Alpha company national drill display team, Trafalgar 2008

Alpha company royal marine cadet drill display team performing an sa80 drill display on Trafalgar day in Trafalgar square. music in order: the saints, world in union, royal Britannia, life over the ocean wave.
26/10/20008
drill instructor for the display was colour sergeant cooper.
sorry about my dads lack of camera skills.
this display took weeks to learn and perfect. we literally put blood, sweat and well, maybe not tears into this but hey! :)
was an awesome day, we did well boys!
I'm proud to represent the corp in all its glory and I'm sure my fellow cadets are too.
thanks.
please rate the video and leave appropriate comments.

Are the marine cadets' a cadet version of the Royal Marine Commandos' and do they wear those uniforms on a normal week?

[joew666]

@MaxReid97 The marine cadets are the cadet version of the royal marines, the uniform we are wearing there is called blues (no1's), its the smartest uniorm. during the week at cadets we'd be wearing combat 95's (camouflage clothes)
