I used to drive trains through North Camp. You could always identify Ghurkas. Even in civvies they are in uniform.

Ghurkas just the Name makes a man shiver. Some Very Very Skilled Individuals Honed into a Death Machine.

Blimey they took there time to move off, i felt very sorry for the Gurkhas and the Rifles Band standing there in ranks in the heat of the sun in those uniforms that make them sweat and get dehydrated. If they are not going to move off for ages probably waiting for some prat officer from Sandhurst to arrive in his place, then the soldiers should be back in a air conditioned room until the officer is ready to move off. Those uniforms are very heavy and not really suitable for hot weather. I saw a video that was done exactly on a very hot day in Scotland where the Scottish regiment was doing the exact same thing but in more summer time uniform where the Regiment marched in short sleve shirts and there kilt. The soldiers were not wearing any coat or jacket on that hot day. 💂♂️💂♂️🇬🇧🇬🇧🏴🏴🤝🤝🏴🏴

I've worn wool on parade in Canada. The standing motionless in the sun is exhausting. Only 14 % of us were female.

It's true that the most dangerous thing known to a soldier is an officer with a map. If you want to get it wrong involve an officer, if you really want to screw it up involve a politician

Same for the guards outside the palace and lining the street, many were overcome by the heat standing out for so long in full uniform including bearskin hats…. The one thing the Ghukas have is they come from a very hot climate, so when in their home country they are used to parading in the heat.

Those are not thick wool uniforms and fine wool cloth is less hot than any synthetic, Cotton , or silk. Only linen is cooler.
