Bearskins.

The drill has not changed one little bit in 60 years great to see, well done lads.

Fantastic!! Very beautiful and interesting, indeed! Thank you so much for your videos, that I always appreciate. Best greetings from your italian fan

Fantastic as always, Wiltshire

The Officer wearing the "red sash" is in fact a Senior NCO, the gun is a rifle SA80 5.56mm, the head-dress is a bear skin - all troops in the Guards are known by other unit/Regts as "wooden tops"

Brilliant, thanks for the help with that 👍

Respectfully, as someone who makes so many Guards videos, you really do need to do some homework. Officers: double-breasted greatcoat, sword poking out, tall bearskin caps. Other ranks: single-breasted greatcoats, shorter, rounder bearskins. Warrant Officer Classes 1&2 (WO1 Garrison & Regimental, & WO2 Company Sergeant Majors) and Senior Non-Commissioned Officers SNCOs (Sgts & Colour Sgts): Sash, one of the oldest parts of British Army infantry uniform (from days of pikes, to wipe off blood, hence red) which became a useful immediately visible way of identifying senior enlisted troops. Red wool (WO1s on State occasions, crimson silk) settling over time to be worn over right shoulder. (Rarely seen now because of amalgamations, but a small number of light infantry/rifle regiments wear it over left shoulder.) The sash is not worn in greatcoat order outside Guards’ battalions (hence also not worn by WOs or SNCOs in Guards’ bands). Also, artillery has guns, infantry has rifles/personal weapons.

@@TheKingsGuardsChannel okay thankyou, another awesome video, just with the flag flying above B/P , King is in, wouldn’t he have been in hospital then, or Clarence House ?

Those instruments were, as you said a Drum and a TROMBONE not a TRUMPET.

Fixing and unfixing bayonets is a basic drill movement that is taught to every recruit in every British Commonwealth Military force, so nothing out standing here!
