Where does the guide take post when the platoon is in column?

When the platoon is in column formation, the guide takes post in front of the right file of the platoon. This position allows the guide to effectively communicate commands and ensure that the entire formation maintains proper alignment and spacing. Having the guide in front of the right file provides a clear line of sight for the leader and helps in maintaining the cohesion of the unit as it moves. The guide's role is crucial for ensuring the unit stays organized and adheres to the established marching protocols within this specific formation.
