Anyone can march. Marching in perfect sync with 50 other soldiers in formation is another matter and takes quite a bit of practice and coordination like any other group dance routine.

I've been out of the military for almost 20 years and I can still march to a cadence.

Active duty? They could march if they felt like it. They did not.
