INFANTRYMAN’S GUIDE: Basic Hand & Arm Signals

In this edition of Infantryman’s guide, we will look at some of the most basic hand and arm signals organic to the individual infantryman. For more information about these hand and arm signals, please Goggle search the publications I listed on the reference page of this video. All of those pubs can be easily found in a free downloadable PDF format online and available from .mil websites. **Clarification on two of the signals guys: In this video I stated two of the signals are called “change direction“. In Scouting & Patrolling MCI 0336 both of these signals are listed as such (Change direction). However, in the Marine Rifle Squad MCWP 3-11 one signal is called “Change Direction; or column right/left“ & the other is called “Shift“. Both are essentially used in changing a direction of its intended recipients.** Thanks for watching.
