Which two standing drill movements start on the right foot?

• A. Left step; parade rest
• B. Forward march; halt
• C. Left face; about face
• D. Right step; about face

Answer: (D)

In drill, movements have a designated starting foot from the current stance. The right step and the about face both begin with the right foot moving first. The right step is exactly that—you step off with the right foot to start moving. About face is a 180-degree turn executed by pivoting on the right foot, so the action starts from the right foot as the base before turning. The other options start with the left foot or are stationary, so they don’t begin on the right.
