King Charles III celebrated his 78th birthday with the annual Trooping the Colour parade in London. The event, a display of military precision and royal tradition, saw members of the Royal Family joining the monarch. This year’s parade included over 1,400 soldiers, 400 musicians, and a flypast by the Royal Air Force. Catherine, Princess of Wales, made a public appearance, having recently announced her ongoing cancer treatment. The parade route was lined with crowds of spectators eager to witness the spectacle and honour the King. The ceremony traditionally combines a military parade with a display of flags – or ‘colours’ – of the regiments of the Household Division.
