21 ANNEX G - TEAM INSPECTION EVENT INSTRUCTIONS 1. General Information. Teams will formulate their Unit Inspection Team. THE UNIT WILL BE FORMED WITH FOUR (4) SQUADS OF THREE (3) CADETS EACH AND CENTERED ON THE HEAD JUDGE. GRADERS WILL HAVE NO MORE THAN 10 MINUTES PER PLATOON TO COMPLETE THE INSPECTION! a. For the Unarmed Inspection, the Cadet Commander halts the platoon and then will command, Open Ranks, March, Dress Right, Dress, Ready Front, execute an About Face, salute and Report In to the Head Judge with the unit at attention. Do not have the unit salute the Head Judge in Unit Inspection. Units that DO will be penalized 10 points by the Head Judge only. After the report in, the Head Judge will tell the Cadet Commander to take me through the inspection. b. The Platoon Commander will bring formation to parade rest during the conduct of the inspection, each cadet individually will come to the position of attention when the inspector steps in front of them and remain so until the inspector steps away to the next cadet. When the Head Judge finishes inspecting the 1st squad, the Cadet Commander will return to the position in front of the unit and face the unit. When all judging has concluded, the Cadet Commander will then execute an About Face, salute and verbally report out. The Head Judge will return the salute and dismiss the Commander. The Commander then executes an About Face, closes ranks and executes the correct File or Column of Files command to exit the inspection area. 2. Alignment. See the diagram below to see correct alignment of the platoon for both armed and unarmed inspection. X X X X O- Head Judge O CC X X X X CC- Cadet Commander X X X X 3. Related Inspection Matters. a. Male hair length should correspond to the team's particular service regulations. No hair may touch the collar. Females with long hair will have their hair "put -up" to ensure conformity to the service manual in use by the cadet. General appearance should be well groomed and uniforms should be well prepared. b. Teams will be inspected using their own uniforms as the standard. The way one looks is the way they all should look. 21

22 c. Leather shoes or corofram shoes are appropriate wear for all portions of the competition. While corofram shoes are comparatively easy to maintain, leather shoes will require a great deal more effort to achieve the same appearance and must be so maintained. Should corofram shoes be worn, the judging standard will demand absolute perfection to achieve the same score as well-maintained leather shoes. d. Simultaneous Wear of Medals and Ribbon on the Army Cadet Service Uniform. Draft Revision of Cadet Command Regulation dated 23 JUN 15 states that ribbons and medals may not be worn simultaneously on the Army Cadet Service Uniform. During ARMED and UNARMED PLATOON INSPECTION, the first team violation found during Armed or Unarmed Inspection will be treated as a MAJOR violation (deduct 50 points). 2 nd and subsequent team violations will be treated as a MINOR violation (deduct additional 20 points). Teams for other services (NJROTC, AFJROTC and MCJROTC) will comply with their services instructions on wear of medals and ribbons. 4. Cadet Knowledge Questions / Verbal Responses. Inspection will include questions to determine a cadet's poise, confidence, overall military, government, and historical knowledge, along with specific questions about their service branch. Examples of possible questions include the following: a. Names of present and very recent past Presidents and Vice-Presidents. b. Questions about any ribbons, medals, etc. found on the Cadet's uniform. c. The Cadet's school name, school nickname, school Principal's name, SAI. d. Home-state capital, national capital. e. Common knowledge of current events. f. Mission of JROTC. g. Five colors on a military map h. Inspecting Judges rank. i. What is 2nd BDE ROTC and who is the current Brigade Commander and Command Sergeant Major. 22

23 IMPORTANT NOTE: Judges will ask questions during inspection they do not expect the cadet to answer correctly, if at all. Do not allow your cadets to become flustered by this line of questioning, thus losing their military bearing! If a cadet does not know the answer to any question posed to him/her, a strong "The cadet does not know, sir!" or any similar statement taught in your program will be the best response possible. While it is rare, a judge may incorrectly apply a regulation from their service to that of your team's service branch. If your cadets feel a rule has been incorrectly applied to their unit, DO NOT LET THEM BELABOR THE POINT WITH THE JUDGES DURING INSPECTION! If the judge presses a point a cadet feels is incorrect, the correct response should be sir, I have been instructed that "thus & so" is correct". DO NOT LOSE MILITARY BEARING! Should this occur, the SAI or AI should, (after completing the inspection process), immediately contact the judging director and discuss the incident. He will then contact the judge and ensure the score sheets reflect the correct rule interpretation and scoring. 23
