*Summary of Changes* (Edit) - Incorrectly referred AFMAN 36-2203 as "AFI 36-2203". This is now corrected. - Updated Army FM 3-21.5 to Army TC 3-21.5 - Multiple spelling and grammatical errors. - Removed previously inaccurate critiques based on outdated and misinterpreted information. - Added prefix to better explain options cadets have when performing in an Air Force colors team. Let me start off by saying this is all much needed constructive criticism, because this team is severely lacking in a lot of areas. I understand this is a year old but my impression is that a lot of the mistakes from this have carried over to this year. Let's break this down one command/sequence at a time, to make this is as educational and helpful for your team as possible. Please read through all of this and learn from it. PREFIX: Air Force cadets are in a unique situation as the AFMAN 36-2203 doesn't detail how to perform every movement in a color guard. It has pictures of the end result of a movement, but nothing further in most cases. It instead relies on the other two service manuals to explain the finer details. This makes it a daunting task for those unfamiliar with reading the manuals to figure out the correct techniques. Why they don't update the regs to make it easier to understand, your guess is as good as mine. Another option cadets have (in a competition setting only) is to march under Army TC 3-21.5, as this is much more detailed and straight forward. The only downside is that when outside of a competition setting, you will have to march the Air Force manual anyway. Figure out what's best for your team. All of my critiques will be in accordance with the "Air Force way". Onto the critique... 1. The correct command is Carry Colors, not Right Shoulder. "Right Shoulder, Arms" is a command in regulation drill, however in a colors team setting it is used by the Air Force Honor Guard exclusively. Cadets are not authorized to perform Honor Guard techniques in a competition. You are correct for going to the outside shoulder, however. Since the AFMAN 36-2203 doesn't explain the proper technique, you must reference MCO 5060.20. During your report in, you should be stating what manual you are drilling in accordance with. It tells your evaluators exactly what you are about to perform so they can better follow along. If you stated to me, "We will be drilling in accordance with AFMAN 36-2203" and performed that, I would have awarded you zero points for an incorrect movement. When at Carry Colors, or any shoulder in general with a rifle, your forearms need to be parallel with the marching surface, and your elbows pinned to your sides so that your rifle is at a 45 degree angle. Both guards are repeatedly inconsistent with this. Flag bearers... I realize size is an issue here, but whenever possible the flags must be equal in height. Only in this instance where size is an issue can the American be higher. Per the new AFMAN 36-2203 update, flag bearers must drop their left hands while at Carry Colors, unless there is considerable amount of wind. 2. Present Arms. Guards perform unauthorized Honor Guard technique. Secondary flag bearer needs to dip his flag on Count 3 of the guard's Present Arms, rather than a slow, 3-count movement. 3. Carry Colors. You gave the proper command this time, which confuses me why it wasn't said in the beginning.... but then the guards go to port arms. They should have gone back to their respective shoulders. You can't have the guards do one thing while the colors do another, unless explicitly directed to, ex. "Guards, Port, Arms." 4. The "march" on. Your team is walking, not marching. The commander, as well as the rest of the team, seem to lack confidence. Being nervous is normal, but this seems completely unprepared. 5. Sling Arms. The command is, "Sling, Arms". Once given, the guards go through the entire motion until the slings are on their shoulders. There are no breaks. Reference: Army TC-3-21.5. 6. You skipped commands before calling Uncase Colors. First you call, "Post". Guards oblique (flank at a 45 degree angle) outwards and take 4 steps, then about face. "Uncase, the Colors" is then called and the guards march forwards while the flag bearers lower the staffs. This is all detailed in the Army TC 3-21.5. 7. I have no idea what the guards are doing after they uncased the flags. It looks like they executed Post, which was supposed to be called after performing Sling Arms. The flag cases should be carried in the left hand, not the armpit. After "Order, Arms" is given, the commander needs to call Post once more before the guards move to stow the cases. Once they are stowed, the guards move back to line formation, "unsling" their rifles, and return to Carry Colors. There is all done non-verbally. "Unsling, Arms" is not a command given. 8. There is no such command as, "Present, Colors" in Air Force drill. You gave Present Arms in the beginning. I don't understand why you changed it. Again guards... unauthorized method. 