I am a member of Contra Costa County Sheriffs Search and Rescue in CA.  Our Equestrian Resource requires our horse rider teams to perform most of the common tasks I have seen on other units web sites, an issue among our group is a requirement to turn the horse on the forehand and hind quarters in hand and mounted.  One opinion is this is unreasonable because other units do not require it and they see no need.  The other opinion is riders should be able to move any part of the horse when desired.  Do any of your organizations require the forehand and hind quarter turns?
