    A little Nugget of Information for those interested, the RAF March Past has words to sing along to. They are as follows, to be sung from the Trio at 24:31.
    Through adversities we'll conquer.
    Blaze into the Stars,
    A trail of glory
    We'll live on land and sea
    'Till victory is won.
    Men in blue the skies are winging.
    In each heart one thought is ringing.
    Fight for the right,
    God is our might,
    We shall be free.

    RAF standing in while the guards regiments are rehearsing for HM The Kings Birthday parade (Trooping The Colour).
    Certainly the RAF Regiment, not sure if they’re the Queens Colour Squadron, they always appear to be more squared away & sharper & of equal size & stature, a lot of fidgeting & movement by individuals while the inspection was taking place, if I’m wrong, if that’s
    the case then, another standard lowered.
    And yes, I have a good idea of what I’m talking about, I spent 24yrs in the army & attended the All Arms Advanced Drill Instructors Course.
    Coincidentally the first course to be ran using the new weapon.

      The official Schedule listed them as King’s Colour Squadron Royal Air Force! And most day's its accurate however as you say your not just any old tourist lol so you might be correct. (Thank you greatly for your service aswell!)

    Accompanying members of the King's Colour Squadron in this rather elaborate changing the guard march up from Wellington Barracks (29:21) were nine colour parties carrying the squadron standards of the Royal Auxiliary Air Force (i.e. the RAF's reserve organization). Leading the way was the RAuxAF's sovereign's colour; this was the first time it had been paraded at Buckingham Palace. The ceremonial event marked the centenary of RAuxAF's service to the RAF. In the palace forecourt HRH the Duke of Gloucester, the RAuxAF's Honorary Air Commodore-in-Chief was present for the parade and the RAuxAF's new military march, named for its motto, Comitamur ad Astra (We go with them to the stars) was given its premiere by the band. Their director of music, Squadron Leader Ted Sellers, wrote the composition, which was commissioned by the RAuxAF Foundation. The following squadrons had their standards on parade: 502 (Ulster). 600 (City of London); 601 (County of London); 602 (City of Glasgow); 605 (County of Warwickshire); 2503 (City of Lincoln); 2620 (County of Norfolk); 2622 (Highland) and 2623 (East Anglian). All this comes from an RAF news release/story I looked up for some context. I relay the salient bits here for others who may be interested.

      @@josephturner7569 Haha You should write to the parade organizers and demand answers! 😀I checked the RAF account to make sure I didn't miss your squadron standard in the list on parade but sadly it wasn't there. The "Chiltern Chicken" 😀- a formidable red kite with talons gripping a lightening bolt!- would have made a fine addition. Despite the oversight, it looked to be a great parade and I noticed in other videos they received waves of applause from the crowds on the Mall. A lovely event for an essential RAF support group that is probably seldom acknowledged by the public.
