One thing I have many memories of is Parading usually being there in an official capacity or other

You would expect an official parade to show all involved standing upright, very much to attention with uniform correctly worn which is much true of the Cadets and Brownies  here as it is the scouts.

I  would say my local cub scouts were more traditional during this era even if all the scouts were in longs being in their company at the time.
