On Linked in, my dad, Paul Chamberlin, said he graduated VMI in the late 1960s, he didn't, the mid 1940s....he found the book "The Indian Royal Marines"..at an antique store, the owner of the bookstore said that that book was the greatest book he had ever read, and it even seemed like a true story, but he did not believe it could be..

After graduating VMI, he saw the aftermath of WW2, which is when he stole the famous samuari sword, like 600 years old........learned ninja skills, he 1st used in Texarkana, moon light murders.......late 1940s, he started out in the USMC, was special forces, Us Army rangers, did artillery.......Tom Cruise, "Last Samurai".......a "Few Good Men", movie seemed to be a bit like me.........Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, whom i met in Hyattsville, as a kid, Katie that is....Rutgers street, down the hill from the 7600 Adelphi road house, towards the park, duck pond, which is at the bottom of the hill, skirts, University blvd...on one side.

Tom Cruise and my real dad Paul, .......met Kevin Abidy (in order to further ruin my life b/c of the assault on me and Paul Snyder from 2 of the 6 VMI football players who were drinking beer in the parking lot, 2am, Sunday morning, in 1993), b/c Kevin didn't believe Paul C was big in Hollywood, secret writer, director, 1st man on moon, anonymous, how he prefers it, low profile, high power...ok, but i don't believe u said Kevin Abidy, whose dad went to Georgetown law, Kevin drove a black mustang........which is why Paul C brought Tom Cruise, both short and handsome, Tom C is my dad's protegee.....

Silent drill team idea was taken from the book, "The Indian Royal Marines", as the British lord knew drill, trained the British Royal Marines, fused the Indians guerilla warfare, and the British drill into one of the greatest fighting forces ever, used medical science to heal the troops, they had silent drill....where my dad got the idea, the book he bought at the antique store,.......or as they put in a movie."i found a book once at an antique store, it looked like any other book, but do you know, it was as if i had written it myself"...what a story in early america!

The USMC Silent Drill Platoon was founded in 1948, though a one-time demonstration was first performed in November 1928. The platoon's overwhelming success from that initial performance led to its official establishment as a permanent unit in 1948. 

• Initial demonstration: November 18, 1928
• Official founding date: 1948
