22-1. PROCEDURE AND GUIDE CHAPTER 22 MARINE CORPS BIRTHDAY CEREMONY a. The following procedure is prescribed as a guide for the conduct of the Marine Corps Birthday Ceremony. It is outlined on the basis of a Marine Corps post commanded by a general officer. At posts where no general officer is present, and in enlisted men’s messes, modifications may be made as necessary to meet local conditions. Rehearsals must be conducted to ensure that the ceremony proceeds smoothly and precisely. b. At a time selected for the commencement of the ceremony, a field music sounds attention and the officer in charge requests guests to clear the center of the dance floor. The adjutant takes post at the front of the cleared area. Drummers and trumpeters and other participants in the ceremony form at the main entrance to the ballroom. Escort draws swords. The adjutant’s sword remains in scabbard throughout the ceremony. c. On signal from the officer in charge, the doors to the ballroom are thrown open; the adjutant commands SOUND ADJUTANT’S CALL; the field music sounds ADJUTANT’S CALL; drummers take up the beat at the last note and, after a brief interval, drummers and trumpeters march onto the dance floor playing the "Foreign Legion March." Drummers and trumpeters march down a cleared lane to the far end of the dance floor, countermarch just in front of the adjutant, and followed by him, march back to the main entrance, countermarch again, and halt. Drummers and trumpeters then execute right and left step a sufficient distance to clear the entrance doorway. The adjutant moves behind the cake escort. The march is ceased upon the command of the drum major. d. The band or orchestra commences playing "Semper Fidelis." Two colonels of escort enter the ballroom together, march down the dance floor, and when an appropriate distance from the far end of the ballroom, turn right and left in marching and take station on each side of the cleared lane facing inboard. They are then followed by two lieutenant colonels, two majors, two captains, two first lieutenants, and two second lieutenants, each pair taking station at double arms interval, the two lines thus forming two long sides of a hollow rectangle. General officers, if present, or other ranking personnel, enter the ballroom in pairs by the main entrance, match down the line of escorts to the end of the ballroom, halt, face about, and form a third side of the rectangle, leaving two spaces vacant in the center of the lines. When all are in position, the band or orchestra ceases playing. e. The field music sounds "Attention." The commanding general and guest of honor, if one has been invited to participate, enter the ballroom together, march halfway down the line of escorts, and halt. The senior colonel of the escort commands PRESENT, ARMS. Officers of the escort salute. The appropriate musical honors will be rendered. The senior colonel of the escort commands ORDER, ARMS and the escort comes to the order. The commanding general and guest of honor move to the end of the line of escort (without music), halt, and face about, taking position in the center of the line of general officers. f. The field music sounds "Attention." The color guard enters the ballroom, marches halfway down the line of escorts and halts, remaining at right shoulder arms. The senior colonel of the 22-1
