A nod to the US with that Sousa March by the massed bands.

Always found it interesting that HM The Queen (even as HRH Princess Elizabeth) rode side saddle - but The Princess Royal never has.

See the escort coming up to the present with the short lived No 7 bayonets attached .

@daviddrake3504 Год назад

Think those are carried by musicians. Remember my Dad disassembling it for cleaning. Wicked point. Bayonet scabbard was constantly repainted.

@midnightteapot5633 Год назад

@@daviddrake3504 Yes the musicians carry them to this day, the guards only used them for a short time for parades before replacing them with the no 9 socket bayonet. The number 7 was supposed to be a combination fighting knife/bayonet but it was not successful in either role.

Since 1939? Did WWII put this off for that long or was it something else?

@justonecornetto80 Год назад

With rationing still in place, it was thought that the expenditure of the troop in the years after the war would be seen as an unnecessary extravagance. In reality however, most people would have been quite happy to have had a return to normality. The highlight of many British childhoods was seeing the troop and still is to this day.

The first trooping the colour after the war in 1947 was really simple. No bearskins, all the guards and massed band wore battle uniforms, no sword (except for the regimental sergeant major).
