What pacing per min does the British army march at?
Depending on the Regiment quick time varies between 80, 112, 120, 140, 160 & 180 paces to the minute as double quick time, slow march also varies by Regiment from 40, & 60, paces. Scottish regiments at the slower speed, Light Infantry at the higher. These are precise timings as are all British Military movements. However the Band accompanying the Regiment play a Cadence Tempo between 112 to 144 beats to allow the particular piece to be played during quick time, therefore marching with a Band is not at the regulation pace speed nor at the regulation space of 30in for Males & 27in for females, likewise nowadays Females march alongside Males so compensation is required. Thankfully I am no longer a Drill pig, as drill phraseology is precise, how would I teach a mixed number of Recruits with some at 27in & others at 30in paces.
