therapist, a qualified senior member to watch over him, and a voice therapist to help him recover from the vocal nodules he is developing. Apparently, there are more than two things that come from Texas!

Major Lord
"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the iniquities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee."

I don't think this is Texas.

That is unless you are being adressed, then you answer the question.

I always answered that I am staring at infinity. If they ask what infinity is then that is 10 degrees above the horizon. There really is nothing that anyone can say about that answer.

I was taught that infinity was "Sky blue pink with a purple hue! Sir!"

I got a PM that said that this does not appear to be Camp Swift, and since Texas apparently requires front license plates, that this may not be TXWG.

Any detectives out there?

Because I do feel like a road trip this summer.

That looks like an AF... Lt. Col? Can't tell if he's a Major or Lt. Col.

Ignore, wrong guess.

Pics from the activity and the news article would jive with the video.
