The Queen and Prince on horse, the troops with the much proper-looking SLR, Police in ceremonials, people very well-dressed. Fantastic and long gone year for a Trooping the Colour.
Agreed though police in ceremonial would require more police. You can’t have no armed police especially when a monarch is metres away
Police wearing ceremonial uniforms. As a little boy with a standing ticket, a policieman in his special uniform unhooked his rolled cape from his belt for me to sit on. What with my Dad on parade, wasn't a prouder little lad in London
Back then, it was remarkable to see the Queen like that in 'pink' and riding side-saddle.
Hard to believe she is no longer with us.
Interesting, I notice the arm-swing doesn't seem as high as today's drill, and the knee doesn't seem to lift to nearly waist-height in front, when coming to attention/stopping/turning about etc. In fact, the leg seems to only raise a fairly small amount, and then go down. Actually looks more comfortable.
Yeah and horses look smaller household. And guns are different
Its quite a sight seeing the queen riding at the head of her foot guards up the mall.
Yes, the drill back in the 50's was not so clear. There was lots of "cow kicks" then in the 60's it picked up and the knees bent slightly higher, but the "swagger" was not good but it did die out. My drill is that learnt in the 60's and now it does seem simialr but the Guards do seem to over emphasise sometimes and almost skid when coming to attention. Another detail is that the arms didn't swing as high in the 30s-50s then again in the 60's, shoulder high "up and back" our Drill Sgt would scream! The Halt was always ragged but then came the long forward straight leg stride that sorted that out and seems to still exist today. OK, its back the square now.... :-)
technicolor made even dreary London look Wonderful
Every gentleman wore a hat and tails at the time; unlike, I dunno. . .
These days.

What is the march playing when the Guards march past the Buckingham Palace gates?
What is the march that is being played at 4:20? It’s really good!
Does anyone know the two music marches at 5:30, and then at 6:40?
The first is Marching Sergeants. I don't know the second.
when we had an army
We still have one. It’s just sadly too small
If the recent conflict in Ukraine has taught us anything, bigger army doesn't mean better. I'd rather have a smaller well drilled fighting force than hundreds of thousands of sub par conscripts.
@@generaladvance5812 yes, but what we have lost is more than just men or boots on the ground, we’ve lost the finest soldiers in the world, whole regiments with hundreds of years history and battle honours just wiped out by short sighted Whitehall pen pushers, unforgivable.
@@trondog8503 Don't get me wrong, I do understand what you mean. But we still have top tier troops & still have many old & famous regiments. Coldstreams guards, Grenadier Guards, Household Cavalry & Ghurkha rifles and more. I might be wrong on this but surely as long as we have the colours of each regiment & records of their existence they could be brought back if the need of more troops arises anyway?
I think even during this trooping in 1964, the empire is already crumbling and with every piece of territory lost you need fewer & fewer troops as a result. We just don't have the need of so many troops right now, at least as things stand.
@@generaladvance5812 I agree we no longer need an army to police an empire that no longer exists, but 82000 is in my opinion just to small, with talk of reducing further to 72000 is just insane, even Greece out numbers us. I presume that regiments that are still represented with a battalion like the Black Watch for example could be returned to full strength if circumstances changed, I really do hope so. If ever we had to get involved in another long drawn out conflict, “God forbid” with the number of troops we have now, risk of burnout would be high I would have thought.
I was in the Grenadier Guards in the 70's 80's.. We used to swing our arms lower in Tunic.. and swagger a bit , but it gradually changed to shoulder high arms and the swagger went away.. big shame.. Drill now it seems has become less Snappy.. and in my opinion looks a bit scruffy..My first few troops were with 8 guards on parade.. i don't think we'll ever see that again..sadly
What did you think about when stood so still for hours on end?
Massed bands corps of drums pipes and drums household division used to be big
what is the music at 2:18 ?
Les Hugenots
Music at 1:30!?
Greensleeves
The present arms. . .Britain has since left the Commonwealth in that drill, being that the execution is now carried out with the LA8O.
A lot more disciplined and all white
what’s that supposed to mean Ian?
And ?

@@trondog8503 Thank you for the information, I meant that in 1964 homosexuality was illegal for everyone in Britain, not only to be in Armed Forces
