From a halt at attention.

  1. While running at double time
  2. From parade rest
  3. From a halt at attention ✔

Why: Right face, left face, and about face begin while halted at attention. Standard facing movements use two counts.

Huh, didn't know that: Right face and left face turn the body 90 degrees.

The dad joke
Why did the cadet face right? Left was already taken.
