1. parade

   The phrase battle array or array of battle is archaic and poetic; we now say in line or order of battle. The parade is for exhibition and oversight, and partial rehearsal of military manual and maneuvers. Array refers to a continuous arrangement of men, so that all may be seen or reviewed at once. This is practically impossible with the vast armies of our day. We say rather the disposition of troops, which expresses their location so as to sustain and support, though unable to see or readily communicate with each other. Compare DRESS.

   Synonyms:
   army, arrangement, array, battle array, collection, disposition, exhibition, line of battle, order, order of battle, show, sight

1. Bill Mott:

   In all the years I did the Queen's Birthday Parade, it was Her Majesty the Queen there. To not have Her Majesty arriving was poignant and the fact that she went out onto the balcony was lovely, i thought in my heart, how many more times am I going to see Her Majesty like that? It was quite sad for a lot of reasons. I know the Platinum Jubilee is meant to be a wonderful occasion and something to mark 70 years, but it was tinged with sadness for me.

2. Jonathan Turley:

   There will be particular attention to whether there were gaps between barriers and any police cruiser.This vehicle appeared to get through the barrier at a high enough speed to then evade following officers. It also appears completely functional after forcing its way through to the parade route. That raises concerns over the placement of the barriers.

3. Andrew Ansbro:

   We think prayers for his recovery, and a memoriam for those lost, is more appropriate than a parade at this time.
