Показать описание

The "Turning Blue Ceremony" is a significant event in Infantry One Station Unit Training in the U.S. Army. It's a tradition that marks a crucial milestone in a new Infantry Soldier's journey.

During the Turning Blue Ceremony, new Soldiers receive the blue cords as a symbol of their transition to Infantry Soldiers. The cords are typically presented by their drill sergeants or family, if present, who place them on the Soldiers' right shoulder. The blue cords symbolize the Infantry Soldier's commitment to their fellow Soldiers, unit, and heritage, representing their growth, expertise, and pride in becoming part of the infantry branch.
