It is not for a combat situation. They will use this movement in parades, shows, drill sequences, and some other things. Just because it is Military related does not mean it is the same thing as being Combat related.
This was used whoever in the 17th century widely as a pike and shot tactic. Invented by the Dutch stadholder Maurits, and perfected by swedish king Gustavo Adolphus!

My flight nailed this movement withing half an hour on our first day of encampment. Yeah, we got flight of the day. Lol
Rebecca Cain what wing?
Exact same here except it was third day and in 5 minutes
My flight at Civil Air Patrol encampment got this on the first try
John Gray My flight couldn't get a right face on there first try... sorry to reply so late...
Mr.Weedy my flight got this down easy as all you had to do was follow the element leaders (which I was one) but we couldn't do a to the rear
I didn't do this at encampment. it's wierd that others have. i haven't heard of this until i had to teach a class on it.
We are doing this in a field show....
Bet. Most veiwers are CAP cadets.
and we needed an american to tell us this?
What is the point of this, and how would this be even remotely useful in a combat situation?
Drill is for ceremonies. It would be shown at football games, funerals, etc. It is not for combat. It teaches discipline.
turning the flight 180 degrees without inverting the flight
