Sent in by a follower! A very common part of the A Sent in by a follower! A very common part of the Army change of command is having the color guard carry the national, departmental, and then the organizational. National Guard units most often include the state flag as well. This is 1st Squadron, 91st Cavalry Division. The problem here is that ❌the color guard formation is not at Close Interval, ❌the harnesses are worn at their chins, ❌the LEFT HAND is supposed to be on the harness socket, ❌and the team should be wearing web belts. . . 🔆Education is 🔑! .. www.thedrillmaster.org When ordering @ www.paradestore.com use code T186816 @ checkout, thank you! ..

Therefore, they need to know the TC. ⭐The three-man color guard is authorized. It's perfectly acceptable bring mentioned in the TC. ❌Belts are required for everyone. ❌Guards, slings are required on your DrillAmerica M1 Garand rifles. ❌Both right forearms must be horizontal with a 90-degree bend in the elbow, elbow tucked into the side. 👉Saving the best for last: ❌This is the #HoboColorsTechnique for carrying your staff. If you were going for Trail Arms, the staff must be vertical. ❌A colors harness is required.

#DrillMasterBodyMechanics - Thai food! It was real #DrillMasterBodyMechanics - Thai food! It was really good, but the reason I'm posting this is that while I carried the tray/box to my truck, I realized that I've been wanting to post about this for several years. You carry something in your arms or hands that is away from your torso, it can be easy to let the object move from side-to-side while not using your abdominal and oblique muscles. I allowed the tray to move back and forth and then I steadied it as if it was floating. What does this have to do with D&C? Plenty. Replace the tray that I'm holding in this photo with a rifle at Port or Shoulder, a guidon staff at Carry, or a flagstaff at Port. Equipment is not supposed to move. Engage your muscles. 👉The shirt is a quote from the movie, #TheyLive - Made decades ago but relevant for what we are going through today.

There's the position of Attention and then there's There's the position of Attention and then there's Super Attention. Chest (abdomen in this case) out, arms bent too much, shoulders back. Just stand straight. 👉If you don't know that you are doing something wrong as is probably the case with this TSgt, then you will never know until someone gives you feedback. Just sitting on the sidelines and keeping your mouth closed doesn't do any good. However, at a ceremony isn't the right time, after isso that the individual has time to work on the issue. 👉You receiving feedback and getting bent out of shape means that you are selfish, arrogant, think yourself better than others, or all three. 👉There is a danger with certain organizations preaching that once you join, you are the "best of the best" or if you are trained by them, you are "elite of the elite". The trouble is that statements like those play on weak minds and the people tend to believe it and arrogance takes hold. Therefore, that individual creates problems for others for the rest of their lives, possibly. 👉You are not the "best of the best"... yada, yada, yada. You probably have an affinity for D&C and can pick up techniques easily and do well. That's a blessing from God and not a source of pride.

Shoulder Arms was the command long ago and led to this, but the small of the musket stock was held in between the middle and index fingers.

The hawk outside our house wasn't screaming at 053 The hawk outside our house wasn't screaming at 0530 this morning so I got some more recording done! After talking with Mrs. DrillMaster this morning about a revelation that I had, I FINALLY have a better training "map" for my #DrillmasterOnlineTraining - there are four levels and different blocks of training in each level. Progress through is at your own pace. My vision is to have a classroom full of of trainees and going through each block of training one-by-one and ensuring every trainee has a good understanding before moving on to the next block. I'm attempting to build everything into each block plus, there will be a workbook that will go with each level and block. It's a complete training system based on in-depth study into all the applicable service manuals. Which reminds me: in-depth study exposes all kinds of inconsistencies and lack of explanation. . . 🔆Education is 🔑! .. www.thedrillmaster.org When ordering @ www.paradestore.com use code T186816 @ checkout, thank you! ..

