hairbear Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Was talking about company jargon with someone at work the other day and I wondered what are some of the "Drum Corps" only things people not within the activity would not understand. For Ex: Where did you march?-anyone in the activity would know exactly what you were talking about but someone outside would have no clue what that meant "head chopper" one meaning for drum corps and another for everyone else.

Can't believe no one has mentioned it - or maybe someone did and I missed it. Puppet Edited October 23, 2008 by Puppet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vickie Kingsmen Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 (edited) Mark-time, MarchIs that still used? Not much any more...it's 5..6..5,6,7,8 or 8 on Dr. Beat or 8 on the met... Anyone remember one-and-one's? What's the hap's man? I still use 'Mark time hut' and get odd looks some times... I rarely hear 'Parade Rest' these days... Remember when 'snap' meant to move quickly/sharpely. Present Arms... Ready two... Edited October 23, 2008 by Vickie Kingsmen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those two are currently in use and have been for decades in the military. And isn't it interesting that "Mark Time Mark" or just the mark in place by the DM could have been replaced by something one only heard in dancer's rehearsals?

84BDsop Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Present Arms... Ready two... The correct phrase is Order Arms, not Ready Two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuyW Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 The correct phrase is Order Arms, not Ready Two I wouldn't remember otherwise (probably), but I have a mpeg of a standstill from 1972, where the guard captain (my sister) clearly says, "Ready, two" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
