I didn't expect a British band to play a German march "Alte Kameraden" or "Old Comrades". Well done.

Thank you for sharing this wonderful segment of the RAF being represented, I miss all these events since living ‘down under’ good to hear Alte Kameraden (Old Comrades) one of my favourites when I played clarinet in odd bands. Greetings from Tasmania Australia 🎼👍😁🇦🇺🦘 I have tried playing and marching in a concert band, not easy believe me.

Thank you for another good recording. Does anyone know why this particular Drum Major does the drag step and 4 paces at mark time after every wheel to the right or left? I have never seen this in other marching bands but the Scottish Pipe Band Drum Majors do the drag step, to good visual effect, before a countermarch. Properly timed and executed, as here , it looks good.

Having had a DoM who came from RAF the mark time for the DM and DoM is done to keep the correct distance between band and DM + DoM, no stepping short necessary.

@@TheDrummie1 Thank you for taking the trouble to respond. It's clear from watching the video that the front rank has to step short after completing the 'wheel' in order to avoid colliding with the DoM.The band ranks close up before stepping forward normally. No other UK bands do this but I have noticed something similar with the 'Oompah' Street marching Bands in Austria and available on You Tube. Regards