Sent in by a follower! This is the G7 summit color Sent in by a follower! This is the G7 summit color guard at RAF Mildenhall in Suffolk (UK). My first base was RAF Upper Heyford and I went to Mildenhall once for something. Anyway, 👍Nice job team except for ❌the USAF bearer holding the flag material to the staff, unless you used a ton of spray starch... You should not have dipped so low. Less of an angle is called for when the audience or an object (the stations) is so close. 👉It makes me wonder if all of the bearers are holding their flag material as well. 🚩Lead guard's cover is angled strangely. ❌Chin straps do not look to be down. . #MakeBaseHonorGuardGreatAgain . . 🔆Education is 🔑! .. www.thedrillmaster.org When ordering @ www.paradestore.com use code T186816 @ checkout, thank you! ..

Info from @professorflagg - The braiding of the co Info from @professorflagg - The braiding of the cord and tassels became an easy way to keep it from getting tangled. It became popular in the 1990's. The cord and tassels was used to tie the furled flag over the last 200+ years. That's it. It had no other purpose. The fringe was an addition 100+ years ago to create static to attract dirt and keep the flag clean because the flag was carried in battle. But the fringe back then was quite long. Today's fringe is different. I'm not sold that it's attachment is benign since the Flag Code forbids it. #FlagFringe #FlagSpreaders . #MakeFlagProtocolGreatAgain #KnowYourFlagCode . 🔆Education is 🔑! .. www.thedrillmaster.org When ordering @ www.paradestore.com use code T186816 @ checkout, thank you! ..

When I had these two, two of my cadets from Merrit When I had these two, two of my cadets from Merritt Island High School, stand for this photo, I just told them to make up a grip. I had no idea that I'd actually see both used in the USA. Maybe the one on the right, but the left? That just looks ridiculous. No one would EVER do the one on the left. Have I been surprised by the lack of knowledge lately.

#TombOfTheUnknownInfo What's in the box? “The Bo #TombOfTheUnknownInfo What's in the box? “The Box” is used primarily during wreath-laying ceremonies for the Sentinel to retreat to during wreath laying and rose ceremonies. There also is a phone (called a "Drop") with a direct line downstairs to the Tomb Guard Quarters. All the Sentinel has to do is pick up the receiver. No dialing. It is used in times of emergencies or just to notify the next shift of something. There used to be a three-quarter curtain that the Sentinel could draw across the opening, but seems to be gone for many years now. 👉The Sentinel stands a Ceremonial at Ease most of the time while inside and also executes different commands (Attention, Present, Order). When there is a need, the guard change can happen at the entrance to the Box instead of at the rear of the Tomb where the mat is located. A few years ago a Sentinel was stabbed in the foot by the bayonet, went on with his shift, went to the box, called downstairs and within minutes the Sgt of the guard and another Sentinel were at the Box changing the guard. You can see that video on YouTube. He was treated and released. . . 🔆Education is 🔑! .. www.thedrillmaster.org When ordering @ www.paradestore.com use code T186816 @ checkout, thank you! ..

Ladies and gentlemen, this is a photo of two gold Ladies and gentlemen, this is a photo of two gold colored cords with tassels. None of the military services authorize their use, never display or carry flags with this cord. The Marine Corps, Navy, and Coast Guard all use the red, white, and blue cord and tassels. It's mandatory per MCO 5060.20. For the Army, the R, W, & B cord is optional. AR 840-10. 👉A few days ago I had to block a young female (not acting like a lady) who was screaming at me in text to "read the manuals" because I constantly preach that no one should carry a flag with the gold colored cord and tassels. She posted a photo of me working with BHGs in TX a few years ago and all the flags we worked with had the required gold colored fringe on them. She got the two mixed up, but when I tried to explain I just received more screaming text. 👉"The woods all soaking so the fire won't burn. I'd keep talking but you never learn." I know that I upset people's paradigm, but be teachable. . #cordandtassels . 🔆Education is 🔑! .. www.thedrillmaster.org When ordering @ www.paradestore.com use code T186816 @ checkout, thank you! ..
