It may have been condition 3. I qualified with the 1911a1 at Infantry OCS. I know when I was issued a 1911a1 for a specific duty (pay officer comes to mind), the weapon was carried with an empty chamber and hammer down. Of course that is probably long before most of you served and way before the war on terror.