7. Again, guards go to Port Arms after you called Carry Colors. 8. Order Colors. Guards again perform incorrect method. The team as a whole just isn't together, as with every movement. "Ready, Cut" is an Honor Guard technique. Rather odd they included the inspection in the middle of your performance, but that's just a pet peeve. Nothing you can control. 9. Carry Colors. You see the utter confusion among your guards? The left guard actually went to his shoulder like he was supposed to. Why did he do this then and not the last few times? And why is the right guard at Port? Literally makes no sense. 10. I don't even have to explain what's wrong with the Present Arms. You've already requested to enter the drill pad. You're in the drill pad. Carry on with your sequence as normal. 11. Carry Colors can't mean two different things. You're confusing your guards. 12. Your "marching" is downright terrible, and you are off step. The lack of practice really shows once you started moving. There is no suspended arm swing. Again, another Honor Guard method. 13. You're calling Left/Right wheel, but you are doing a half left/right about. The difference being that in a wheel, either the left or right guard is the pivot point for whatever direction you're going. In a half left/right about, which is what you're doing, you pivot around the center. Pick up your knees when going into half step/mark time. Your speed through everything is rushed and it makes you look sloppy. 14. Guards do NOT go to Present Arms when "Eyes, Right" is called. Guards stay at the shoulder. The left guard, and secondary color bearer look 45 degrees to their right. Commander and right guard look straight. When you called "Ready, Front" the guards went to Port, which blows my mind. Now half your team is at Port and the other at Carry Colors. 15. The command is "Colors Reverse, March", not "Reverse, Colors". 15. I've never seen a color guard have to post the colors during a drill routine. I honestly like this idea, but there is no guidance for it in any regulation drill manuals, so it's entirely up to the judges if it looks good. You also called, "Order, Arms" and the rifles didn't go to the ground, something they've been doing the entire routine. Modifying, adding, or removing equipment doesn't alter the meaning of commands. Again, the command is "Colors Reverse, March", not Reverse Colors. I realize this is a lot to take in, but your team desperately needs to change, because you really did not give it your all out there. I bet money that no one opened up a manual and learned the proper way to do anything. It's obvious that a local Base Honor Guard taught you some things, but you can't march their manual during competition. If you have any questions whatsoever, ask me. Read your manuals first. I cannot stress that enough. Literally this evaluation would be a fraction of what it is had someone had just read them. I hope you improve, and take this seriously. Best wishes
This would be a lot funnier if they had USMC Drill Instructors on these cadets instead of army drill sergeants. They would have probably started crying. lol. Edit: gee thanks for all the likes. Semper Fi!
Brother Shabazz army di's are like moms there so nice if you dont fuck up like like these guys, this cg is a discrase "DI: do you know what leadership is cadet:Uhhhh to know drill.
Dude drill instructors have an intimidation factor coming in, they are a lot easier to read since they only do one thing. When i was in njrotc back in the day we got inspected by dis and generally they'll scream and yell but if you answer everything right, scream and perform movements right they'll leave you alone fast in inspections. The ones who are unpredictable are the Air force TI, they have ripped me a new one just because and since we weren't air force they really took dig at us since we were the only njrotc unit in the whole school district.
It is easy to act with if you remember that she can do all of this instructions. Be respectful also to a female soldier with mouse voice. At frontline duty they will save your ass.
@@morganbangs2969 No, doesnt mean hes a sexist.. many people seem to take female DIs less seriously than male ones. Atleast to me, I take them seriously cause I know they are in charge but they are not as intimidating.
Some constructive criticism: The cadets need to work on learning how to execute the commands, many times they seemed lost. Also, they need to get in sync, especially the rifles, it is all about hearing and using your peripheral vision to know what the other person is doing. Excess moment is a big issue. ya can't look around or fix your alignment, let it be, it looks bad, if a command is not called, you are a statue. And the state's harness was too low, it has to be equally high with the national color, maybe that's because of the height difference. Well, this was last year, so hopefully they have improved by then, good luck cadets.
