YEa, I'm definitely right about the Marine Corps Drill and Ceremonies Manual. I highly suggest you follow it. Do not tilt the flags to 45 degrees. Especially if you're being graded by Army, MC, or Navy judges. They WILL deduct points for it, as 99% of competitionts follow MCD&CM rules.

Also, your hands never go behind your back for flags. This change was made in 2003 to all drill manuals. Your hand comes to the front to the cup.
