n the United States Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard and Air Force, a guidon is a military standard that company/battery/troop or platoon-sized detachments carry to signify their unit designation and branch/corps affiliation or the title of the individual who carries it.


Wiki clarifies....

Yes. Truth.

But simplify it a little more, for those that might not know....it's a FLAG.

Not dissing you AUTimbo, in any way, because you are correct......Just trying to say this for those out there who don't know.

While many other students ran through the halls shouting or hid during the attack, Bialy and two friends tried to tackle one of the gunmen. Bialy’s friend Kendrick Castillo, 18, was killed in the shooting.


quote:

Bialy, who was uninjured aside from a few scrapes on his knees, made a split-second decision to take action after seeing Castillo unhesitatingly throw himself on the shooter, he told reporters this spring.

“I don’t like the idea of running and hiding,” the Denver Post reported Bialy saying.

After seeing Castillo on the ground, not moving, Bialy tried to resuscitate his friend, who he’d known since freshman year. “Kendrick Castillo died a legend,” he said. “I know he will be with me for the rest of my life.”
