Its got color!

Ah, still 2 commands where you start marching from the right foot. ;D
Bummer, one of the MTI's in the last version was my MTI in 1990! SSgt Walker. He is a monster of a man but a great instructor!

Per the book, three, actually. One of which is wrong.
It has the word "releasability". Is that even a real word?

Outside the fence at Lackland? Doubtful.

Nah, it's a classic "Rumsfeldism".
I found releasability on the Merriam Webster's online dictionary...

I can't see the definition unless I activate a "

Cadet, you hexed me.
I am not subscribed, yet I found the answer by googling it. After I read your answer I clicked on my own posting. Yep, got the message "you have to subscribe..."

I had to check what "hexed" meant. I did not in any way, shape, or form practice witchcraft.

Just asking....but what three commands start you marching on the right foot?

What exactly is a "GoogleBot"?
Does anyone know if any of the changes made to this manual conflict with any current CAP training material and/or exams?
Unless you see a note, figure it does not. Par for the course, that CAP exams are updated .. much later than the regulations they cite.
Just ask the Communications people. :)

This is cadet trivia 101.
I'll give you the easy one: right step, march.
The hard one?
The wrong one?
(the third one is STILL a typo in the manual, 13-14 years after we called Lackland and confirmed that)
Right Step March and Close March start on the right foot....they are both mentioned in the text as the only commands where you start marching on the right foot.
Face in marching is the wrong one.
Am I right?

*ding* Winner, winner, chicken dinner.
Couldn't the Civil Air Patrol just adopt the Air Force Instruction by reference and just be done with it. That way when the Air Force Updates their instruction it automatically updates the CAP regulation?
don't we already?
I mean, we don't have "CAPM 50-14" or similar (the old rebadged D&C manual).
We do refer to the AFMAN by name/number in pubs

What exactly is a "GoogleBot"?
Basically, it's Google's robot that crawls the web (as opposed to your User Agent of whatever web browser you're using). Websites see GoogleBot and allow it to index sites that require a subscription for people, so their pages appear in Google's search results. You can spoof yourself as Google to view some such sites.

Another first on CAPTalk: A thread goes technical instead of uniform.
Not for long. You turned it into an uniform thread! :P

Sort of in a manner I suppose. CAPM 50-14 specifically states that it's a document to be used in Grading cadet competitions.
and CAPR 52-14 state that the AFMAN 36-2203 be used to grade cadet promotions.

I must say .. for the "web team", you're asking some -interesting- questions. :D Hit the Interwebs.. :)
I say in jest.. not to worry..
The "Web Team" is just a group of cadets who maintain the squadron's website. It is almost complete. A person doesn't have to have a degree in electrical engineering to be on it. However, knowing a little HTML is helpful. (I will add my knowledge of making my web browser look like a Googlebot to my list of "evil genius" stuff, like picking locks... ;) )

Since it is hard to judge tone and intent via written communication like forums at times. I would not be advertising publicly like lock picking.

I was kidding. However, I can understand how people may become confused.
For example, which would look like you were angry if you were texting with the average person?
no
No.
Disclaimer: I cannot pick locks, build bombs, hack websites, etc. My post was intended as a joke and should be taken as such.
You know the story of the guy that saw a friend at the airport and yelled his friend's name in greeting, right?
He was arrested by TSA who did not take kindly as he yelled "Hi Jack!"
:(
Moral of the story: be careful, very careful when you post or say things in public!
