My late father was 2nd battalion Scots Guards. He stood outside Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle and Tower of London, I love the photos of him in his uniform and he served in Malaysia Singapore and Germany a d was sent out for suez crisis. I followed him into service in 1976 until 1991. It's a fantastic vocation. Xx

I totally agree. There should be a call for stricter rules and clear areas of where tourists are allowed to stand. They are almost climbing over each other to capture that 'perfect video/photo clip'. I think that some people forget that these soldiers are ON DUTY! Not a sideshow for them to take videos of.

Personally I'd prefer to be proud of having a working NHS, a respected police force, and a competent and capable military, none of which we have any longer.

As I've asked elsewhere, "why"? Why does 15 soldiers wearing ceremonial dress, however smartly, which it takes 350 soldiers to supply for only a few hours every day, make you "proud to be British"? I used to be "proud to be British" when I thought we had a working NHS that was the envy of others, a respected police force, an Army that was twice the size of the current one with way better recruiting, retention and morale, and a government that while I may not have agreed with I at least respected as trying to do what was best for the country, not themselves. Now I'm ashamed of what we have, and this doesn't do much to change that. So - "why"?
@John-G
@John-G 8 ай бұрын
@@2345bcde No what "shows the state of our country now" is that this is all we have to be proud of. Lacquer on doggy-doo, with an Army that quantifiably has the lowest recruiting, retention and morale it's ever had. How seriously sad can that be? If the money spent on making new uniforms for the King's Coronation Parade had instead been spent on supplying the troops in Afghanistan with improved body armour and better vehicles earlier, then far fewer would have come home in a body bag or with missing limbs, and the families of the dead wouldn't have had to sue the MoD for failing to protect and prepare them properly - how can that make you "proud to be British"?

The "boss" wasn't there, what he saw was a member of the Household Cavalry with a spur badge on his sleeve, generally worn above any rank insignia on the right hand sleeve. It denotes that he's a riding instructor (aka a rough rider) Now a defunct role, as such, but used as an appointment. The spur badge worn by rough riders and is also worn by riding instructors in The Kings Troop Royal Horse Artillery
@John-G
@John-G 9 ай бұрын
​​@@Wabbit_HuntaSorry, but apart from the badge that's nonsense. He's a Warrant Officer so his rank's very clearly shown by the very obvious, heavily embroidered epaulettes, similar to the officers'. There are other differences like the aiguillettes / shoulder cords (left shoulder for H Cav NCOs and WO's, right shoulder for officers), but you can't miss the epaulettes and the more shoulder cords, the higher the rank. Riding instructor isn't a "defunct" role at all, but a qualification like a sniper or PT instructor. I can't even guess where you got "rough riders" from - this isn't the US and that term hasn't been used for a long time.

It is "a show just for them". That's why it's called 'Public Duties' - its for the public.

@@chuckmaddison2924 I'm not suggesting they're "fluff" or not "a real military unit", simply explaining what the guard are doing as you said i) that you "don't understand what the guard is doing" and ii) that "it's not a show just for them" [tourists] . HCMR's role is "Public Duties and State Ceremonial" - that's their only role, as specifically laid down by the MoD and Army in "Future Soldier", part of the Strategic Defence Review, last updated in November 2021. It has no other role. None. What they're doing at Horseguards is called Public Duties, which are ceremonial (non operational) duties for the benefit of the public (State Ceremonial covers events like Trooping the Colour, the Coronation and State Funerals). IT IS "A SHOW JUST FOR THEM" - that's not just my view, but it's the official policy, which you can read for yourself as it's open source. As for "many try to get in", H Cav recruiting is on a par with the rest of the Army which currently has the worst recruiting, retention and morale it's ever had - not just my view, again, but confirmed by the official stats which are published in the Annual and Quarterly Personnel Reports, also open source. Last year recruiting dropped by 30%, year on year, and 50% more left than joined.

@@chuckmaddison2924 "Honestly"? Seriously? The Royal family are protected by SO14, the Royal Protection Group, part of the Metropolitan Police - nothing to do with the Army or the MoD Police (the armed police at Horseguards). The problem here is seldom a "stupid public" but the military failing to do it's job of directing the public. On a separate note, 'Yes,' many fail selection for SAS and SF but the number of Special Forces has close to doubled in the last few decades while the size of the Army has halved: one of the many, many reasons why morale, retention and recruiting are so bad. You shouldn't need to be Einstein to realise that if you take away more of the First XI to join SF, SFSG, and Rangers, etc, from a smaller Army, then the Second XI take over from the First XI and the Third XI who would never have got anywhere before take over from the Second XI so everybody else suffers, gets hacked off, and goes.

The officer conducting the inspection is the orderly officer or ‘officer of the day’. The soldier with the heavy braiding on his epaulets is the guard commander; a warrant officer. The continual reference to either of them as ‘Boss’ is bordering on the insulting and is to be deplored.

I would love to see an “Introduction to the Kings Guards” video that is linked in the description. I read the website but I have basic questions a lot. My current question is Are the Guards are assigned to a specific horse like Police/Military K9s?
@John-G
@John-G 8 ай бұрын
No, but there is some continuity. There are 350 soldiers in HCMR and 250 horses, but the main reason is that those on guard, mounted, in the two boxes on the pavement, are always Troopers (Privates) so if horses and soldiers were always 'paired' then those ridden by Troopers would be doing all the work, those ridden by NCOs would be doing nothing apart from being ridden in and out from Hyde Park barracks to Horseguards, and those ridden by WOs and Officers would be doing virtually nothing.

@carolinecouch4361 . The two regiments of The Household Cavalry are Lifeguards in red uniforms and Blues and Royals in blue uniforms . These are their ceremonial uniforms . During the year when they are on holiday ( yes they get holidays) their place is filled by The Kings Troop Royal Horse Artillery black uniforms with gold braid usually seen pulling the gun and cannons carriages used in ceremonies . An internet search for Household Cavalry and Kings Troop will tell you a lot about them .
