Members of 43 Commando RM parade before the Commando Memorial. The red sashes worn by the SNCOs are traditional dating back to the time when these were used to support stretchers carrying injured men off the Battle Field with the colour representing their blood. These are only worn by SNCOs of Infantry Regiments.
