Why does the Junior RSM drop his tone on the executive word of command? It should be a short, sharp higher-pitched delivery- not as he has done.

Why did the officers march on with the soldiers and the RSM is in charge of the parade. In my day the Sqns / Coys were marched by the SSM's and the RSM dresses the parade. He then handed over to the CO and he then gave the command for officers to take posts.

The RSM is in step he's just using his other arm as it is holding his pacing stick. and you mean Warrant officer not junior RSM there's no such rank as that. But, I cannot disagree that standards and Ethos are slipping thanks to a rise in socialist/communistic Rhetoric this country's Veterans are heavily bleeding from the shame of it.
@licec12342 күн бұрын
yes there is such a rank. In boys service or as this where one of the cadets is doing RSM job known as Junior RSM or somthing similar depending on unit. He is out of step that’s clear. His drill is poor but that’s not his fault. I respect all of them. Standards have dropped

Everyone says their time was better /harder but I've got to agree the drill was sharper in the 80s. Even the Guards don't look the same. I watched the "Royal Regiment of Scotland " at Edinburgh Castle a few years back & it was rubbish compared to what I saw in '88 when I was at the castle with the RA firing a salute. The Gordon Highlanders were at the castle & were immaculate. The guys I saw later were not anything like the Gordon's 😮
