British and French troops took part in a landmark Changing of the Guard ceremony outside of London's Buckingham Palace, as well as the Élysée Palace in Paris, to mark the 120th anniversary of the Entente Cordiale on Monday.
The Entente Cordiale, dating back to 1904, put a stop to centuries of military rivalries between France and Britain to see the two European powers fight on the same side during two world wars.
In London, Britain's Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, Prince Edward and Sophie, inspected guardsmen from the British F Company Scots Guards as well as the French Gendarmerie’s Garde Républicaine while the Band of the Grenadier Guards performed.
In Paris, 16 members of Britain's Number 7 company Coldstream guards marched from the British consulate to the Élysée Palace on Faubourg St. Honore street where they were relieved by French Republican guards, as French President Emmanuel Macron watched alongside British ambassador to France, Menna Rawlings.
Both ceremonies, a first in each country, celebrate more than a century of diplomatic relations and are part of a series of planned events- including military land and air shows.

In YT you can find a video of " French Canadian Army " in a Change of Guard during 1940. Very refreshing to hear Quebecois french in Buckingham Palace.

I’m an Australian, proudly of English and French heritage, believe it or not (although I certainly favour my British side) and thought this was superb. They all damn well look like proper soldiers, as you’d anticipate and expect.

Hence why we had joint administration the Condominium of New Hebrides Nouvelle Hebrides since 1907 until independence of Vanuatu in 1980

Did the French Guards arrive at Waterloo Station ? Will they take a tour of Trafalgar Square ? Are they billeted at Wellington Barracks ? Do they want those bearskins back our lads borrowed off them in 1815 ?

BTW it was the Prussians who saved them from defeat from the French and the British were a very small portion of Wellington's army at Waterloo.
