    In an US Army Formation: We Order Arms from Right Shoulder Arms before any Close Order Drill commands are given such as Right-Left Face. Then the command to Right Shoulder Arms is given. Then we March. I trained in basic with the old M1 rifle.
    I always admire how the British Army conducts their Manual of Arms.

Aren't they Guards? As i read in comments in many videos, there's always someone complaining to the Guards: about trousers short (it's the tailor's fault!), about their height, about facial hair... instead of praising them, i don't know why!

      ⁠​⁠@@AlbaAlba-fg2iogood Wednesday morning, friend. From what I gather, they are involved in communications for the British army in different capacities. I think they are guards too. I think that a lot of the complainers are former military members who can’t accept that change is inevitable as far as women serving, short/wee/petite people serving and facial hair. Or it’s a bunch of grumpy Gus’s and Gertrude’s.

    'twas not how I was taught in the Army of Oz to conduct an inspection! The officer is not supposed to handle the soldier but the accompanying Platoon Sgt may do a minimal adjustment after asking the soldier concerned - otherwise after the inspection when troops are at ease and as privately as possible. Other points can be brought out but too long to explain here.

    A couple of small observations, the majority the guards trousers are too short, you not be able to see the top of the boots or socks while marching, should but at least they appear to be wearing braces, they just need to be let down a couple of lace holes, the 2nd observation is the Colour Sgt, although I’m sure he’ll be a Staff Sgt in the corps, it’s that circular motion he makes while swinging his right arm, it looks awful, however you do see a small number of individuals in the guards regiments carrying out the same habit, just noticed he didn’t do it while marching with the guard, good in him.
    Fair play they look pretty switched on.

      The Royal Signals do not have colour sergeants as they do not have colours. Women officers and soldiers wear soft top caps, unlike the Household Division. Also note that the officers wear overall trousers, with a strap under the instep, George boots and spurs. Foot guard officers do not wear spurs, unless they are mounted.

    I have a daughter who's a sergeant in the Royal Australian Air Force. I've proudly watched her march out in command of a (all female) catafalque party on Anzac Day at a sporting event in front of thousands of spectators and many more watching it live on television.
    So I'm a bit uncertain as to why this display bothers me a bit.
    Maybe I still struggle with the concept of women carrying swords, which historically was never really a thing or just being in command of male combatants.
    I didn't like that old Chealsea Pensioner yelling out like that. Attention seeking, I think.
    Couldn't get over the size of that little guy on the right.

      No offense but times change. Plenty of women who are or required to carry swords if they are in the military. We’re not all helpless. And some people don’t like seeing short/wee/petite soldiers but as long as they meet the requirements, why not? Some military regiments are struggling to get soldiers.
