The next stage in foot drill is moving sideways a given number of paces. The reason this movement is taught is to enable an individual or body of personnel to move sideways a maximum number of five paces in a smart, uniform manner.

If I remember right, the cadets for all British forces have more "toned down" drill.
I'll have another look though, so good find!

As for the Vulcan, absolutely love it. Saw her at Eastbourne Airshow.

I've not been involved with cadets for twenty years, not held an AP for ten, and not drilled for eight. So I may be wrong.

LOL....a hot place occasionally visited (Port Said) whilst transiting the Suez Canal.

Sharm El Sheikh is on the buna holiday list for the future
