The comment about drill lessons is very unkind. I thought they marched very well bearing in mind that the Royal Navy don't get a lot of practice. There is not a lot of room to practice marching on ships. Speeking as an ex soldier, and therefore an expert, I thought the cadets marched well.

Being an ex serviceman myself and after watching the video clip i must agree with Sandy . "BRAVO ZULU "

Having watched the video I quite agree - they were the smartest of "the youth organisations" on parade that day. Maybe I'm too old fashioned.

I was marching on the day and thought they did very well...

They should be proud better than playing a brain numbing game on X box and hanging round streets.