Ugh... my old JROTC days are kicking in and making me cringe... There is no "right shoulder arms" for color guards that I recall. You simply go to carry colors. Rifle bearers forearms are not parallel to the ground while at carry colors (right shoulder arms) "ready cut" - why do they stick their hand so far out. They should move their free hands smartly to the position utilized at attention. Commander not at attention when approached by the DI.
ILOVEUMPS “Right shoulder arms” should be used for Armed Regulation, commanding all cadets to carry rifles to the right shoulder. The correct command is “Carry color”.
Yeah I’m ca-20161 first years A lot of what I’ve seen is weird, all but American moving on wheels, rifles marching while forwarding, AND THE GLITTER.(btw I’ve gotten first in CG(rifle) for both east union unarmed color guard(Jv) and Turlock comp(Jv)) very sad what I’m seeing but most likely command were different 10 years ago
How many points were taken off for, your heels being majorly off, not being in sync, being slow and not snappy, moving while at attention, your marching being off, hesitating or getting confused about some things, and letting the rifle swing as you move? And just in general looking completely off.
i js promoted from middle school as a middle school color guard commander of 2 years, this performance PAINS me and this was jrotc not middle school lc 😰
the 1st thing I found wrong is the way they hold their flag poles. left hands shouldn't be at the poles, they should be at the cups only in strong winds
The grading on this is incorrect. You observe and annotate based on a point system. Cadre are to be observers not interrupting, unless completely wrong.
No not on this one. This is the harder color guard they are allowed to interfere with you to check with military bearing and the basic knowledge you should know
No that is a big no no. While you can't do much to control it there are actions you can take to prevent this like uncasing the colors correctly. When you take the colors up you dont do it the way they did. Plus the flag looks scrunched up and misused so that's probably not helpful.
Where I'm from their is a Jrotc and Lotc. Jrotc is for High school and Lotc is for Middle school. Not every school has this program but trust me you would know if yours does.
At the beginning it’s be carry colors not right shoulder arms. And when you go to carry colors if you’re a rifle both rifles go to right shoulder arms. And if you go to left shoulder arms, YOU DONT SALUTE THE RIFLE!!!
Since when are there so many E-5 Drill Sergeants? When I was in, to be eligible for Drill you had to be E-5 Promotable and it was pretty rare for an E-5 Promotable to get picked up for Drill. Also, for DA-Select Drill, they were almost always looking for combat veterans. There are just some things that you only learn in battle and, with the country having been at war for 20 years, it's sort of inexplicable to me how there are so many folks that never deployed. But then, I came from Combat Arms, so maybe it's different in support world.
Not many E-5 drill Sargents come down on drill orders many E-5 drills drop a packet and volunteer, when I was in basic I only had one E-5 drill Sargent who came down with drill orders, didn’t even wanna be a drill but apparently he was just that good of a leader.
confederate civil war reenactor This program is free to anyone 9th-12th grade as long as you're high school has the JROTC program, however some schools have different branches of the military...
0:28 (farthest to the right) What in the fucking hell are you doing boy!? STRAIGHTEN YOUR GODDAMN HAND OUT BEFORE I CHOP THAT SHIT OFF!! *pulls out machete* You musta thought i was joking?
Worst color guard ever. My unit color guard is wayyyyyy betterrrrrr we got distinguished unit with merit twice in a row. Commander ain’t loud enough. And uniform is trash.....
Was anyone else screaming at this color guard through your screen
Assassin I was. They suck
😭the rifles left shouldee right shoulder flags alignment phases ughhhhh😭
God their stop in the beginning, and they were off step like ahhhhh
Yes
100%
"WHY IS THERE GLITTER ON YOUR PANTS?"
