@indianacivilairpatrol, please don't just grab ran @indianacivilairpatrol, please don't just grab random flags and throw a team together just because it's a holiday. #EverythingIsWrongStartOver ❌All staffs must be light ash wood guidon staffs with flat, silver Army spearhead finial and nothing else. ❌Cords and tassels are not authorized. ❌Flags are too large for the staffs. See AFI 34-1201 for a complete explanation. ❌All flags must be as close to the same dimensions as possible and none larger than the US. ❌Military color guards can NEVER carry the POW/MIA flag. NEVER. It's a private organization's flag and is authorized to only be carried as a PC at the funeral of a former POW/MIA. ❌Color guards march and stand at Close Interval only. ❌Grips on the staffs are wrong and not uniform. ❌Guards are at Right Shoulder while bearers at Order. ❌Incorrect grips on rifles. 👉We have responsibilities as adults to ensure cadets are trained properly. Color guard members have a responsibility to ensure they are as knowledgeable as possible for their position. Leadership failure. 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals!

There's no need to gripe about the electronic bugl There's no need to gripe about the electronic bugle, I know that brass players dislike it, but it's a necessity. The training or lack thereof of this Sailor is the problem. Nothing he does is appropriate technique. Nothing. Each service has a complete training for #BugleStandingManual and anyone can take it. Bell-up is not an authorized position. I know the insert can have the material wear away so you replace it. Facing away from the NOK is unacceptable. You either stand far enough away so that the insert cannot be seen or you point the bell parallel to the NOK. That's not a facing movement. 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals!

Well, #TheDrillMasterIsImpressed - Public please. Well, #TheDrillMasterIsImpressed - Public please. This is the LT Michael Murphy Division of Sea Cadets from West Sayville, NY. The team looks so good! Here's the necessary adjustments required: 👉staffs must be vertical. 👉Left hands on staffs must be under and touching the right. ❌Right rifle guard's right forearm must be horizontal. ❌Grips on the rifles must have all fingers together. So impressed! Well done, cadets and staff. Great job. 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals! Download them free at the Resources page here: www.thedrillmaster.org .

#MakeRegulationDrillGreatAgain - Guidon lower ferr #MakeRegulationDrillGreatAgain - Guidon lower ferrule placement is the same for the flagstaff for regulation drill. Why? There is no reasoning except for an exact and understandable placement, especially for those who aren't well versed in D&C. Not a desirable position - staff is NOT vertical in this position, there is a slight incline to the rear, and the ferrule can slide. #MakeCeremonialDrillGreatAgain - Ceremonial placement requires the lower ferrule to be centered on and 1.5"-2" away from foot. An alternate is at the third eyelet (from the front - pictured) so that the staff is in front of a LEO holster. Why? Much better vertical alignment and control (won't slide forward). Spade is flat and fringe gather/staff sleeve seam faces to the rear (CAN face forward but not necessary). Why? The flag flies properly as the team moves forward and the staff is set for posting. ⚠️There is no difference being inside or out as far as fringe direction (this is a ridiculous notion). For a battle-ax or similar directional finial faces forward and fringe does as well. This means the staff must be rotated when posted.

Flagstaffs should not be carried like a rifle at P Flagstaffs should not be carried like a rifle at Port across the body, that's a guidon position used when marching at Double Time.

The @usnavalacademy color guard showing a perfect The @usnavalacademy color guard showing a perfect example of needless #HarnessSocketCrotchSyndrome 👉It's the Naval Academy, why doesn't the color guard use the battle-ax finial? Because they carry the Marine Corps departmental and that flag, the senior of the two services, is never topped with anything other than the flat, silver Army spearhead/spade. That means all other staffs must be topped with the same finial. As long as the Army, Marine Corps, Air Force, and/or Space Force flag is present, all finials must be the spade. When only the Navy and Coast Guard flags are present, the battle-ax is required. 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals! Download them free at the Resources page here: www.thedrillmaster.org .

