I am looking for any or all information on the Color Guard of the Union Army.
As a Reenactor, I am now the Color Sergeant of a Battalion of about 150 men.
I am aware of all the Basics, I am looking for the details.
How to form the Color Guard next to the Color Company? I believe we form separte, then attach.
How to carry the Colors when marching in a colum of 4? Colors flying or held to the pole? And when for each?
When on the March...A space in front and a space in the rear of the Color Guard? If so, how much space?
DURING MARCHING AND BATTLE....When to let the Colors fly and when to hold the Colors to the Pole?
DURING DRESS PARADE...........When to let the Colors fly and when to hold the Colors to the Pole?
Where in the Battalion would the Color Sergeant's tent be?
