Their use is only mentioned in drill meet SOPs and nowhere else. Plus, only all-female teams can carry them. Every other time an Army JROTC team presents the colors, the staffs must be the light ash wood guidon staffs with the flat, silver Army Spearhead. ❌The sockets must be better adjusted than this. This looks bad #HarnessSocketCrotchSyndrome - much too low. #AmericanFlagAlwaysHigher Is a myth. ❌Both stsffs must be angled SLIGHTLY forward at the same angle. Always match the angle to the right. ❌Army teams must carry the Army departmental or the AJROTC organizational. You can ADD the state flag, but cannot carry just the state. • • • • • . 🔆Education is 🔑! .. www.thedrillmaster.org Use this link to order: https://glendale.com/?ref=NinqEO3mFYiuV ..

#DrillAndCeremoniesHistory - In late fall of 1950 #DrillAndCeremoniesHistory - In late fall of 1950 Chinese forces surprised and overran U.S. and U.N. troops, including the U.S. Eighth Army and the 2nd Infantry Division. By the last week of November, U.S. and U.N. troops were forced to withdraw south. The 2nd Engineer Battalion was the organic combat engineer battalion assigned to the 2nd Infantry Division. The battalion was ordered to hold the town of Kunu-Ri protecting the rear and right flank of the Eighth Army as it retreated. Companies from the battalion were attached to two infantry regiments, the 9th and 38th, to fill gaps in the defending lines. The lines eventually gave way to brutal assaults by three Chinese divisions. By 26 November, after three days of heavy fighting, the three enemy divisions had grown to five, with more on the way. On 29 November, the battalion received orders to relocate south to Sunchon, but the Chinese had blocked the only escape route south at a mountain pass. The 2nd Engineer Battalion moved forward to clear a path through the obstacle and open the road. Once the road was cleared, the battalion was told to hold the line with the 23rd Infantry Regiment and A Battery of the 503rd Field Artillery. Early on 30 November, the massive 2nd Infantry Division convoy began to slowly make its way across the mountain pass through a six-mile gauntlet of Chinese sniper and mortar fire. Within hours the situation turned from bad to worse as swarms of Chinese troops engulfed the retreating column. The 2nd Engineer Battalion was the only unit left to oppose the massive Chinese assault. The engineers successfully held off the enemy long enough for the remainder of the 2nd Infantry Division to evacuate through the pass. 👇More in comments.
Everything affects your marching/walking. Everythi Everything affects your marching/walking. Everything. My gate changed drastically just over a month ago. Your gate is how you walk and march. The images are my lumbar (lowest part) spine taken from the right side. In the first one, you can see a natural curve all of the vertebrae line up almost in a curved line, which I'm working on. Now, go to the next slide. That's from two months ago when I was in Idaho. I visited one of the best chiropractors in the country, Dr. Steven Baker (whom I cannot tag because he posts the truth). During my three visits, I had x-rays taken, marked up, and fully explained. The yellow line I added shows my bottom two vertebrae stair-stepped forward! I don't know what caused it or how long they were like that. They both popped, literally, it was a really weird feeling, back into position (well, very close, anyway) over a month ago and all of the sudden my heels were slamming into the marching surface like I was a horse! I'm still retraining my technique because I slip back into slamming heels every few days. Very odd. ❤️Please take care of yourself through good nutrition, exercise, prayer, and then take care of the others around you. ❤️ #DrillMasterHistory . 🔆Education is 🔑! .. www.thedrillmaster.org Use this link to order: https://glendale.com/?ref=NinqEO3mFYiuV ..

The Zumwalt changed hands! Congratulations to the The Zumwalt changed hands! Congratulations to the new Captain. Fair winds and following seas to the previous Captain. And for the protocol officer who set up the flag display, what on earth were you thinking? You don't seem to understand flag protocol at all. MCO 5060.20 tells you exactly ❌what staffs are authorized, ❌and that the departmental must have gold colored fringe. ❌The Admiral's PC must also have fringe, ❌but must have a flat, silver Army Spearhead finial. ❌The national and departmental must have matching finials and NTP 13B tells you what they are based on, in this case, the presiding officer's rank. ❌The national is posted only on the right unless you pre-post it higher. 👉It's absolutely incredible that the usnavy is consistently inconsistent when it comes to protocol. . #MakeFlagDisplayGreatAgain #MakeFlagProtocolGreatAgain . 🔆Education is 🔑! .. www.thedrillmaster.org Use this link to order: https://glendale.com/?ref=NinqEO3mFYiuV ..

#NotTheUSAFFlag - as much as it may cause discomfo #NotTheUSAFFlag - as much as it may cause discomfort for some readers, I updated this tag on Instagram to include a couple more posts of mine. I do not mind being respectfully challenged, sometimes it's the only way we get to learn. This has only solidified my stance. About an hour's worth of research and I noticed a couple more posts of color guards that I didn't recognize as carrying the Chinese knockoff novelty flag. Slides 1️⃣2️⃣&3️⃣Show cadets and two BHG teams carrying an unauthorized flag. I know that it looks official, I understand that. However, slide 4️⃣is a photo I just took of AFI 34-1201, page 28. It shows the only authorized USAF departmental flag. If someone high up is using the wrong flag in official communication, he/she is either doing so unwittingly or is compromised and sending covert signals. But, the latter would NEVER happen, no not at all. 👉According to the USAF Public Affairs that knock off design is approved for use by CIVILIANS so as to distinguish official vs. unofficial use. We can expect to see the use of the branch flags becoming more restricted in the near future.

