My team 14 years ago. I had just joined the Spangd My team 14 years ago. I had just joined the Spangdahlem Air Base Honor Guard as a retiree becoming the trainer. Wearing a uniform was last on my list. I wanted to ensure these Airmen and others were fully trained for any eventuality. A few months later I would put on the ceremonial uniform of the USAF and start performing as the only Authorized Provider Partnership Program member at Spang and probably Europe, if not overseas - and not just for the USAF. #DrillMasterHistory 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals!

SES is Senior Executive Service. This is the USAF version. Certain civilians serve in positions that are recognized as military General rank equivalent and the SES flag serves as the PC (positional color) for that position. #MakeFlagDisplayGreatAgain 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals!

This is the Madison Scouts @madisonscouts from 197 This is the Madison Scouts @madisonscouts from 1975. After WWII, men came back and started forming and teaching community and school marching bands and drum and bugle corps. They taught brass, woodwind, and percussion instruments, marching, and added a strict military styled color guard one American flag color bearers and two rifle guards. These color guards began to expand immediately adding generic flags and rifles. The spinning of these two weapons (the flagstaff was a spear, but no longer counted as a weapon) was very strict and the color guard members marched everywhere. Sabers (spelled sabre due to the affiliation of dance) were added in the 1980s. Dance was slow but sure with less marching and more movement that continued to increase until the early 2000s and beyond where you cannot recognize the the foundation of the musical color guard, which was the military. When we don't know our history, we don't know what direction to take for our future. #DrillAndCeremoniesHistory #MilitaryColorGuard #ColorGuard 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals!

Whoever is draping the casket shipping container w Whoever is draping the casket shipping container with thr flag, stop it. 👉The flag drapes nothing but the casket itself and a transfer case. I know, #emotionaler and #ceremonialer, but stop. Also, 👉the flag is not put any place where it might be easily soiled like, say, a cardboard box in the luggage compartment of an aircraft. That's two Flag Code violations in one instance. #MakeTheFlagCodeGreatAgain 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals! Download them free at the Resources page here: www.thedrillmaster.org .

Why!? Why, @uscg Training Center Cape May, do you Why!? Why, @uscg Training Center Cape May, do you CONSISTENTLY ignore color guard standards and flag protocol? ❌The POW/MIA flag is not carried at all any other time than when it is carried as a PC for the funeral of a former POW/MIA. That's it NEVER in a color guard formation. 👉See MCO 5060.20 where it talks about not carrying non-government flags in the colors section. ❌The Coast Guard does not carry the national ensign with fringe. Take a seam ripper to that immediately. #DrillMasterSeamRipper ❌The battle-ax finial is only for the Navy and Coasties and NEVER tops the Army, Marine Corps, Air Force, or Space Force flags. Never. 👉See TC 3-21.5, MCO 5060.20, and AFI 34-1201. You need the staffs with the silver-colored Army spearhead finial and silver-colored ferrules and middle screw joint. ❌If these finials are silver, that's also wrong. Navy and Coasties use gold-colored finials only except for the spade. ❌Please cut the little white tags off the USAF and USSF flags. ⭐Flags in correct order. ⭐Flags carried at the same level. #MakeFlagProtocolGreatAgain #MilitaryColorGuard #ColorGuard • • • • • 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals!

Full joint service requires certain placement and Full joint service requires certain placement and so does partial. Partial should never be looked as "Hey it would look really nice if we did 1-2-1-2, or even 1-2-3-1-2-3" meaning the difference in two or three services together, respectively. It doesn't work that way. One service present is senior, the next junior and this is how that is set up. #MakeJointServiceColorsGreatAgain #MilitaryColorGuard #ColorGuard 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals!

I dislike runs with flags, guidons, sure, but flag I dislike runs with flags, guidons, sure, but flags aren't my cup of tea (Earl Grey, please). However, that's just my preference. However again, that preference is based on flagstaffs only being authorized in a color guard and, by extension, battalion and PC bearers. So, there's reason to not carry flags on runs. And then we get to the POW here. It's not carried in any formation because it's not an official government flag. It's a private organization's flag and therefore I'm the class of a novelty flag. I don't write this to be indulging, I wrote it to educate. The POW/MIA flag is only, ONLY, *ONLY* carried as the personal color at the funeral of a former POW/MIA. That's it. Never any other time. Ever. AFI 34-1201 states it "is not paraded". That has nothing to do with what you may think: a street parade or military parade, "paraded" means you pick it up and move a step with it for any reason other than as a PC. As much as you might not like it, there is no argument for carrying it at any other time. "But, POW/MIA Day" is not a reason or excuse. #MakePOWFlagProtocolGreatAgain From @osuairforcerotc • • • • • 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals!

In 1777, Congress described the flag of the United In 1777, Congress described the flag of the United States and declared that it shall be 13 stripes alternating red and white, with 13 stars on a field of blue. With the passage of this law the flag was established. However, it was used was controlled largely by the War Department (later the Department of Defense), since flags were used primarily by the military.... https://thedrillmaster.org/2023/09/26/the-three-flag-codes/

This @yorknjrotc color guard looks good! Whats us This @yorknjrotc color guard looks good! Whats us aggravating is the NJROTC puts out a cadet manual that doesn't follow the service standards for D&C, MCO 5060.20. ❌Aluminum staffs are not authorized, but the cadet manual says OK. ❌The NJROTC org must have fringe, but it's sold without and, if I remember correctly, the manual says no problem. I don't appreciate cadets being told one thing and then joining the Navy (for instance) and finding out those "standards" were wrong. Why do that HQ NJROTC? Let's move on. ⭐Harness sockets at the same level. ⭐Spacing fairly consistent. ⭐Left guard's hand correct. ❌Right guard's left hand too high on the hand guard and right hand needs work: you have an almost right angle to your wrist and it should be almost neutral. Thumb must be tucked behind the small of the stock. ❌Right Guard wearing a watch. It's best not to. ❌National bearer's belt. Why isn't the buckle centered? Was there an issue that created the need to have it off-center? ❌Bearers wearing ribbons. Again, it's best not to because the harness straps can screw them up. ⭐Slings mounted correctly. ⭐Battle-ax finials. ⭐Feet consistent. ⭐Web belts worn correctly. ⭐Nice job, team. #MilitaryColorGuard #ColorGuard • • • • • 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals!

Sometimes however, they will be at the back of a coach resting on the casket deck. They travel with the flag on the right.

However, let's see some things that are correct before getting into whats needs to be corrected. ⭐Flags in proper order. ⭐Spacing is consistent. Now: ❌Fringe on the national. ❌National carried lower. ❌Left hands on the staffs. ❌Bearers elbows flared. ❌No slings on the rifles. ❌Guards have both hands flared at Present.
