About turn on the march (AP818)

[@Rammers06]

Thank you this was very useful science I have a drill assessment tonight

[@sjames1066]

I've looked at AP818 and this is textbook. Thanks for going to the effort of making the video!

[@fenderplayer946]

in this case you set off on the right foot, think of the pace as a unbreakable chain, left right left right etc, on the last part of the movement you move your left leg last so you have to set off on your right foot. the turn is meant to be completed in the same time it would take to march 3 paces forward

[@chloecoffeydecafe1093]

It should be given on the right with a check pace then round

[@wyvernbravo]

Just going to save this for the next time I forget it :)

[@martynarosenberg9579]

the new one has a swivel in it x

[@Wrightjamie80]

Excellent stuff

[@void8659]

thank you im a army cadet and i needed this to pass my test but since i never got taught it as i joined at a odd time im confused

[@Climpus]

This is not how the Army do it.

[@bullranderman]

one thing is for sure, there is going to be bell to pay on that right knee in the future,,; TLV worked perfectly well.

[@johnvarley3909]

wait every movment is on left right?

[@jamiekieranjukes]

Shouldnt the right heel go in to the inside of the left foot

[@Jeemus.]

If you have a look through ap818 you will find this is perfectly correct.

[@joescott816]

Can you update it?

[@aeroabs]

@samuel james, well well well, look whos brishing up on 818 before OIC....i see the about turn got you too lol!

[@woho77777]

Wrong, he done three stomps or whatever you call them your supposed to do two on the right and two on the other direction.

[@jamesgame400]

T, L, V???

[@woho77777]

Might be different for air cadets but it army and police it's not like that.

[@Banchorian]

What exactly is wrong?

[@davidkelly4171]

The first move should be the left foot forming a T with the right foot, not a pivot

[@goproclips]

T,L,V Is not used. There is a pivot on the right foot.

[@Travis-jb9zx]

u just need to do Check, T, L, V away on the right fpoot

[@christophermcmanus4231]

424 on top

[@abhilashrajbhavan]

nice video only one doubt after completing the about turn starting march again the army man using his right leg starting It was right or not? In my opinion every movement starting with left leg.

[@TANKs-bs3ip]

In about turn it is right

[@89sporter]

No it is not.

[@chloecoffeydecafe1093]

Been in army cadets for 3 years rank sergeant c company and this is wrong I teach this

[@fearnraymond1600]

There's a difference between air cadet drill and army cadet drill, we always have the command given on the left foot for this movement.

[@chloecoffeydecafe1093]

We have it on right as then u can't have check pace round

[@fearnraymond1600]

That is what what do I'm afraid, it's set out that way in our drill manual, which is an adaptation of the RAF drill and ceremonial manual

[@miltongreens9469]

I'm an ex Guardsman and all I have to say about this video is .... HAHA HAHA HAHA HAHA 😂😂

[@meganevans1426]

Good grief. I was a Cadet for six years and I spent time in the Canadian Forces. THIS IS INCORRECT. Check, In, Pivot, Pivot, Left, Right, Left! The "In" step is NOT a stomp. Then again... no one has really clarified, and it's hard to tell since the uniforms are so similar. WHERE is this? Is this in the UK, or is it Canada?

[@PureZOOKS]

This is UK ATC following the current Drill and Ceremonial manual AP818. This video is very much correct.

[@meganevans1426]

Very good to know! I think most of these comments (like mine) were so volatile because they weren't sure where this is from.
