cadence..way too fast on your wheels, your left guard was not pressed tothe rest of the colors..present colors is a 4 count movement..guards were off..alignment is bad..arent you supposed to be ''sanwiched' together? other than that, it was decent.
ok, one. you DO NOT sling arms in colour guard. Second, when you do colour guard, the flag should already be unrolled. Third, your stepping is high. youmay be fine now, but wait til one of you puts it down too fast and breaks step. its not fun, and your commander should have your ass for it.
@gamer209 first...they should have the flags covered because its part of the sequence.if you were in JROTC you would no that and when they UNCASE the colors they sling arms. no wat you doin before you run your mouth. and theyre stepping is fine. doubt you could do better.
WHY DO I ALWAYS SEE THIS! Military manuals never say to speed up the cadence when performing wheels! If you keep the cadence the same for the whole performance then you will get a better score.
you are retarted. it is similar to the air force but quite it. its more like a bunch of wannabes. like the sea cadets through the navy. and by the way i am a service member, united stated navy corpsman. hospital corpsman third class 8404 fleet marine force with ohsu det d camp pendleton. in plain English combat medic for the marines,
do you even know what civil air patrol is? CAP is like i said just like the air force but for kids who are too young to join. we do rescue missions. we can get a pilots licience. we can stay at encampment for 2 weeks at a us army or air force base. the chain of command is just like the air force. we take the same classes and physical education tests. really the only diffence is that we only meet once a week.
i am a color guard commnder at greenwood high school sc i saw alot of mess up some not so good some bad> first when presenting top arm should be parrallel with ground flags shouldbe straight both flags looked down feel for the hole not look down and pivot person for the wheels/turns stay in same spot
I suggest practcing your alignment a little better, march time march or left wheel a little slower, and try to get your riflemens to do left and right shoulder, it looks bad when there both left or right shoulders
Well overall it was pretty sharp umm try to when ur doin the right and left turns make the person the tea mis guiding wait a little longer to turn and turn with u instead of ahead of you... also try keeping ur alignment a little better it can use some workk but besides that really really good
the girl swinging her arms is bothering me. i hate it when im the american flag and people swing their arms, its distracting. plus in color gaurd you only march waste down
actually every branch is based of the armys drill wanna know y because they were created first and every military branch has change of some stuff and made it its own
in there defence its in regulation to hold the colors in an upright position in either a flag holder (cup) or handheld. it does not state the rules on wether u should hold the cup or keep ur arm at ur side.... C/Cpt. Ritter OB NJ-20002 AFJROTC Director of D&C/ Honor Guard Commander
they should still be on step during the wheel. I dont know how you got first place if you ignore the most basic principle of any drill which is staying on step
yeah i got a little advice for ya. well I'm in the army reserves now and I was in AFJROTC so my advice to you is when you uncase the colors don't bring the flags out of the holsters, and slow down on the mark time and lower it a little the right guard looks like shes about to fall.
its present colors, not arms... at parade rest u grab the cup.... u call "ready cut" after carry, present, & order ... u dont swing ur arms ethier.... when u call "eyes" the american flag is 2 never turn his/her head thts a no no ....
if you sweet you shouldn't have to look at the cup when you put the flag in the cup(or maybe it was just me!?!?) hey but the trick to doing colorguard with another team on the other-side of the field is for the commander to be very loud so that you make the other team follow your commands instead of there own commander(s) (sgt. simmons- omega psi phi...shout out 2 all the ques!!!)
I command an Army color guard and we're nationally ranked as #4 so I can give you my perspective. Color guard judges love the snappy stuff. Guards need alot more snap and pop in their sling arms and you and the other flag need some more sharpness in your case and uncase. Your wheels are at a good count but you have the tendency to stomp your feet which causes for loss of sharpness. The commands need to be called with more inflection as well. Dress also needs work. Hope I could help & good luck
idk about army regs. but AFJROTC regulation says right(left) weels should be 8 count. uh befor you guys uncased colors the flags wernt lined up, idont know what one was 2 far foward or back. with your parade rest your state flag need 2 come foward. so you just have to tell them to extend there arm.. becides that uh.. you just need 2 work on your comand voice
Ya Same here. i'm from Coventry High School, which is an Air Force JROTC School. we won the Eastern Division Air Force Nationals in 2008. during our season meets we go by the army field manual 3-21.5, but when we go to Air Force Nationals we have to change our routines to Air Force Manual 36-2203 for uniforms, and then when we go to Daytona for the All Service Nationals we go back to the Army Manual.
