The SSGT Escort Position is commonly referred to as what?

• A. 1 on 1
• B. 2 on 1
• C. No escort position
• D. 3 on 1

Answer: (B)

In escort drill terminology, the number of guards accompanying a single person defines how the posture is described. For the SSGT Escort Position, two guards accompany one person, forming a two-on-one arrangement. This setup provides immediate protective coverage on multiple angles, helps maintain a controlled pace, and allows quick reaction to any threat from the sides or ahead. The other options describe fewer or more escorts or no escort at all, which don’t match the standard protection and control provided by a two-on-one configuration. So the commonly used descriptor for this position is two on one.
