Man I've been using this as a joke for 30 years. See somebody with some fucked up teeth? Those teeth are counter column, march. That guy's arm after he attacked Dave Chappelle on stage the other night? His arm was counter column, march.
I think third squad makes 2 short column lefts, and second squad does 2 column rights around third squad, while first squad does 2 column rights around second squad
@Anna Mangialomini Army is the oddball and uses the preparatory command "Rear" as opposed to "To the rear" that the other branches (Navy, Air Force/Space Force, Marines, and Coast Guard) use.
The platoon sergeant's position is to the left of the formation and your squad leaders are supposed to be in front, so rear march is not meant for extended periods of marching.
Controlled chaos !! Looks great
This brings back memories of FLW
It looks cool with a whole platoon

“I’m pickle drill!!!”
How does a platoon of 3 squads execute Counter-Column while marching?
I think third squad makes 2 short column lefts, and second squad does 2 column rights around third squad, while first squad does 2 column rights around second squad
I hate this
Wouldn't "To the rear" be easier?
No such command.
It's " REAR, March!"
