    14:43 Grenadier Soldier (Big Boss) wearing eight medals on his chest and a bearskin coming out of the Horse Guards and crossing the Whitehall Avenue. (A Bearskin is a tall fur cap derived from miter caps worn by grenadier units in the 17th and 18th centuries.

    38:41 The Grenadier Soldier (Big Boss) is back in the Horse Guards.
    47:47 The rehearsals for Trooping of the Colour in the Horse Guards Parade.
    56:28 They are so CUTE! They are loving the King's Guard and King's Horse.
    1:01:35 One of them will probably be a royal guard.
    1:02:37 The horse is agitated in its box.
    Date filmed: Today 16 May 2024
    WHO ARE THEY?
    Formed in 1969, the regiment emerged from the merger of the Royal Horse Guards ("the Blues") and the Royal Dragoons ("the Royals"), units with roots in the mid-17th century. Serving globally, it had roles in Northern Ireland, the Cold War in West Germany, the Falklands War, UN missions in Bosnia, and conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. It was part of key defense strategies and reconnaissance missions. Notably, Prince William and Prince Harry joined as cornets in 2006.
    HOW LONG DO THE ROYAL GUARDS AND ROYAL HORSES WORK?
    After the officer checks them at 4:00 p.m., everyone, whether they're on horseback or not, will be done for the day. Two guards on horses watch the entrance to Horse Guards on Whitehall from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. They switch out every hour.
    WHY THEY SLAP THE HORSE?
    The purpose of guards slapping their horses when dismounting is to ensure the horse is prepared for the change in weight distribution as the guard descends from the horse.
    The first one on the neck is essential to tell the horse, "good job." The second slap is to inform the horse that there is an excessive displacement of weight on one side at dismount.

    HORSES ON HOLIDAY IN THE UK
    Following the conclusion of the Summer Ceremonial Season, these diligent military horses are respectfully sent to the LEICESTERSHIRE countryside for a well-deserved period of rest and recuperation. One may observe them taking a break on the beaches of Holkham in Norfolk, where they are free to enjoy themselves.
    During their six-week vacation, the horses are free to roam the verdant fields, inhale the invigorating country air, and revel in the delight of mud baths. At the break of dawn, they are escorted to the square at Hyde Park Barracks, where horse-drawn carriages await to transport them beyond the city limits. Their meticulously trimmed coats are allowed to grow naturally, and their metal shoes are removed. It is a joyous occasion for these majestic creatures!
    According to the military, working horses were set free for holiday frolics. | The British Army (mod.uk) link for more info: www.army.mod.uk/news-and-events/news/2023/08/military-working-horses-set-free-for-holiday-frolics/

    According to Regimental Headquarters, the confirmed date for the King’s Birthday Parade (Trooping the Colour) is Saturday, 15 June 2024.
    The annual event known as Trooping the Colour has served as a commemoration of the reigning monarch's official birthday for two and a half centuries. In accordance with this tradition, His Majesty King Charles III, born on November 14, 1948, will observe his birthday on two occasions: once on his actual birth date and subsequently during the public Trooping the Colour ceremony in June.
    His Majesty King Charles III holds the distinguished position of Colonel-in-Chief of the Regiments of the Household Division. Each Regiment is led by a Colonel, who is either a respected member of the Royal Family or a highly experienced senior officer.
    The parade has traditionally showcased over 1,400 marching soldiers, 200 horses, and 400 musicians. Commencing at Buckingham Palace, the Parade proceeds along The Mall to Horse Guards Parade, where it is joined by esteemed members of the Royal Family on horseback and in carriages. The Parade concludes with the customary Royal Air Force fly-past, observed by the Monarch and esteemed members of the Royal Family from the Buckingham Palace balcony.
    #KingCharlesIIIbirthday "May the King live long." ❤ 🇬🇧

    Congrats for the amazing footage of the rehearsals, you were among the few to brave the nasty weather!!🤩It was that type of thin and drippy rain that is very annoying. I've seen the televised parade several times but it's the first time in my life that i see the rehearsals😀🤩 I've read online that Trooping of the Colour will consist of the 3 days of parades but they divided them in 3 consecutive Saturdays this year: Major General's Review of the troops on Saturday, June 1st; Colonel's Review of the troops on Saturday, June 8th and King Charles's Birthday parade on June the 15th as you pointed out in your comments above. They are fairly similar in structure, give or take some troops/regiments, but The King's parade is the most complete. So 3 weekends in June will be all about parades! Thank you so much for the additional info you posted in the comments, it is very useful!💯💯💯 Speaking of the horses in the boxes, it's fair to mention that Ormonde was in the left box, before the 11.00 o'clock change😉 He really did behave himself this time(but there weren't that many tourists either). So the Blues did switch with the LifeGuards after all, but i wonder when the Regiments changed (either Wednesday afternoon or Thursday early morning). It will be interesting to see if they stay just for one day and switch tomorrow morning again with the Life Guards, or if they stay for several days. If the Life Guards come back tomorrow as per the usual schedule, they would have to stay for another 3 days (the whole weekend), which would make a total of 6 days of guard this week for them!

    At 3.40 it looks like the massed bands of the British Army Household Division, but in their 'number 2 uniform'. They will wear their main uniform, with the bearskins in the final rehearsal before trooping.

    When is the king’s official birthday?
    This year, the King's official birthday celebration will be held on the 15th of June. As is customary for British monarchs, King Charles has two birthdays: an official birthday and his actual birthday, which falls on the 14th of November.
    Why does King Charles have two birthdays?
    Indeed, the unpredictable nature of Britain's weather plays a significant role in determining the date of the King or Queen's birthday celebrations. Traditionally held outdoors, it would be unfortunate for their special day to be marred by unexpected rainfall. Therefore, the official birthday is usually scheduled during May or June, months with a higher likelihood of favorable weather conditions.
    What will happen on the king’s official birthday?
    Unlike the king's actual birthday, which will be a private occasion, the king's official birthday will be celebrated with great pomp and grandeur. Each year, a ceremonial event known as Trooping the Colour takes place. In this magnificent parade, the king proceeds from Buckingham Palace to Horse Guards Parade, accompanied by a royal procession consisting of hundreds of soldiers, horses, and musicians. Numerous spectators travel to London to witness the event in person, but it is also customarily televised.
    The king's birthday ceremonies also encompass a 41-gun salute, a flyover by the Royal Air Force, and a special appearance by the king and his family on the balcony of Buckingham Palace.
    The king's official birthday is also commemorated in various Commonwealth countries, including Canada, Australia, and Papua New Guinea.
