I was part (C Coy) of the very last time the old 1st Bn Royal Fusiliers, City of London Regiment marched through the City in 1967 just prior to the formation of the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers the following year. "Once a Fusilier, always a Fusilier!" ....and I still have my all-white hackle!

I also joined the Fusilier Association, the Salford branch though I'm nowhere near there these days. It's the nearest to my old home and my family.
Another excellent British Parade with all its pageantry. I've been interested in the British Military for quite a while now, not the least in the drill with the SA80 (L85A2). But I have never seen so far troops MARCHING with SHOULDERED (and not SLOPED) arms (see around 2.00 in the Video). Can anyone explain?

Indeed! That marching contingent is from the Canadian Army. In Canada we march with the rifle at the shouldered position!

@@1812AndMore That was a quick reply! Thank you very much for widening my knowledge. Some years ago I was a fascinated spectator of the mounting of the Canadian Guards at Ottawa (but they did not have the SA 80, of course). And I was also impressed by the "French" Redcoats in Quebec. Fond memories ...

Canadians. We don't slop arms due to the difference in rifles. It was for the sake of simplicity.

If I’m not mistaken they can eliminate that effect with the help of a gimbal nowadays,not sure if they were common during the videoing of this.I know they’ve come a long way in how well they work.Still credit is deserved for keeping up with the fast pace.
