A large group of U.S. Marines led a crowd on a patriotic run through Central Park early Sunday evening. The group, wearing khaki T-shirts and camouflage pants, jogged through the park, followed by hordes of people more colorfully dressed and carrying American flags.

The group that organized the event is called Unify USA. The previous month, Marines took over Times Square for another patriotic event celebrating the 250th year of American independence, in which they conducted a breathtaking precision rifle performance, going through a complex routine without the benefit of music or spoken commands but performed in utter silence. The crowd cheered as the Marines demonstrated their extraordinary skill, discipline and coordination in the center of Manhattan.
