The team uses M-1 rifles for practice and competition and is active in several different arenas. The team competes in drill meets at Tulane University in New Orleans and in the Tri-Service Competition held annually at the University of Virginia. The Drill Team also marches in several parades throughout the course of the year and performs demonstrations for local youth groups.
Standard competition consists of performing predetermined commands within a specified drill area.
This sequence is timed and the team is judged on it's execution and teamwork. Exhibition competition provides more of an opportunity to perform difficult maneuvers with the weapons. The team practices diligently to adequately represent the Detachment and the Air Force.
