He really looks like soldier material. Very disciplined and sharp looking.

What photos of his sailing do you mean?

From what I gathered from some of the stories I keeping reading and it kept mentioning William and witnessing this that he may have had a part in reporting back to the brass.

It's great to have a frame of reference to what the fellows are doing in training. Since we spent so much time polishing our boots, any kind of 'kicking or throwing or grinding' anything on a beautifully shined boot was offensive could really make one angry.

Looking at the shine of William's & Harry's boots and shoes, they seemed to have spent a lot of time on theirs as well.

Thanks. I went out there and they were the same ones I saw back then. I thought he had gone out on a new sailing project.

Indeed they were. William was impeccable and well disciplined in his marching. A well oiled machine they all were. Papa must be proud.

Isn't he on his adventurous training expedition, perhaps they havn't gone yet?

Poor little thing, when he gets back from that he will have to start applying to whichever regiment he wants to get into. If anyone wants to turn him down, at least it will be done discreetly!

Do you think someone should tell 'Hello' that William and all the recruits are carrying SA80's?

You have sharp eye!
Though personally I wouldn't notice the difference between SA80 and AR80 even if someone tried very hard to explain, I am no great shakes with guns (obviously), though, funny enough, I shoot pretty well (we had defense classes at school, where they taught us to shoot, I usually got 4 of 5 at the very least).
