    As the son of an old bootneck who served in 45 commando during ww2 and was ststioned at Lympstone I am proud of him and what he and his comrades achieved between 1939 and 1945. The finest of them all.

    The Royal Surry regiment was raised and given a royal charter on Putney heath in 1664, they were sent aboard ship to help Queen Charlotte of Portugal, on returning to England a contingent of soldiers stayed on board under a Captain Villiers and the contingent became known as The Villiers Marines, and the Royal Marines were born.

    When living in Exton (which is the closest village to the camp) I used to enjoy watching the recruits training in the estuary mud whilst being shouted at by the Instructors.Use to get a free fire work display too watching from the cycle path.

      It’s a speed March marching and breaking into double time combined to make a speed march, which is designed to cover longer distances as a large group of men.

    Impressive to keep it up for some time, however soldiers of the Light Devision march at that pace as their double time, at 180 paces per minute, as their normal marching pace was 140 paces per minute, compared to the rest of the army’s pace of 120.

    • @jean6872

      The Spanish Legion's march step is faster than the Spanish military standard, being also 160-180 steps per minute in contrast to the usual 90 steps per minute.

    Royal Marines and Paras always look like someone you wouldn't mess with......super-fit guys, all of 'em. The Argies destroyed most of the helicopters when they sunk the Atlantic Conveyer during the Falklands campaign, so the Marines and Paras marched 50 miles with all their kit, and still dicked 'em.
