For those of you who couldn't make it to see the Old Man while he was in the Honor Guard, I found this great clip. This video shows part of the Evening Parades that the Parade Boy, as Grandpa Hancock used to call him, was a part of every Friday night. (Make sure to turn off the music on the side of the page before you hit play.)
To read a little more about the history of the Barracks and the Honor Guard visit: Marine Barracks 8th and I, Washington, DC.

This is some awesome footage. I only wished that I could have seen them do there drills in person. If anyone finds any more of this type footage, please post it or contact the Old Man's wife.
