Take Notice to the Underlined Sections!
-This is different
from how we have been performing this maneuver.
-Notice that
the Command is not “Right-About Face”
it is instead “About-Face.” It is
implied, by the maneuver that, you turn to the right.
-Second, Notice
that on “About” you will “T” your
feet.
-Third, You
will turn on your heels at the command “Face”,
not on the toe of your right foot.
