Her Majesty clearly enjoyed herself and, following the performance, spent time chatting to cadets and asking them questions.

HM the Queen enjoys a performance of Beating the Retreat
In August, a group of talented Army and Air Cadet pipers and drummers drawn from across the United Kingdom, had the honour of performing the Beating of the Retreat for HM The Queen at Balmoral.


Speaking after the performance Brigadier Mark Dodson, Chief Executive of Highland RFCA, said “The cadets put on an amazing performance which Her Majesty thoroughly enjoyed. I’d like to extend my thanks to the performers and also to the CFAVs who trained and supported them.”
