Drill is an art of precision, discipline, and attention to detail. Military units have used it for Centuries to organize themselves. In modern times, the art is still instructed, but isn't a battle technique anymore, today, it is used to display how effective, and disciplined a unit is.

Unfortunately, the Wonderbolt drill team meets none of those standards.

For years the Wonderbolts have competed with other equestrian Drill Teams for the Celestial award, and always they come in dead last. This year, Soarin decides that its about time they changed that.

With permission for the Activation of the team given to Soarin with six weeks of the competition, he should have plenty of time to turn some rough Air-ponies into shining polished drill masters..

Right??

Nope. Wrong again.

This time, Its the only detachment available for the training, straight from the Wonderbolts reserve.