well heres little detail., when you do your wheels, its only supposed to Be 4 Steps, it says so in the regulation manual. your Sling arms is wrong you stick out your arm when you grab the rifle where as your Rite hand should go under the rifle and u should rest the rifle on your hand just holding the slide. like someone said before your marchtime march nd forward march are at different speeds, other than that, HOOAh,, Clipper battalionAlpha Company. HOOAH
Here's what I noticed. When you were at mark-time march after the wheels, you guys were going way too fast. When you are marching with flags, you say "colors" instead of "arms". Your commands were barely audible. I think that was the video, though, but I'm not sure. I think griff323 caught the rest. Other than that...not bad.
I know that.(I command the LET1 team and we got 5th place out of 14 at our very first competition so don't act like I don't know what I'm doing) Thats not what I was saying. Where I go to school, one uses the commands of "order colors," "present colors", "carry colors" with flags. We use "arms" with a rifle squad or if there are no flags.
I'm a Cadet soon to be Seargeant of Company Alpha Buffalo Battalion at US Army JROTC Manteca High School and I just have something to say that our all good but have some slight mistakes.
I'm Air Force and at our Drill Comp at the Eagle Classic at the Dover Air Force Base at Dover,(the Comp we Hosted) Our Color Guard took 2nd place and we took 4th place overall.
Ok...well, from what I can tell, your state color bearer's flag is leaning out, while the national is straight. The video is not that good either...your guards look a tad off on their posts, and i'm not too sure, but you guys might be off line. Also, the commands are barely understandable. I know you said Colors Reverse, March, just need to work on that... on the halt, parade rest, one of your guards swooped the rifle down while the other put it down straight. right wheel is off too.
I'm in a west coast njrotc colorguard. Dayum you guys are in sync. I agree with most people that your mark time was a bit faster than it should. We can't do casing and uncasing clors cause your flags are twice as big as yours.
I'm aware that regulations vary in every color guard and some of us do things differently lol...I'm captain of my colorguard...and we do our sequences shoulder-to-shoulder. I have to admit that I'm very impressed by your mark time marching...your knees are very high and thats something the majority of colorguards need to work on. I am also impressed that your rifles were perfectly in sync. Well Done!
i loved you guys and im not going to say the same thing that every1 else said because u have already heard it so just DO IT ALREADY LOL but it all is true but keep up the good work hope to see u in daytona if we even go =)
looks really good, your marktimming, and half stepping was too fast, but your rifles are fantasitcally nsync with eachother, that must have taken a lot of time. I'v been colorguard commander of my colorguard for 3 years now, so I can really apreceate this colorguard.
Don't listen to them! You were really good. Just slow those feet a bit as well as those nerves! Being nervous can affect your overall speed and performance which I'm sure you knew!
first of all the Sgm is not a sir, the report in and out was to fast(commander spoke to fast) and the cadence was a bit slow, but during the mark time it really speed up, (thats not right) all threw the sequence should be all the same cadence, some of the timing esp on the guards was a little off, some of the time,if your going to Daytona good luck, oh and we got forth in color guard, not saying that to brag, just my team and I really know what were talking about when it comes to drill.
the only thing i can see is that (im airforce so we use the same manual of arms as yall) your halfstep should be the same pace as your quicktime, which should also be a lil slower because colorguard should be methodical and its a lil easier to stay instep that way, btw since we wont be going against yall unless yall go to montgomery (joint service nationals) next year GOOD LUCK!!!! nething else just email me at cspatriot234@yahoo.com
cadence..way too fast on your wheels, your left guard was not pressed tothe rest of the colors..present colors is a 4 count movement..guards were off..alignment is bad..arent you supposed to be ''sanwiched' together? other than that, it was decent.

not to be too mean or anything but the cg commander should sound off way louder
