In "Right turn" the right guide is the pivot of the front rank.
In "Column right" the right flank man of the leading squad is the pivot, not the guide.
In "Right by squads" the right guide (when he has posted himself in front of the right squad) takes four short steps and then resumes the full step. The right squad conforms.
"Squads right about." If the company or platoons are in column of squads, file closers turn about toward the column and take posts. If in line, each darts through the nearest interval between squads. The right and left guides place themselves in the new front rank. File closers on facing about, maintain their relative positions.
When the company executes "About face", guides place themselves in the new front rank.
In "Right front into line, double time" halting and aligning commands are omitted. Guide is toward side of the first unit.
In "Take interval" or "Take distance" guides drop back at the first command.
In "Squads right" or "Platoons, column right" interior guides of platoons cross the company. A good rule for beginners is always to cross over (except in "column right").
Guide of a company in line is right (unless otherwise announced).
Guide of a platoon in line is right.
