Spoiler: Just in case, have a reference image (click to show/hide)
Here, we see the iconic diving tower on the lake, while full of my extended family. Not sayin' which one is me.

First level, red shirt. Or the person beside Grandma-in-jumpsuit. :3
I was thinking the exact same thing, and then I scrolled down and saw your post. o.0

I may sound like an old man, but I am not an old man. Yet. :I

First level red shirt is my 80 year old, cypher-cracking, plane-flying Grandpa. Also known for his colorful fashion sense (you should see him in his Sherlock Holmes cap). Sirius was warmer.

Final guess is baseball-hat guy on top level. After that, I give up

Call me Maybe
I love this.

Me too.
If I could see the original video, I'd like to see how well they managed that. Seems to me like the Army isn't supposed to exactly be geared towards choreography, ya?

Funny as hell, though.

I always thought the Army (and probably other armed forces, come to think of it) would be good at choreography. They've gotta do all that synchronized marching, saluting, twirling those old-fashioned rifles around, stuff like that for parades and inspections. I wouldn't be surprised if a number of Broadway dancers were veterans.

Well, Canas doesn't have much in the way of angry facial expressions, so I had to improvise

EDIT: Our stealth camp apparently isn't all that stealthy.

Gregor sighed.

: "Little of both, I suppose. It started as just being the 'family business' as you put it. I was never very fond of my father or brothers for dragging me away from my books to smack each other with sticks. It's different now, though to what degree I can't say."

A thought struck him.

: "What about you? Is this your 'family business'?

I'm debating whether to have Gregor be grumpy during the next battle from lack of sleep:

: "What?! Whaddya want? Shut up and stop talking!"

or just plain sleepy:

: "Zzzzz...huh? Whuzzat? No thanks, I don't know how to tango...Zzzzz..."

Also hey, first face sprites. More to come later, maybe.

Gregor couldn't help but smile.

: "I don't know...sounds at least a little like the way I feel. And I may take you up on that offer one day."

: "So...how long have you been a spy? Or is that classified?"

: "Hmph. I don't know why Prixima cares so much, but keep that particular order to yourself, please."

Now that was a disturbing thought. He quickly changed the subject.

: "So while we're on the subject, what's going on with you and Ami? You actually seemed happy for once when you two came back from scouting."

That is pretty damn impressive, though of course it's still not to scale...

Well, no. A regular human wouldn't be able to control one of those without making it more of a mini-mecha.

: "Good idea, though I wonder if she can even see whoever that is from the air at this time of night. Perhaps we can find some tracks to follow in the morning."

He scratched his head at Chris' questions. He still didn't know what the sudden interest was, but at least the inscrutable spy seemed genuinely curious and not merely fishing for gossip.

: "Well, while I can't speak for Charlotte, I know I feel happy whenever she's around. Like the world is made just a bit better by her presence alone.

"And trust me, my family is hardly on the level of say, Lady Prixima. My father has some clout in the Menelean Army, and my older brothers are fine warriors in their own right, but it's not like we're nobility or even particularly wealthy. I suppose the biggest difference between most commoners and myself is that I had a chance at formal education before getting enlisted."
