At the Route Step

This link on the Authentic Campaigner website was pointed out to me several months ago, and I thought that I would share this with everyone.

Generally, when the order to march at the route step is ordered, it is assumed that the soldier no longer needs to keep in step and that they may carry the rifle in whichever way he feels most comfortable. This debate flaired up, and interestingly enough, some folks went back to the drill manuals to see what they say! What craziness!
