@adipuppi police protect the public and the guards from the public, the gards protect the Queen

@adipuppi Well I think because Scotland Yard (London Metropolitan Police) must have elements to protect your majesty, are also in an urban area, it is my opinion

Thanks for posting.
Nobody does this better than the Brits!

@adipuppi You've never seen police at parades? For crowd control, traffic control, to deal with nuts and anyone else who might want to disrupt the proceedings, etc.

@robtbone British military bands commonly play marches from all over the world, the US included. But they also play German, Austrian, French, Russian and Italian marches - indeed from wherever in the world they choose. Sometimes the choice of a march will have a special meaning, though just as often not.
Why they chose a Sousa tune here on this occasion, I have no idea - chance, perhaps?

The music heard here, and played so perfectly by the Band of the Irish Guards, is the slow march BY LAND AND SEA by Kenneth Alford; and the quick march THE WASHINGTON POST by John Philip Sousa. Both composers are march kings of their era, the one British, the other American-born.

Love it. The band is playing the "The Washington Post March" by John Phillip Sousa (Captain, USMC) at the end.