Just a short time ago I posted a video of Daytona Just a short time ago I posted a video of Daytona PD honor guard presenting the colors at a car race and then moving off. As the team left the track, they rippled to Port. That was a mistake since the American flag comes down first and any other flag is now higher, albeit briefly. This is the technique used to go from Right Shoulder to #PortForColors - all at the same time. Here, the team executed a #ColorsTurnOff and immediately began the transition to Port. You can see the wind decided to give the bearers a challenge. . 🔆Education is 🔑! .. www.thedrillmaster.org Use this link to order: https://glendale.com/?ref=NinqEO3mFYiuV ..

Veterans Day parade recorded by yoursavvyagent - t Veterans Day parade recorded by yoursavvyagent - the band is superb! I remember my drum major days. Cool stuff. Color guard is missing a couple of members... Do first responder color guards have their own standards? Not necessarily. I understand volunteer departments fielding two color bearers. I know the struggle behind that kind of situation. Here, I don't support four flags without guards. Two color bearers could have changed equipment and the team would have been complete. But, where am I getting this idea of incomplete or complete? First responders are in uniform and have a military-type of hierarchy. Where does the color guard go for information on how to perform its functions? TC 3-21.5, MCO 5060.20, or my book, The Honor Guard Manual (based on military ceremonial drill). It all comes from the military and that means teams should conform to those standards. • • • • • . 🔆Education is 🔑! .. www.thedrillmaster.org Use this link to order: https://glendale.com/?ref=NinqEO3mFYiuV ..

It's said that it takes 10,000 hours to be an expe It's said that it takes 10,000 hours to be an expert. That's an entire year spent doing nothing else but studying and marching (in our case). 👉The assumption is that once you graduate Basic Training or Boot Camp you know everything there is to know about drill and ceremonies. After all, you marched! For a few hours over a couple of months... 👉Then we come to the Drill Instructor, Drill Sergeant, Training Instructor, and the installation honor guard member. They MUST know even more than everything about drill! 👉In reality, no. Being a subject matter expert takes years of study and experience in only that subject in a broad sense (more than just what takes place in Basic or on a color guard).

This s was a great experience for kaitlyn_ariel14 This s was a great experience for kaitlyn_ariel14 and I'm very happy for her! However, the guards are not carrying their rifles correctly with no 45-degree angle at the elbow, and what makes this unbelievably bad is that the flag being carried by this Base Honor Guard that is supposed to be the USAF flag is a Chinese communist knockoff fake novelty flag! Military members cannot carry novelty flags. A novelty flag is one that represents a sports team or a business or even those Thin Line flags. The flag here is an unofficial, unauthorized flag with an official-looking AF crest.

The use of the Star-Spangled Banner as background The use of the Star-Spangled Banner as background music is abhorrent! To use it as music for a video of a color guard that knows just a little about what they are doing doesn't make it any better. 👉The biggest issues with veteran teams is which standard do they follow and are they going to read the manual or just rely on memory from what they learned 40 years ago and go with that. 👉Flag angles are not supposed to be that extreme if following Army standards and should not have any angle whatsoever if following Marine Corps standards. hellocarboncounty • • • • • #Veteransday #priceutah . 🔆Education is 🔑! .. www.thedrillmaster.org Use this link to order: https://glendale.com/?ref=NinqEO3mFYiuV ..

The Span of Control. In the western part of the US The Span of Control. In the western part of the USA, the AFJROTC drill team regulation drill sequence requires the commander to change sides twice or have the commander step out of bounds and march there on two sides of the boundary for quite some time. I marched that same sequence when I was in high school and it's still the same. So, I created this term and diagram (years ago) to help everyone in this predicament understand how the commander can change sides and still maintain control of the flight. It's not an official term and it's not justification for the commander to wander to wherever. I created it just for this one situation for a better understanding to #MakeRegulationDrillGreatAgain - hopefully. . 🔆Education is 🔑! .. www.thedrillmaster.org Use this link to order: https://glendale.com/?ref=NinqEO3mFYiuV ..

The Naval Academy's drill team is called the usna The Naval Academy's drill team is called the usna_jollyrogers - look at the feet leading up to the cordon (two lines facing each other). Some feet are early and another member turns on the wrong foot. It just takes planning, training, and a bunch of practice to iron out issues and cement proper execution into the brain and muscles. The team does quite well here. I would suggest a tempo change (faster in the cordon, the side steps inward could have been nice and quick too) to keep the audience engaged. The commander should come from the side at a normal pace tempo. Using the team's tempo makes it look like you are taking part in that moment of the routine, but you are not. This is a bit of a distraction. Minimize the distraction by simply marching to center, facing normally, and waiting for your cue. • • • • • . 🔆Education is 🔑! .. www.thedrillmaster.org Use this link to order: https://glendale.com/?ref=NinqEO3mFYiuV ..
