Our Freestyle Exhibition Drill Instructors from USA
It has been 10 years but lest you forget these are the 3 gentlemen from USA AFJROTC that has helped us established the NCC Freestyle Exhibition Drill. It's an amazing journey and we have come so far in this awesome program. I am hoping that in 2017 you will really unfold your talents and show to the Corps what this program can do for the Corps. Long Live Freestyle Drill!
