In drill and ceremonies, what are they two parts of a command?

  • Prepatory Command
      This command tells you what you will be doing. There are exceptions though. When you are at ease, and the prepartory command "platoon" is called, you snap to parade rest. The command of execution comes after this, unless the command "As you were" is given. In that case, you go back to whatever position you were at or you ignore the prepatory command that was given.
  • Command of Execution
      This command is right after the prepatory command. This basically tells you to do what the prepatory command is.
