The King’s Birthday Parade is always a splendid occasion. Yesterday was made even more special through the company of senior NATO colleagues, including the Chairman of the Military Committee and the Supreme Allied Commander, as we mark 75th years of our extraordinary Alliance.

A splendid day full of splendour. Proud to witness Trooping the Colour together with UK MOD, UK CHOD, SACEUR, DSACEUR & C-JFCNapels. Allies will stand side by side, whatever the weather! 🇬🇧☔️
