wheeling maneuver, pivoting
Explanation:

zahoditi - to wheel, turn
zahođenje - pivoting, wheeling man(o)euver
[Min. narodne odbrane, Engleski vojni rečnik]


Through rapid marching, Napoleon conducted a large wheeling maneuver that captured an Austrian army of 23,000 under General Mack on October 20 at Ulm, bringing the total number of Austrian prisoners in the campaign to 60,000.
( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulm_Campaign )


The soldier turns, pivoting on his heels, 90°, and is now facing left.

You then execute a 180 degree turn by pivoting on your left foot and then bringing the right foot even with the left foot. To turn while marching, you would pivot the desired direction on one heel and then continue with the march.
