What is a CO’s Parade?
The purpose of the CO’s parade is to allow the CO to inspect each troop, and issue awards & promotions. The inspection consists of the CO & party reviewing the uniforms of all the cadets, and periodically asking some cadets some general questions about the corps.
To prepare for the CO’s parade, you can do the following:
- Polish your boots (if you have parade boots. Otherwise, just clean and blacken)
- Clean & Iron your pants so they have a single, sharp crease down the front and back of each leg;
- Clean & Iron your tunic so there are no creases; and
- Clean & Iron your dress shirt so there is a single sharp, crease down each arm
If you have any questions, ask your troop commander!
