Once upon a time when Britain had an army

In those days Horse Guards was full when we had a proper Amy compared with the tiny thing we have now

The tune from 2:00 - 2:15s that sounds like a church hymn is wonderful.

Year Eden should have told Eisenhower to drop dead, pressed on another forty eight hours, fired Macmillan and Mountbatten, and sent Nasser running to Switzerland.! It would have blown over in a couple weeks, Ike would have ended up making nice, and NATO would have emerged twice as strong for it. Proportionally Britain would today have three times the ships, twice the planes and troops, thirty times the square mileage, and twice the wealth. And fifty million more Africans and Middke Easterners would be alive. The consequences of Suez beggar compilation. A tragedy for the West, and in Eisenhower's own admission "the worst damn fool mistake" he ever made.

There were simply no niggers.

A parade so sharp you could cut silk with it. But then, our cousins in the British Army have a certain reputation to maintain, don't they? A respectful tip of the Stetson from an old American cavalryman from half a world away.

That’s when Grenadiers were Grenadiers!!!

This is one of the older ones I have seen on YT. After my father completed his service in the Life Guards, the joined the Met Police Mounted Branch. His police work horse, Imperial, was the Queen's ceremonial horse for Trooping the Colour from 1962-65. My father died back in 1985, only 55 years old, but my mother still has a large framed B&W photo of my father on duty on Imperial, with the Queen holding the bridle. She also still has a huge print of the Queen, riding Imperial, in the uniform of the Scots Guards, which was painted by Leonard Boden, hanging on the wall in the living room. My father also instructed Princess Margaret in riding side-saddle. How the decades fly past!

5:05 - 7:47

All guarda completed and no one absent unlike today only 6 guards go on parade

Huge Guard, full band, Full Sovereign's Escort and no beards!

Drill here in impeccable especially the phase where the RSM receives the colour, fast forward to 2024 and tell me what you think.

Something happened to your Queen in the 70s she became a man? Trousers and cross saddle😂😂😂

Me and Troy sausage UA-cam

It’s sad to think that every horse, soldier in this video are now dead. New generations to come and go. RIP. You served the late Queen well. 😢

Yes and they all had to be the same height then and there they have bayonets on the end of their rifles, they were very sharp looking then. Today all different sizes and some even have turbans on, which I don’t like they should all be wearing Bear skins, as is the tradition, which should never be changed. I’m not racist, but their uniforms should all be the same. Many moustaches then, full regalia. Very smart. 😊

Love the queen on horse

Grand. Thanks & subbed.

Best even to ever happen in London, also can someone please explain why slope arms gaveway to shoulder arms in the slr

God Save the Queen

This was indeed impressive. All the more so because of the rigidly adhered to height and weight standards. These guardsmen were noticeably taller and thinner. As for the precision of the drill, well, today's Guards divisions could benefit from more practice. Now that they're no longer deployed to Afghanistan, perhaps more emphasis will be paid to the basics.

The guards looks so tall compared to the queen

Awesome..

they look taller and skinnier

This has to be one of the best trooping the colours recorded. As an aspiring officer and drill connoisseur, I love the sharpness of the commands and the high standard of drill. Probably my most watched video on UA-cam.
