o “Cadet X, Charlie Flight, C/Major Randazzo (or FAO Alonzo)”
• When given order, close door, and march in most direct route to center self 2 paces away from individual (square corners except on carpet just turn in crisp, military manner)
• Salute if reporting in to officer or CTA, hold salute until it is returned, remain at position of attention until told otherwise
• Will state: “Sir/Ma’am, Cadet X reports as ordered” while saluting*
• Do not drop salute until the individual drops his/her salute
• At end of conversation, stand at position of attention and ask “Will that be all sir/ma’am?” (don’t say this if they say “that will be all”)
• If so, take one step backwards, salute, and render proper greeting of the day
• Perform appropriate facing movement to leave and take most direct route out of office (square corners and if on carpet turn in crisp, military manner)
