This short documentary picture is an interesting record of British army training dramatized against an international background. An admirable eye for satirical effect has set the Aldershot Tattoo with its fireworks and costumes against the grim mechanized advance into Prague. The odd period caps and blazers and bicycles of Sandhurst, the incredible little bristly Crimean moustaches of cadet officers – these belong to the same fantastic world as the shots of Van de Lubbe, hunched and beaten and imbecile between his warders.
