Image: The Coldstream Guards Troop Their Colour MOD 45165212

Description: Pictured are Soldiers of the Mass Bands and Household division marching in front of and behind HM Queen Elizabeth returning back to Buckingham Palace. All the Royal Colonels accompanied Her Majesty on the parade, with The Prince of Wales, The Duke of Cambridge and The Princess Royal riding on horseback; The Duke of York also rode for the first time in his new capacity as the Colonel of the Grenadier Guards. These operational soldiers, for many of whom this was their first Queen’s Birthday Parade, are fresh from recent exercises in Dartmoor. They are famed across the world for their immaculate turnout and ceremonial prowess, but as a dual-role battalion they are equally busy with operational training and duties.
