      My unit of the cadets whilst at school in England was too small to have a band. It boasted just two buglers. However, I thoroughly enjoyed my time in the cadets, something which set me up for my senior school OTC in South Africa. My youngest is now in the CCF (RM unit) at his senior school in England, where he is a drummer. He enjoys it greatly, too.

I think i learned more in the cadets then i ever did in the actual army, done me well in basic training since i had already learned everything in the cadets, so the only hard bit in training was the lack of sleep.

      The march being played as the video starts is the second part of "Marching Through Georgia" which has "Swanee River" as the 'Trio'. (They play it again in its entirety as they move away from Buckingham Palace, as noted above). It might well be known as Ready, Aye Ready too of course - bugle marches often acquire multiple names. Good drills all. Well done!

    Hats off to these youngsters for their interest in becoming a member of the cadets. Hopefully they can inspire others to follow suit. On the downside - and I write this without criticism of them, but they're not yet ready for big parades, several of them kept getting out of step, others kept looking to one side in order to see what they should be doing, and few of them had got the knack of marching fully erect, shoulders back. No condemnation, but as I say, they need more experience of marching before they're ready for a general parade. They are cadets, some obviously with more experience - which shows. They're not seasoned guardsmen or marines, so we shouldn't expect too much, but I''m pretty sure that every one of them had some sense of pride in being part, and we need to feel a similar sense for them.

      @@ieoprorkr5194 Did you read my comment? Did you not see there was no criticism from me? From what you say, you confirm the fact that they weren't ready for parading. You say they were briefed, but clearly not well enough; either that or they weren't listening! I was eight years old when I joined the Life Boys - a preparation organisation for joining the Boys Brigade. We were taught to march, and in three weeks were marching at the annual Remembrance Day Parade. We weren't perfect, but we were ten times better than how these lads performed - but then, we had ex-military officers teaching us, and it was also a time when all of us had parents who served through WW2, with some of having g-parents who also served in WW1, so military marching was in our blood. If there was a hint of criticism in my comment, it was aimed at the staff who trained the lads, not the lads themselves.
