The handbook names this job. The official packet is not in the binder yet, so this guide is a draft.
The job
A drill leader is the pace of the line, not the star of it. You know the curriculum below you. You set a straight line, keep personal space, and move people through their turn without dead air or a stampede.
- Formation: feet about shoulder width, hands at the sides, back straight, head up.
- Waiting stays focused. The wait is part of the drill.
- One command. Then silence long enough for them to do it.
- Show the piece, let them try, praise the detail you wanted.
On test day a coach scores you on the floor. This page is the studying.
