I wanted to make sure I got the right information to you. According to Casey'swWhen he writes "changed front to rear on its right" the word "right" means first company. So the regulation command would be

"Change front to the rear, on first company"
"Battalion, about-FACE"
"By company, left half wheel"
"MARCH (or double quick-MARCH)"
