The New Drill Manual
The new Manual of Drill Regu
lations recently adopted by the War
Department is causing a little trouble
for both officers and men, owing to
the many changes made. The Man
ual of Arms is practically the same
as in the old regulations, changing
only the movement from Port to Rt.
Shoulder from a two count to a three
count movement.
The most striking change is in the
formation of the Company. Under
the new regulations the rear rank
“fall in” at a distance of 40 inches
and that interval is maintained al
ways when marching in company
front. The old “fours” are done
away with, both as a unit of the
company and in the wording of
commands, and “squads” are sub
stituted. There is a marked tend
ency to treat the squad, as a unit,
just as they treat the company, as a
unit; and thus, “squads right” and
“squads right turn,” the move
ments which have replaced “fours
right” and “right turn” are exe
cuted in exactly the same manner as
“Company right,” and “Company
right turn”. It is impossible to say
now how these changes will be ac
cepted but some, at least, are very
practical and will make drill much
simpler.