"IM NOT AWARE OF ANY GLITTER ON MY PANTS DRILL SERGEANT"
xD
That one really caught me off guard
I have no excuses drill Sargent your darn right

Thank you for the fucking bible sir 💀

Man I would love the hear what a Marine Drill Instructor would have to to say about his glitter trousers
"You are sparkly" OMG i'm done hahaha
I can admit that maybe this is a very inexperienced team, and I can also tell that reg is clearly different now, but this video genuinely makes me cry
man these kids prolly gruaduated already and are fully grown adults, cant believe it
Our color guard probably had same amount of experience but at least we were in step.
The sound quality on this clip is amazing.
4:40 lmao lol that left rifle is trash
Fr like shit
Right rifle is too
I cant unsee it no more 😪😬😬
Yes, indeed
I am in Njrotc color guard too but we are not as bad like them. Wow 😮 they we not a line too they are going so first. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Im the only one who noticed one on the riflemen had an officer insignia on his service cap when he was an C/A1C!!
Aww crap! Marine Drill instructors would have a field day yelling at them! 😂😂
Forgotten how much of a mouthful "Yes Drill Sargeant" is compared to "Aye aye sir".
Its hard to act serious with that female drill sergeant.... Thats a cute voice to get yelled at.....reminds me of my gf

Why did they clap at the end lol.ther is nothing to clap at
That was physically painful to watch. They need a lot of work to be considered halfway decent.

Good points and exactly right. But it’s drill sergeant not DI. DI is Marines
BRUH my eyes I can't
Cesar Deltoro the guard for the national flag is what we call shooting squrels his rifles so low at left shoulder
right shoulder*
_THEN WHY IS THERE GLITTER ON YOUR PANTS?!?!_
These cadets need a lot of work and I'm in color guard for my program and school
Yes, I noticed that they are not in sync.
Yeah
I’m ca-20161 first years
A lot of what I’ve seen is weird, all but American moving on wheels, rifles marching while forwarding, AND THE GLITTER.(btw I’ve gotten first in CG(rifle) for both east union unarmed color guard(Jv) and Turlock comp(Jv)) very sad what I’m seeing but most likely command were different 10 years ago
it says they got first place in the desc.
I suddenly appreciate my color guard commander and the way he has us execute rifle commands a lot more... They're so sloppy and out of sync.
Fr
They should’ve used Marine Corps DIs for this. Army drill sergeants are not aggressive enough
Jim Hudson they’re more aggressive than Air Force
7:47 the drills you can definitely hear in the background? Plus their high school students so they wouldn’t go full boar
How do they see anything with their covers in their eyes
INSANE_BANANA you don’t
Who's their instructor?
The female DI sounds like a nagging mother.
Arathor82 and it’s drill sergeants di is marines
Say that to her face
Bros this was terrible the alignment was so off one of the guards which was an officer forgot how to do present arms
How many points were taken off for, your heels being majorly off, not being in sync, being slow and not snappy, moving while at attention, your marching being off, hesitating or getting confused about some things, and letting the rifle swing as you move? And just in general looking completely off.
JayLightningCat u forgot dress
Mixed positions, wrong belts for guards, no chin straps on caps, wrong rifles, awful bearing, incorrect technique, just bad.
I’ve never seen someone do color guard this bad
the drill sgt watching like:
👁👄👁
this...is so bad omg I’m sorry that sounds mean but c’mon! I’ve seen so much better color guards
This is the first color guard I’ve seen not do their rifle movements by the army tc 3-21.5
i js promoted from middle school as a middle school color guard commander of 2 years, this performance PAINS me and this was jrotc not middle school lc 😰
7:38 rip
Ima use this as an example for my cadets of what not to do
When he called her ma’am instead of drill sergeant I knew they were dead. And it was horrible
Man they got a lot of maneuvers wrong, and they were put of step, even as an as1 this hurts to see
When it’s all over, drill sergeants are people too
3:07 😂😂😂😂😂
the 1st thing I found wrong is the way they hold their flag poles. left hands shouldn't be at the poles, they should be at the cups only in strong winds
Pog ass drill sgt
Any USMC DI'S??? If so please give your opinions
They look like freaking power rangers with all those freakin unnecessary arm movements 😂😂
The grading on this is incorrect. You observe and annotate based on a point system. Cadre are to be observers not interrupting, unless completely wrong.
