Sea Cadets and Royal Marines Cadets marched on to Trafalgar Square today (Sunday 21 Oct) to celebrate national Trafalgar Day with platoons of 500 cadets from all over the UK, and the Massed Band of the Sea Cadets. A strong crowd of spectators joined in, waving Sea Cadet flags as they enjoyed the incredible display performed by these young people to Royal Naval dignitaries.
This impressive free show marched from The Mall to Trafalgar Square in remembrance of Admiral Lord Nelson's historic victory at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. This is the 207th anniversary.
Sea Cadets have been taking part in this National event for over 100 years and it is a chance for them to show off their incredible skill, talent and discipline for parading.
