The battalion passes in review as before, except that the
cannoneers' arms are not folded and that no salutes are ren-
dered, except by the major when he leaves the reviewing officer.
The review terminates when the rear battery has passed the
reviewing officer; the band then ceases to play and rejoins the
battalion or is dismissed. The major and his staff rejoin the
battalion.
The reviewing officer may prescribe how often the column
shall pass in review and the gait or gaits to be used.

review in that formation.

prescribed under Battalion Review. The review then proceeds
as in the battalion review, substituting colonel for major and
regiment for battalion.
In riding around the regiment, the reviewing officer passes
to the left in rear of the line of majors, then returns in rear of
the line of carriages to the right.