No not on this one. This is the harder color guard they are allowed to interfere with you to check with military bearing and the basic knowledge you should know
@@alphaleader9113 there's no such thing as an easy and a hard color guard... i think you mean that this is a color guard with an inspection.
Bro I heard USMC then drill Sargent and "there's glitter on your pants" I nearly shited my salfe
WHY IS THERE GLITTER ON YOUR PANTS 😂😂😂
Is this a joke
this is a high school------consider what happen in high school-----this female drill instructor sure thinks SHES a big shot
2:30 is the flag supposed to be wrapped around your head like that?
No that is a big no no. While you can't do much to control it there are actions you can take to prevent this like uncasing the colors correctly. When you take the colors up you dont do it the way they did. Plus the flag looks scrunched up and misused so that's probably not helpful.
The wind man, it amazing
Do you have to go to the high school to be part of this
Where I'm from their is a Jrotc and Lotc. Jrotc is for High school and Lotc is for Middle school. Not every school has this program but trust me you would know if yours does.
Don't say Thank you to a Drill Sgt
It should take eight steps to complete a wheel. It took them 5-6
Bro the angles he said carry and he did right shoulder arms like what the fuck is his problem if I was the ds I would drop them
At the beginning it’s be carry colors not right shoulder arms. And when you go to carry colors if you’re a rifle both rifles go to right shoulder arms. And if you go to left shoulder arms, YOU DONT SALUTE THE RIFLE!!!
And if you’re at present colors and you’re a rifle you’d go back to the way you were before you went to present
Y’all need to Watch CR AFJROTC ( Caesar Rodent High school ) for a good team
Hoorah Scripps Ranch Color Guard
Honestly the right rifle is probably the newest guy but if he isn't, the team is sloppy.
He ain’t
He’s an officer
The only officer on the team 😭
Since when are there so many E-5 Drill Sergeants? When I was in, to be eligible for Drill you had to be E-5 Promotable and it was pretty rare for an E-5 Promotable to get picked up for Drill. Also, for DA-Select Drill, they were almost always looking for combat veterans. There are just some things that you only learn in battle and, with the country having been at war for 20 years, it's sort of inexplicable to me how there are so many folks that never deployed. But then, I came from Combat Arms, so maybe it's different in support world.
Not many E-5 drill Sargents come down on drill orders many E-5 drills drop a packet and volunteer, when I was in basic I only had one E-5 drill Sargent who came down with drill orders, didn’t even wanna be a drill but apparently he was just that good of a leader.
That female sounds like a squeaker toy, it would be hard not to laugh at her.
I feel like my parents would be more intimidating
I always wonder what would happen if someone drops the color or the us flag during inspection?
THEY BETTER BEAT IT TO THE GROUND AND CATCH IT
@@mikevaluska7313 Saw a team drop the American Flag at Leavenworth lol

How old do you have to be to do this
confederate civil war reenactor This program is free to anyone 9th-12th grade as long as you're high school has the JROTC program, however some schools have different branches of the military...
This is a high school JROTC Color Guard. That means the high school you attend must have a JROTC Program along with a color guard that you can be in.
They won first how......?

The commander is quite handsome
Nah man he's ugly
Read your manuals this was atrocious
That was the worst color guard I have ever seen
Worst color guard ever. My unit color guard is wayyyyyy betterrrrrr we got distinguished unit with merit twice in a row. Commander ain’t loud enough. And uniform is trash.....
Jacob Martinez did you see the commander’s cover. It’s tilted 🧐
That command voice or the execution of each command are horrible fix it
The thank you drill sergeant makes me cringe so hard

It's just horrible. Air Force 🙄
Not great not terrible, could have been better though.
Playing army man

Now this fucked up
Damn female Drill Sergeants be trying too hard 😂
Bro, the commander is a C/MSgt yet he's wearing an officer insignia on his service cap XD. I dont know if anyone else caught that too
I looked again and turns out there's only 1 officer on their team. So everyone else is enlisted with an officer insignia...cringe
Maybe they ran out of covers
