Queen Elizabeth marks 95th official birthday with military ceremony

The Queen has received her official birthday gift from the nation's armed forces in a ceremony of pomp and pageantry in her honor at Windsor Castle. The Duke of Kent, the Queen's cousin, joined her on a dais in the castle's quadrangle in his role as Colonel of the Scots Guards. From her dais, the Queen tapped her foot along as she watched the ceremony unfold with Guardsmen in their scarlet tunics and bearskins and the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment in their breastplates and plumed helmets. The birthday parade is a gift from the Household Division - the Army's most prestigious regiments - which has a close affinity with the monarch and is keen to show its loyalty to the Crown.
