Congratulations to all these wonderful young men and women! Although I am not British I have the highest respect and gratitude for the "Forces" for the sacrifices they made through two World Wars and many other wars...unfortunately, humanity does not know how to live in peace and these brave persons pay the price...God Bless them always! 🙏🏼❤️

In Colonial Empire, a soldier operate like a business professionals

[@Jeffybonbon]

its a fact the Majority of the 220 will be out of the army in around 5 years and will leave as Captains the rest will be passed over majors and a few will reach Lt Col or above

[@fordpopular8792]

In my day in the fifties, Captains who were passed over, left to make way for up and coming.

[@Jeffybonbon]

@@fordpopular8792 There are only three officers in a Battalion who are earmarked for better places The Lt Co Adjutant and Training Major the rest will stay as Capt and Majors passed over most will not see Staff Collage which is a must to go to full Col Its the same in the senior ranks 99% will not see RSM just a lower plot in the same army

The UK chief of staff last week demonstrated one of the biggest requirements required to be a leader of rank or file and that is to have the ability to command the respect from your subordinates, however for voicing his opinion about the use of the armed forces as a government labour force during national strikes has had a rebuke from a has been white shirt MP called Jacob Rees-Mogg who said "I'm a bit worried about senior military figures sounding off on their opinions. "I think the job of the military is there to do what they're told by the civilian authorities, it's not for the military to be expressing their views., sure ! but its the defence chiefs job to make sure that the countries defensive capability isn't compromised to include the morale of the countries armed forces and importantly anything that effects the recruitment of the armed forces where their is presently a serious problem , imagine the recruitment slogan, join the Army and ....drive an ambulance , work at an airport , empty the bins , drive a petrol tanker and fight fires etc etc, one can appreciate serious vital services , but presently the armed forces are viewed as a tool to address the unions , when it should be legislation of law to protect vital services in the UK !

[@minui8758]

Exactly. It’s seeking a military solution to a civic problem. And since Forces are for King and Country that includes the Unions and the striking workers every bit as much as it includes civilian democratic government

Who are the personnel with rifles and why didn't they march into the building?

[@matthewbaynham6286]

They have ER on the badge on the front of their hats. Shouldn't those hats be updated with the change in the royal family.

[@jimmysavile69]

it will be a decent while before it is changed. these things aren't cheap at the extent of things they'd have to replace.

[@traildogisla]

No, they started service under the queen so will serve with that.

[@mobile8873]

HM need not be there for the ceremony?

[@kingkauri5900]

He was represented by HRH Prince Richard the Duke of Glouster( cousin of the late Queen). Being a grandchild of KIng George V he is part of the royal family and he still works even though he is over 80.

[@vanpallandt5799]

Passing out parade?..Americans seem to think its a typo but thats the term..though not sure if thats the phrase used for Sandhurst

[@traildogisla]

It is used

[@Joe-rp8xn]

He couldn't come in person could he?

[@schattensand]

Skirts look so weird on a soldier, if it is not a kilt.

[@annatyreman794]

Royal and honour are not words that should be used when refering to sexual abusers, may they all be brought to justice

[@kingkauri5900]

HRH Prince Richard is a very good man. you are very wrong if you think he is guilty of such allegations.

[@matthewbaynham6286]

We need a bigger and more powerful NATO, I'm glad that Finland and Sweden are joining. NATO is key to having peace in this part of the world. Especially with crazy nut jobs like Putin doing his war crimes in Ukraine.

[@MatthewMakesAU]

You missed a comma. No, NATO = no war. Ukraine should be a member, then she'd be safe.
