Edward of Wales plunged himself into a black bearskin beehive, waved goodbye to his father who watched from a palace window in a grey sack suit and panama hat, and took the salute at the traditional Trooping the Color on the King's birthday. All in scarlet & blue the Brigade of Guards marched stiffly past, Coldstreams, Grenadiers, Scots, Irish and Welsh.
