Cavalry Sunday household Cavalry vetrans March in in Hyde Park

An annual march past by former and serving members of many cavalry regiments, followed by a short service to commemorate those who were killed on active service.
For this, the Regiment provides the two regimental bands (augmented by musicians from other regiments taking part), 4 State Trumpeters, and a marching party formed of 1 Officer and 12 men from each of The Life Guards and The Blues and Royals.
Occasionally the salute is taken by a member of the Royal Family, or visiting royalty.
Something that can be observed from a suitable distance.
Serving and retired members of thek Regiment start to gather from 10:00 on the Broad Walk (East) just inside the park, parallel to Park Lane - with the march taking place at 11am.#thekingsguard #london ondon #horse #horseguardsparade #hydepark

That was so enjoyable to watch. Long procession of very smart soldiers and veterans. I loved the comment from someone `'no talking in the ranks`'. That gave some of them a bit of a laugh. Thank you Buska.

[@margaretbinnie6600]

Just fabulous. Bless them all and a huge thank you for the service. ❤️

The cute horse had medals ! Lovely mascot for the 1st The Queens Dragoon Guards.

[@patrickbarrett5650]

Well, that couldn’t have been more British if it tried.👏🏻

[@sheilamorrell6329]

Chelsea Pensioner! Once again great work bringing us a truly British tradition, an import one.

[@jbdeakle]

Fantastic! Tradition is so important it’s wonderful to see it still being upheld! Sadly it’s falling by the wayside here in the USA, more and more the ceremonies and celebrations are no longer happening because the older generations are passing on. Young people today find no meaning in traditions like these and lately they’re determined to destroy anything remotely patriotic. At least I can watch yours and be proud!😻❤️

[@MaryWalker-lt9ng]

"No talking in the Ranks" brilliant. Nothing like some British Pomp and Circumstance. A few Chelsea Pensioners too. Superb Buska, thank you.

[@janetbarkwith]

Super! I particularly loved the rolled umbrellas!

[@judithbutler7343]

I love all these traditions.

[@elizabethshillito5]

They all look so proud to of served our country ,I bet a lot are appalled at what it has become now

[@stormyweather2531]

Thank you. Great to see

[@user-fi9ss4ny9q]

Spot the famous faces of horseguards! Easier with Blues and Royals too. Some ex-H/CAV I notice too. Thanks Buska for this fantastic clip.

[@wolf-ruedigerbeier]

don't let my name get you , born and live in london but I have never seen this before .

[@stuartmccall5474]

I think you will find this is an annual event.

[@user-sz6nb1vk6q]

That’s one hell of a turnout, respect to you all

[@caroldocherty6810]

Nice one Buska

[@user-fi9ss4ny9q]

Hah the dropped keys! Could have had them all tumbled down as they tried to keep moving!

[@user-fi9ss4ny9q]

Apologies...spur.

[@z33511]

Are British veterans issued bowler hats upon separation?

[@steveellis9065]

Only officers wear bowler hats, other ranks are permitted to wear regimental berets or no headdress

[@YARROWS9]

The Scots Guards paraded last month, with no hats of any kind. Officers and other ranks were the same. No class distinction observed.

[@steveellis9065]

@@YARROWS9 that is the tradition of the Scots Guards

[@YARROWS9]

@@steveellis9065 Yes. Everyone's the same.

[@Tykewarrior]

Serving and retired officers wear ‘city kit’ ie lounge suit, bowler and furled umbrella. Other ranks still serving wear lounge suits, no headdress and veteran other ranks *may* wear regimental beret but this is generally seen on the older vets and is rarely seen in any vet below 60 years old. Also a smattering of side hats.

[@danielwilliams1932]

Where are all the trouble makers?? Where are all the England British flags???

[@witkrag4953]

Buska Why did my acceptable and accurate posting fail. It focussed on the need to render material help to veterans including those who had been injured on active service. Anyway I have other avenues to visit.Includes Persons of the Royal British Legion. Bet you won' t respond to me 👎

[@Tykewarrior]

Great video. Female officers - tie your hair up and remove the bowlers. You look silly.
