Inspiration

The steady, regular marching step was a marked feature of Roman legions. Vegetius, the author of the only surviving treatise on the Roman Empire's military, De Re Militari, recognized the importance of "constant practice of marching quick and together...Nor is anything of more consequence either on the march or in the line than that they should keep their ranks with the greatest exactness. For troops who march in an irregular and disorderly manner are always in great danger of being defeated..."



How important is marching?

Vegetius explains that it was the first thing soldiers were taught. He writes that it was imperative that Roman soldiers could march at speed. Any army which would be split up by stragglers or soldiers walking at differing speeds would be vulnerable to attack. Therefore, the Roman soldier was trained to march in line and to keep the army a compact fighting unit on the move. For this, explains Vegetius, during the summer months the soldiers were to be marched twenty Roman miles (18.4 miles/29.6 km), which had to be completed in five hours

From Our Marching Products Catalog:

From Our Marching Products Catalog:
"Sound OFF!" Our best-selling book of time-tested cadence marching lyrics, including, “Navy, Navy, don't feel blue. The Army and the Air Force are fucked up too." Now available in 25 languages, including Farsi.

Official Marching Calibration String. Our all-weather, specially-formulated string is ideal for precision march preparation. Available in mauve, taupe and camouflage. Made in China.

Greek Army Marching Uniforms. Due to Greece's recent economic woes, we have a container load of surplus Greek military uniforms, complete with matching "bootlets" and skirts. (Note: Some skirts are slightly soiled. Camo no longer available.)

How To Salute Guide. Email for quantity discounts. Waterproof braille edition also available.

Bi-Directional Military Marching Gloves. Due to repeated requests from our clients, we recently re-introduced these Bi-Directional Military Marching Gloves. Military marching trainees will now have no excuse for failing to know right from left. They need only refer to their gloves. (Black is worn on the left, white on the right.) These long-lasting gloves are specially made for us from high-quality, virgin alpaca wool by an order of cloistered Carmelite nuns. Bi-Directional Military Marching Gloves are also suitable for use in “port and starboard” Naval training. (Note: These replace our “L” and “R” self-administered tattoo and stencil kits.)

Baron Friedrich von Steuben's Foot Balm. After a long march nothing soothes tired, aching feet like our specially-formulated, gluten-free foot balm. Now available in camo for dual-use purposes. Both edible and nutritious, the Baron's balm comes in 50-gallon drums or personal "mini" tubs. Please specify. (Halal version available in "mini" tubs only.)

Baron von Steuben's Drill Manual. (Reprint.) Learn from the master himself. "The Baron" is such an expert on marching that we named our foot balm after him. Enough said!

Subliminal Marching Techniques Slides. Similar to our popular “Marching Techniques Flash Cards,” these slides are designed to be inserted into March Right Inc.’s exclusive “Global Marching Techniques” instructional videos, or our clients' own slide-shows or Power Point presentations. Our research shows that flashing them on screen at between 1/16th and 1/12th of a second, at intervals of not more than two minutes, produces the best results. (Note: Subliminal training techniques are illegal in Qatar, Burundi, Mali, Kyrgyzstan and most of Alabama.)

Toy soldiers? Think again. Our clients, including several NATO members, regularly order thousands of these lifelike male and female replica marching soldiers to help them “choreograph” a major march. Available in white, battle green or camo, they are custom made for us by a severely autistic model maker in the Carpathian Mountains. They feature NATO-approved battle uniforms and SPECTRA ballistic helmets. (Limited number of models wearing Greek Army marching skirts and "bootlets" also available.) Washable, environmentally friendly and, for the large part, anatomically correct.

Military Ballistic Pantyhose (Marching Strength). Initially developed for North Korea’s high-kicking female soldiers (above), March Right Inc.’s ballistic marching pantyhose is now available globally. In mauve, taupe, nude, battle-green and camo, this durable pantyhose is long-lasting and march-ready. Specially formulated from a Kevlar blend and battle tested, it is non-reflective, fire-retardant and guaranteed not to chafe, pinch or bind. Also available in men’s sizes.

Customer Testimonials for March Right, Inc.

“I cannot praise the consultants at March Right, Inc. highly enough. They were professional, concise and extremely helpful. For example, they helped us develop a new, less offensive salute and spotted a fatal flaw in our existing high-kicking, Quick March. We heartily recommend their 1-day Webinar service for nations with budget constraints.”

--Rear Admiral W.J.C.


"A big “Thank You!” to March Right Inc. Many of my men in the barracks like to joke (at least I think they’re joking) that they “didn’t know their left foot from their right foot” until your very able Marching Consultant introduced them to your clever “L” and “R” stencils and self-administered tattoos. That alone has made a world of difference to our Close Order Drill. We hope to use you again."

--Gunnery Sgt. R.P.K.

(Note: "L" and "R" self-administered stencil and tattoo kits are no longer available. See our "Bi-Directional Marching Gloves" above.)


"You are professionals! Thank you again for turning our rag-tag recruits into award winners. And kudos to whomever at March Right Inc. came up with the idea of making Baron von Steuben's Foot Balm edible. That saved several lives during a recent "Extreme Marching" maneuver gone wrong. (Also: Love the chicken!)

--Wing Commander D.W.K.
