Two Soldiers are making their way through training

Two Soldiers are making their way through training to be color bearers for the Continental Color Guard @usarmy_ccg - During week two, they get the privilege of a a 90-minute "Stand". A Stand is where you get suited up, get your equipment, march to your post, (in this case) go to Right Shoulder on command, and stand there. Just stand for 90 minutes. The previous stands helped the trainees work up to this.

I did a few. Thankfully it was only a few, but not during training, they were ceremonies while I was in Europe. Speeches in Europe tend to be translated into several languages for all who are gathered, so you stand for a long time and sometimes a REALLY long time. All your joints stiffen, your mind wanders, sweat soaks your uniform, and your feet burn if the sun hits your corfams. After it's all over, you do it again the next time.

This is a screen shot from last year. We haven't watched TV since 2009 (we love it) so my readers send me stills and video from colors presentations all over the world. It will happen this weekend too. The Army-Navy game is once again upon us and the joint color guard will once again parade onto the field in front of untold millions and they will once again carry the colors in the wrong order just like this because of stubbornness and that not of the Cadets or Mids.

👉DoD Directive 1005.8 gives the order of precedence and it begins (for some odd reason) with cadets/mids to the right of their service branch and then the Active Duty, Guard, and Reserve.

👉But! AR 840-10 states no other flag is carried to the right of the Army departmental except for the national.

👉The DoD outranks the Army.

👉Change my mind.

Nice job, colors! A color guard from @mcasyuma presenting the colors at a local school. You never know what interaction like this brings and this team did well.

That is except for the left hands on the staff at the socket. "Ready Cut" means you drop your left to the side. If there's strong wind, "Bearers Ready, Two" to bring the left hand to the staff under and touching the right. You were a bit too close as you marched.

Still, the team looks trained and practiced.

@utahairguard - 151st Air Refueling Wing is Guard

@utahairguard - 151st Air Refueling Wing is Guard unit in SLC, UT. I'm going to do the ol' switcheroo and critique what is here and then go over their issues.

Initial stance looks good. I don't see the cinnamon roll in the left index finger, though. ⭐Right hand on the staff looks great. 👉The team formed at Close Interval (distance, really) and that means they had to maintain that distance during the entrance. 2️⃣⭐Consistent spacing for the presentation, but too close. ⭐Proper equipment. ⭐Hand placement is good. Left rifle guard's left might be a bit high.

#MakeUniformWearGreatAgain ❌Chin straps must be worn down. ❌Ceremonial belts are required. ❌But the biggest issue is that you are not carrying the USAF departmental. Just the US is authorized for regulation drill and certain very specific ceremonies. This is not one of those ceremonies. BHG colors teams must have the US and AF/SF. ❌Leather slings are not authorized. Web slings only. ❌The slings are threaded too high through the #StackingSwivel ❌Metal staffs are not authorized, only light ash wood guidon staffs with the flat, silver Army spearhead.

See the Tetrad members' feet? It's an accentuation of the rifle movement. Little movements like this are called Flash. They are just slight additions to a larger movement like the foot here, a knee bend, hand flare, elbow, even head movement. Flash can be in agreement (along with, same direction) or in disagreement (opposite direction, away from) with the original move. It can also be before, during, and/or after.

A pass-in-review (it's not "pass and review") for @det915 - Colors, where's the mandatory USAF flag? We do not execute Present with a rifle when marching in formation. The command is Eyes, RIGHT. Why would you assume that means Present? Unit commanders execute a hand salute, but that's it.

By the way, flight commanders and guidon bearers, you both are in the wrong place. Your positioning is the Army standard (CC centered 3 steps in front with guidon bearer one step to the left and two steps to the rear). Look at AFPAM 34-1203 in the parade section and you will see the proper positions (CC in front of first element leader and guidon bearer in front of the base element). Squadron commanders are centered (and guidon bearer positions with him/her if there's a squadron guidon).

Photographers don't always capture the best moment

Photographers don't always capture the best moments but those assigned to posting on social media don't have to post EVERY photo taken. This is another example.

👉Here, the colors set of the @usnceremonialguard looks very strange as arms and equipment seem to be "not right" for some reason. Well, the reason is that the team just finished a #ColorsTurnOff and is just beginning to bring the rifles and staffs to Port / #PortForColors on their next left step, the first step forward after rotating in place for four counts. By the time their left heels strike the deck, which was a split second away, they will all be at Port.

❌Nice job photographer AND social media guru.

I post about Unarmed #exhibitiondrill and then find this! God is good!!

Arm movement can be so very expressive. Let's take a look at this in context and see this performance from an exhibition drill team perspective.

👉I love this video. The creativity is impressive. But notice that the performers are on different levels so that the movements create a deeper impact on the audience. A drill team marches on a flat surface and the majority of the audience including the judges, are on the same flat surface.

👉The performers are dressed in black and the background and floor are also black enabling the color of the forearms to be the main focus throughout. A drill team must wear a service uniform.

👉The performers are static. A drill team must march for most of the performance and not remain static.

