Last weekend on the date of the actual Trooping in London, I set up a toy soldier display of the Trooping of the Colour in the Commons Room at the Cathedral of Learning, University of Pittsburgh. This event was sponsored by Britsburgh (https://britsburgh.com/) and the English Nationality Room.
This link- link shows pictures from the event.
The display was 12' long and include over 700 figures. There also was a photo op with a cut out of the Queen as she looked over the display. Dave |

Very nice. I hope you don't mind that I shared this on the A Gentleman's War facebook page to the delight of many of the members. |

Thanks to everyone for their comments! The display was very well received by the public. Lots of selfies with HM and her troops. Thanks for sharing the link on A Gentleman's War Facebook page! |
