    Study Notes

    Forward March and Halt

    • Command for "Forward, MARCH" begins with the left foot, taking a 24-inch step with a heel-first approach.
    • Arms should swing naturally: 6 inches forward and 3 inches back while maintaining proper dress and distance.
    • To halt, command "Flight, HALT" is given, and the cadet takes one additional step before ceasing movement.

    Command Structure

    • Commands consist of two parts: preparatory and execution.
    • Supplementary commands come into play when units need to execute different movements or timings.

    Informational Commands

    • Informational commands lack a preparatory command or execution command.

    Position and Movement

    • Leaders must always be at the position of attention.
    • Subordinate commanders give supplementary commands over the right shoulder.

    Specific Commands and Movements

    • To execute movements to the right, commands align with the right foot's strike.
    • "Eyes Right" turns heads and eyes to the right, while "Ready Front" brings them back forward as the left (or right) foot strikes.

    Specific Positions

    • Position of attention: heels together at a 45-degree angle, hands along seams, straight posture.
    • "Parade, REST" requires feet 12 inches apart, with hands behind the back in an "X" formation.

    Saluting Procedures

    • To execute a hand salute, the command is "Present, Arms” for the first count and "Order, Arms" for the second count.
    • Salutes are exchanged only outdoors unless formally reporting.

    Marching Cadences

    • Double time rates at 180 steps per minute, with a step length of 30 inches.
    • Quick time marches at 100-120 steps per minute with a step length of 12 or 24 inches.

    Changes of Formation

    • Elements may change formations or intervals, such as "close march" or "extend march."

    Cadence and Step Mechanics

    • Steps commence with the left foot following a halt, except in certain specific movements like right step and close march.
    • "Mark Time, MARCH" involves stepping in place with the feet raised 4 inches while maintaining cadence.

    Drill Terminology

    • Drill terms detail the vocabulary associated with formations and movements in a drill setting.
    • Cadence reflects the uniform step and rhythm in marching, significant for synchronized movements.

    Understanding Squadron Structures

    • A flight comprises at least two but not more than four elements.
    • Distances between individuals in formation maintain a standard of 40 inches from chest to back.

    Element and Movement Definitions

    • Elements serve as basic formations, and intervals measure the space between individuals side by side.
    • The definition of "formation" includes various arrangement types, such as lines or columns.

    Miscellaneous Commands

    • "Fall Out" allows relaxation but requires individuals to remain close by.
    • "Change Step" is executed as the right foot strikes the ground.

    Final Lines and Rests

    • The final line marks the front rank formation for parades, while rest positions permit moderate speech without movement.

    Transitioning Between Marches

    • Transition from double time to quick time involves two steps: one to adjust and one to halt.
    • "Half Step March" allows for shorter strides while maintaining coordinated arm swings.

    Summary of Key Movements

    • Movements such as "Right (Left) Step" and "To The Rear, March" require specific foot placements and pivoting techniques for proper execution.### Marching Techniques

    • The leg remains straight with the foot kept 12 inches away from the other foot in the specified direction.

    • The opposite foot is moved together with the first foot while the upper body remains stationary.

    • The body stays at attention throughout the movement.

    • Upon the command "HALT," an additional step is taken before bringing both feet together.

    Change Step March

    • Command "MARCH" is executed on the right foot.
    • The cadet takes a 24-inch step forward then places the ball of the right foot alongside the heel of the left foot.
    • Arm swing is paused during this movement.
    • Weight is shifted to the right foot, followed by stepping off with the left foot in another 24-inch step while resuming coordinated arm swing.

    To the Rear March

    • Command "MARCH" is given on the right foot.
    • The cadet steps 12 inches forward with the left foot, aligning it in front of the right foot, distributing weight on the balls of both feet.
    • A 180-degree pivot is executed on the balls of both feet to the right.
    • Another 12-inch step is taken with the right foot while suspending arm swing during the maneuver.
