Right of the line
[edit]The article states that when the troop is on parade with its guns "it will replace the Household Cavalry at the extreme right of the line". This statement was properly cited. Larmas has added a qualification "and no regiment of the Household Cavalry has its colours on parade". The previous wording (i.e. without the qualification), which was supported by a "Daily Mail" citation and a "British Army units 1945 on" citation, really should remain until we can find a citation that supports Larmas's qualification. I will revert in the next few days unless a specific citation can be found to support the qualification (which I have never seen before). Thanks.

The Troop
[edit]I'm not sure that this (removed from the article) is trivia. What do others think?
- A 35mm CinemaScope film, The Troop, was filmed in Windsor Great Park and at 'The Wood' barracks. The film had a royal premiere before the Princess Royal at BAFTA in September 1999.[1] The Glory Film Co. production was produced by Marcus Dillistone and Paul-Anthony Viollet (A former Troop Officer), and directed by Marcus Dillistone with an introduction spoken by Sir John Mills. Music was composed by Julian Scott and performed by The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.[2]