👉Your team can use the arm movements here but you must realize that the effects you create are going to be different. For instance a soloist cannot achieve the same effects. A tandem routine can have similar but very limited effects. A drill team (6, 9, 12, or more) will be able to achieve similar effectiveness with the moves performed here with the similarities increasing relative to the size of the team (the larger the team, the better the similar effects can be achieved).

Layer this arm movement over marching, especially a complex routine and you can have an incredibly effective and impressive performance.

A post about unarmed #exhibitiondrill - finally! A

A post about unarmed #exhibitiondrill - finally! Actually, most of my posts about exhibition drill are applicable to armed and unarmed. Anyway, this is about the Transitional Move/Position. Let's call this position the Mid X. This is a (relatively) middle of the torso position. A poor transition from here might be to bring both arms straight down and angled outward to each side. Why is this "bad"? Because of travel time it can look awkward and not as smooth as you might want. A better transition might be movement to a High X, Low X, or Praying Arms (hands and forearms together), something like that. Smaller movement is best when you are trying to achieve speed and a high level of excellence.

Back to that "bad" move of the arms down and angled outward to each side. What is the "fix" for this. Slow down the transition from one position to the other or add in one or two transition moves that help break up the distance the arms must travel.

When marching shoulder-to-shoulder, it is quite common to bow your arm to keep the feeling of touching your teammate. For some it just feels natural especially when team members are of different heights when one can fit under the shoulder of another- that's too close and you then have to maintain some distance without touching. The arm can give a false sense of distance, just be aware of that.

Who can march shoulder-to-shoulder? Color teams in DC, BHGs, and first responder color guards. ROTC, JROTC, and Active Duty, Guard, and Reserve teams that are not trained or authorized to march using ceremonial standards cannot march shoulder-to-shoulder.

Critique for Scotland High School AJROTC (Laurinbu

Critique for Scotland High School AJROTC (Laurinburg NC). I write these text critiques, would it help some if I were to use these photos and make a video critique? Let me know.

Using TC 3-21.5 and AR 840-10, here we go. ⭐Staffs are angled forward! However, the angles are not matching to the right. ❌All staff angles must be the same. ⭐Three of the sockets are at the same level, too low, but the same. ❌Why is the state bearer's socket higher than the other's especially the US? Not appropriate. ❌For the four-button blouse (what most call a jacket), the web belt must rest on the second-from-the-bottom two buttons and it must be tight. The harness socket frame should be just below it, depending on everyone's level. It looks like several of the team are wearing the belt on the uniform belt and not above. The uniform belt has nothing to do with the web belts when wearing the blouse. #MakeUniformWearGreatAgain ❌Chrome domes are still authorized for Army and Navy teams as long as government funds are not used to purchase or maintain them. No one else is authorized to wear them. ❌ Grips on the rifle: split the butt with the index and middle fingers, close the rest of the fingers wrapping them around the butt, and make a circle with the thumb and index fingertips touching.

❌Left thumbs must be BEHIND the staff at the socket. ❌Only light ash wood guidon staffs with the flat, silver Army spearhead are authorized. You grabbed a flag from a stand with the brown staff. ❌March and stand at Close Interval only. ⭐Timing is close, but there is a bit of phasing (one foot completely on the marching surface and others with just the heel strike. #DrillMasterMuscleMemory 👉Take a look at foot placement! A couple of cadets are pointing their toes straight forward - good. Others are marching with their feet pointing outward at a 45 - not good for 2 reasons: 1) it's TERRIBLE for your ankle, knee, and hip joints, and 2) the team is not using similar technique. 👉Guards, make sure that you are both swinging your arms. ❌

👉Glove color reminds me of getting my blood drawn. When you have to carry the colors and then run to the lab right after the parade. 🙂 ❌Gloves must be white.

Colors set from the @usnceremonialguard executing

Colors set from the @usnceremonialguard executing a #ColorsTurnOff which entails bringing the staff to Port as they step off and then eventually moving to #AnglePort

The veteran team looks out of place. They are completely outshined by the Navy team's level of excellence.

If I mention the POW flag being carried by the vet team the fecal matter will hit the rotating oscillator. However, why carry it? Your military veteran color guard and the military standards still apply. It isn't authorized to be carried. "We're no longer military." Then why are tearing military uniforms and following (some) military standards?

Ah, the Ross Volunteers of TAMU. They are a specia

Ah, the Ross Volunteers of TAMU. They are a specialty group that fires the three volleys for alumni funerals. I don't know why they would also form yet another TAMU color guard. There's the competitive team that constantly strives to meet and then exceed standards, the football game team that we saw in a video not too long ago and this RV team. These last two seem to ignore standards by grabbing whatever flags are available and carrying them however.

❌Here, there's unnecessary #HarnessSocketCrotchSyndrome going on and that's leading to the ❌US being carried lower than the TX. 👉Speaking of which, shouldn't there be an organizational flag there? I know, it's a school-specific team and they apparently create standards as they go, so I can't pin them down on much. ❌The guard's grips on the rifles are inconsistent. 👉The finials are not authorized for the military services and you are in a military type of uniform, it would be logical to have the team carry light ash wood guidon staffs with the flat, silver Army spearhead finial.
