Every foreign military video I always see comments about the U.S. but when you go to U.S. military videos you don’t see comments about foreign countries...
Funny how that always happens. Correct me if I'm wrong here please but based on the red tunics and location I'd assume these are Scots Guardsmen. I think I recall from my London visit to the Scots Guard museum that their tunics feature the button configuration we see here. If that's the case, I'd also excuse a few slight mishaps. People tend to forget that there are two types of units in the corps of a military or paramilitary organization: parade units and action units. While the Scotts Guards definitely serve in many ceremonial roles, they are first and foremost a fighting regiment and always have been. I think those of us who aren't from Britain or especially the commonwealth think the Foot Guards regiments only serve to guard estates of the crown but these regiments saw combat as recently as Afghanistan and the Falklands. So being a fraction of a section or a half step off mark isn't going to bother me.
@@51stparedoctober4 yes most likely this is not a ceremonial unit based on the fact they are doing street lining duties. They are probably part of the 1st battalion the Scots guards which are the combat unit of the regiment, the ceremonial unit F-company will most likely be doing the marching Down the street.
Bit messy, but as an American the British adherence to drill still impresses me. In the US military, drill is not one of our strong suits (outside of the Old Guard and other such units). I know that I was never interested in a ceremony unless there was a grog bowl at the end of it (do they get grog after escorting the crown?). I did spend some time cross-training with the Brits and always had a blast with them. Great guys, good to work with and always had great motivation and spirit. Favorite army to work with, whether in training or on operations (the Germans aren't half bad, but they're so damn serious).
When I was a young reservist in a Canadian Army reserve unit many decades ago, and preparing for our passing-out (graduation) parade we had special steel plates nailed to the heels of our parade boots so they would make a satisfying 'crump' sound when we executed drill movements like coming to attention, standing at ease, coming to a halt and marching. Foot drill in the Canadian Army is pretty much 99% identical to British Army foot drill and virtually all of the drill movements are the same. I remember that my parents came to see the passing-out parade and after we were dismissed, I was talking to my mother, who said she thought the sound of those heel plates was pretty cool.
As a former reservist in the Canadian Army, I agree. But pretty much all of the drill movements, save for the 'make two ranks' movement are 100% familiar to me. If I was still in the reserves today, despite having reached the ripe old age of sixty-something, I wouldn't have much trouble executing the drill commands seen in this video. I guess that's why they call it drill, because the commands and movements are drilled in so deeply, you can't forget. One thing I thought was interesting was how the officer in command of the parade really didn't have to yell, he was able to project commands clearly with a normal, if a bit elevated tone of voice.
silliest sususagest yet the United Kingdom (and the Commonwealth) still views Queen Elizabeth II as their official Head of State who just so happens to live in London, England.
All of these comments about them messing up are a bit harsh, apart from the one guardsman who obviously got his count wrong, the rest of them were normally placed. It is perfectly normal to see the rsm using his pace stick to make sure they are perfectly measured apart.
@@MattF_03 you made me go search for my old unit parading with iron sights and bayonets on armistice day , early 2000's. only got SUSAT's for competitions, pre deployment and deployment. the for-sight can be removed . just seems pointless . they fold arms and change arms to rest . just take the damn SUSAT off.
As an Irish person watching british humor and seeing pictures of their army HECK! Even watching british RUclipsrs makes me wanna be british for some reason
after probably years or like 6 months or more of training its pretty interesting how that guard messes up, saw a guard near him and then turns and continues marching like nothing happened i wonder what was in his head when he realized he messed up
I was at pirbright 1972 as a boy soldier ( junior guardsmans wing ), we were punched kicked & run into the ground on the march & shoots. I will never forget during a drill session our L/sgt hitting a recruits hand with his stick bacause his hand wasnt in line with the seam of his trousers ( he broke his finger ) the L/ sgt was busted to guardsman back then it was kind of expected we would be knocked about. Looking back I wouldnt change my experience at the guards depot for anything. The passing out parade was the proudest day of my life, leaving that hell whole was such a releif.
Yes and it was twats like the L/Sgt that that that caused the problems at Deep Cut. Bullies have no place. Read a drill manual. The reality is quite different.
Now thats what guardsmen today are lacking, they dont go through those grueling tough military training anymore nowadays in the guards depot like your era, thus you get this.. marching poorly and not knowing to even count 6 phases like this 2:50

In the Guards Lance Corporals wear 2 stripes, Corporals wear 3 stripes and Sergeants also wear 3 stripes. The way to distinguish between Corporals and Sergeants is the colour of the stripes. Corporals wear silver and the Sergeants wear gold. Hope this makes sense.
