Beautiful! Love the slow March.
From the U.S., your late Queen was there and was ten years old. My mama was born in April of that year. She's 87 now. It would be so good if the whole parade was available on here. 1936 the year you had three Kings.
My father, Alfred Miller, took part in that "Troop".
This is interesting. This would be King Edward VIII's only Trooping the Colour as he would abdicate in a few more months. I wonder if anyone saw that coming at the time.
His father before he died plus the people pressurising him about his relationship n9 doubt.
@@babs66 the mourning bands on their left arms are a notable bit of protocol they took to observe the recent death of the previous king, see at 0:21
