    Parade Site is Sennelager, Westphalen a British Training Area just North of Paderborn.

    Parade Ground is a cobbled road and asphalt landing strip just North of the grassed bank on which sits the Winning Mühle, used after 1949 for similar large parades in 1951, 1965, 1977 (Queen's Silver Jubilee).
