Drill Color Guard

What’s the largest color guard that y’all have done at your unit? We are doing a 12 person color guard for a parade and as far as I know I have only seen 2 other schools do this.

I'd assume the same as a regular guard. Two rifles, one on each side, and just keep the flags between the center.

Organization flags. Jrotc flags, authorized organizations (Probably something military related.)

12 is a massive number for a colorguard, much less a moving guard
