      Jack has always been less than perfect on the parade ground. That is what our Bootnecks are for. With Naval GI's they first operate to remove most of their brains. And If you believe that this lot have spent 3 yrs at sea, You'll believe anything. The most they spend at sea nowadays is 6 months at the most. There is none today in the Pusser to do a full commission abroad of 36 months. And even back then no one did 3yrs at sea. The Yanks in their own way have still got a real Navy, unlike our Navy where we can not afford the fuel to send a coherent Task Force to regions of the World where they might be needed. Back in 1963 we had 27 Capital Ships in the Far East Fleet alone. Besides those in the Med Fleet, and the Home Fleet.

      Basically, bringing armies and soldiers into cities was a big no-no and everything from taboo to illegal in many cultures, particularly in ancient Rome where this originates. It's one of the reasons why when you read about Caesar's march across the Rubicon as being such a big deal and when his army entered the city, that was also a big deal because armies are not supposed to enter cities as it more or less implies some sort of assault.
      However, cities can do what is called "Granting the Freedom" to an army or group of armed forces that basically gives them permission to march within their city in uniform with their weapons. It is sort of an official and ceremonial way of basically saying, "We know you are armed and deadly and marching together as an army, but we're cool with you and allow you to do this". It's just a ceremonial sort of "reward" so to speak that is granted from time to time to armed forces.
      This particular crew was from the HMS Enterprise which has always been associated with this particular town. Their city council voted to allow granting the freedom to them.
      So in a nut shell, the TL:DR version is the city is showing appreciation to a crew by allowing them to do a small parade in uniform so the citizens can go out and cheer them on to show their gratitude for their service.

      In chile we have very a very professional army and navy
      Probably not as aggressive or effective in combat ( doesn't really need it)as brits.
      However during process of formation and long service,we are very professional
      And all seems to be reflected during marching performance.
      I love to watch different parades,tatoo,militar bands,etc. around the globe and to be honest ...
      This one looks very poor ,: different sizes of people align ,chatting and smiling themselves during formation,badly shaved ( like a computer shop guy with uniform)
      I invite you to watch chilean marching in you tube.
      pd: when i said we don't need to be aggressive is not because we are cowards,is because we are not looking for conflicts around the world...
