Hahahaha! I just saw this, I thought it was kind of funny...a stray dog just zooms through the video!

I thought it was very impressive, but I honestly have to admit all I know about military precision from about the WWII era back is from Hollywood and occasional still pictures.

I wonder if the Hollywood people made it more precise in large groups than it really was.

I was fascinated watching it. Thanks for posting it.

It’s almost startling to be able to see that - to see something ‘in action’ so far in the past. Thank you for posting.

I doubt there’s a photo of Victoria with her grandfather, George III.
