This was the main music for the march out parades as known in those days as 1RTB. Second march not sure now but can reseach and get back to you. Pity the band may be going in a few years and being swapped by pipes and drums for march out parades. A sad end to the Australian Army bands when the changes take effective in the next 5 years.
I was in the Kapooka Army Band during this march out parade some 24 years ago. I had a great time at Kapooka and lost count to the amount of March Out Parades I did. It brings back so many great memories. Thanks
I think the first part of the march is a German miltary march, not sure about the second bit though.

That's sad news about the band going. The band should put a CD out.

@tonyspringbok Tony, what are the names of the two marches in the clip and do they have any historical significance with 1 RTB?

Thanks for posting this. Hearing the old quick march tunes takes me back to my march out in 1979

Ahh the good old days of battle dress uniform, spit polished GPs and SLRs. Brings a tear to an old soldiers eye.
