Where do you walk when walking with someone senior to you?

• A. On the senior person's left.
• B. On the senior person's right.
• C. Behind them.
• D. In front of them.

Answer: (A)

In military etiquette, you walk on the senior person’s left. This places you on their left flank, a standard position when accompanying someone of higher rank. It helps keep the senior’s right arm free for signaling or saluting, makes it easier for them to address you or give instructions, and maintains proper spacing and formation as you move together. Walking on the right, in front of, or behind would disrupt this convention and hinder communication and flow of commands.