Celebrate the day with remembering and giving thanks to our Lord that he created brave men and women to serve and sometimes pay the ultimate sacrifice.
@ohionationalguard, is this the best you can do? I @ohionationalguard, is this the best you can do? In training for colors we teach that #PortForColors is used for a low clearance area, a low ceiling. That ceiling doesn't mean clouds (that's for flying, not colors). You are outside, you go to Right Shoulder. Didn't have time to train for that? Call in a JROTC or first responder colors team and bow out. 👉The OH flag here is is brought to #AnglePort because that's the dip required from Port. This is proper but the team never should have presented at Port. 👉The team should only depart at Port after presenting. Unacceptable. ❌At Port outside. ❌US is #FishPoling. ❌Sling threaded through #StackingSwivel. . 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals!

Seven years ago today I finished the certification Seven years ago today I finished the certification of Turlock Fire, Modesto Fire, Modesto PD, and a couple other agencies. These LEOs and firefighters became Certified US Ceremonial Guardsmen and came away from the week of training equipped to handle any colors presentation requirement, casket transfer techniques, casket watch, firing party, flag fold and presentation techniques, protocols, and much more. Nobody teaches what I do, trainees do not learn the necessities of the ceremonial elements elsewhere, and I find that unfortunate. I've retrained many who have been through every other "clinic" and they know little to nothing about the requirements for each position. I so wanted to work together with others when I began teaching (first responders and cadet programs) and quickly found that wasn't possible for one reason or another. #CertifiedCeremonialGuardsman . 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals!

I've talked about #ColorBearerBracingTechniques th I've talked about #ColorBearerBracingTechniques that we use in the ceremonial drill world. It's a series of techniques that increase. All commands are subdued and only for the team to hear. 1. Bearers Ready, Two. Left hand on staff at the socket. 2. Bearers Ready, Slide. Left hand slides up staff to under and touching right. 3. Bearers Ready, Step. Left foot moves 6" to 8" to the left. 4. Bearers Order, Colors (pictured). Staff brought to Order and both hands maintain a grip. If the silk can be gathered, do it. These are stages/steps. You start with 1 and progress or you go directly to 4. It all depends on your situation. At whatever stage, you still go to Present, even with feet separated, except for 4, remain at Order and bracing position . The guards do not follow the commands. . 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals! Download them free at the Resources page here: www.thedrillmaster.org .

Some attention to detail paid here and I do apprec Some attention to detail paid here and I do appreciate it. ⭐Belts for everyone. ⭐Um.. ❌8' staffs with 4'4"x5'6" flags mounted on them. ❌Different sizes flags in the same formation. 👉The Army can mount the larger flag only on a 9'6" staff. They can also mount the smaller flag on either length of staff. See AR 840-10. ❌Marching shoulder-to-shoulder. ❌Grips on rifles need work. ❌Left hands on staff must rest at the socket. ❌US flag socket lower than Army. . 🔆Education is 🔑! . 🔹Read your manuals!

This is bad training. I don't know the team or eve This is bad training. I don't know the team or even what the setting is for them. It seems odd to carry cased colors and have the guards execute Sling Arms outside of a competition unless it's for a demonstration. Photo sent in. Anyway, ❌bearer left hands are wrong. The technique of a flared left hand pressed against the harness socket isn't a technique that exists except in someone's mind. It looks ridiculous butt what is worse is that the hand placement doesn't do anything. The reasoning the Army decided to place the left hand on the staff at the socket in the 1970s doesn't make sense but was probably to just be different (the services have "fought" like this for over 100 years). However, the left hand's grip is actually supposed accomplish something by the fingers curving around the socket and the thumb curling BEHIND the staff. Recently, AFJROTC decided AFJROTC colors guards need to follow all of the Army standards without taking into account any AF techniques or the history of the service. It's easier to ignore, apparently. ❌This means the guard's cradle technique is wrong. They are using the technique from the MCO, which is usually required because AF/SF guards are supposed to be at the outside shoulder and perform the processes outlined for the guards in the MCO because of rifle placement. ❌Metal staffs aren't authorized for any color guard at all. Ever. . ❌John Wayne ceremonial belts for the bearers. ❌Chinstraps are worn down in this uniform on colors. ❌The silver chinstrap is to be grounded to the bill. ❌Belt keepers are worn one inch from the buckle.
