Pace Sticks

Pace Sticks. A pace stick is used by a drill instructor or monitor to measure distance, interval and length of pace on the march. THE PACE STICK The pace stick is a training instrument used to gauge the length of pace and measure distance and interval. It may be used by Non-Commissioned Members which are proficient at drill. The pace stick may be carried closed or open. The open position is the operating position. The pace stick is a demanding instrument and requires constant practice. The instructor should march beside the leading squad member with the stick open and turning to control pace length over a sufficient distance to instill a feel for the correct pace in the personnel under training. When the squad has learned to march correctly, the instructor should periodically check pace length by marching behind the squad with the stick open and turning.
