A correctly delivered command is loud and distinct enough for everyone in the element to hear. It is given in a tone, cadence, and snap that demand a willing, correct, and immediate response. A voice with the right qualities of loudness, projection, distinctness, inflection, and snap enables a commander to obtain effective results. This is the volume used in giving a command, it should be adjusted to the distance and number of individuals in the formation. Projection is the ability of your voice to reach whatever distance is desired without undue strain. Distinctness depends on the correct use of the tongue, lips, and teeth to form the separate sounds of a word and to group those sounds to force words. Inflection is the change in pitch of the voice, a properly delivered command of execution has no inflection, however, it should be given at a higher pitch than the preparatory command. Snap is that extra quality in a command that demands immediate response, it expresses confidence and decisiveness, it indicates complete control of yourself and the situation.
