hen move straight to the front. To Turn on Moving Pivot Begin in line: 1 _Right (or left) Turn_, 2 _March_. (This applies to the single squad; if the whole troop is drilling and is in column of squads, or twos, the command would be: 1 _Column Right_ (_or left_), 2 _March_.) The movement is executed by each rank successively and on the same ground. At the second command, the pivot Scout of the front rank faces to the right in marching and takes the half step; the other Scouts of the rank oblique to the right until opposite their places in line, then execute a second right oblique and take the half step on arriving abreast of the pivot Scout. All glance toward the marching flank while at half step and take the full step without command as the last Scout arrives on the line. _Right_ (_or left_) Half Turn is executed in a similar manner. The pivot Scout makes a half change of direction to the right and the other Scouts make quarter changes in obliquing. To Turn on a Fixed Pivot Being in line, to turn and march: 1 _Squad Right_ (_or left_), 2 _March_. At the second command, the right flank Scout in the front rank faces to the right in marching and marks time; the other front rank Scouts oblique to the right, place themselves abreast of the pivot, and mark time. In the rear rank the third Scout from the right, followed in column by the second and first, moves straight to the front until in the rear of her front rank Scout, when all face to the right in marching and mark time; the other number of the rear rank moves straight to the front four paces and places herself abreast of the Scout on her right. Scouts on the new line glance toward the marching flank while marking time and, as the last Scout arrives on the line, both ranks execute _Forward March_ without further command. Being in line to turn and halt: 1 _Squad Right_ (_or left_), 2 _March_, 3 _Squad_, 4 _Halt_. The third command is given immediately after the second. The turn is executed as prescribed in the preceding paragraph except that all Scouts, on arriving on the new line mark time until the fourth command is given, when all halt. The fourth command should be given as the last Scout arrives on the line. Being in line to turn about and march: 1 _Squad Right (or left) About_, 2 _March_. At the second command the front rank twice executes Squad Right initiating the second Squad Right when the Scout on the marching flank has arrived
