  NOTE re ‘Eyes Left’ salute

For each Group or Section, as the leader reaches the first marker, he/she orders ‘eyes left’ – on hearing this everyone looks to the LEFT except the left side flag escort who keeps looking forward. The flag bearer lets the flag fly and the leaders salute. When the leader reaches the second marker, he/she shouts ‘eyes front’ and leaders stop saluting, everyone looks forward, and bearers recover their flags.
