I'm writing something, and I want soldiers drilling to affix bayonets.

Is there a command to affix bayonets?

 Yes.  In the Marine Corps (of 50 years ago, anyway) the command was "Fix Bayonets."  I assume it's the same in other branches of the military?

Monroe: Same in the army

Casey Taylor: Well, it would be the same in the Army.  We don't teach the bayonet anymore.

Michael Labeit: We fixed bayonets in basic. Dumb and anachronistic.

Is this a suggestion for a Ricochet feature? Maybe a little button alongside Bold, Italic, Underline?
