Following the march past, the parade was once again dressed, and the CO then ordered the traditional advance in review order terminating with a Royal Salute. At this time His Excellency departed the parade to do a short press conference as to why he came uniquely for this occasion. In the meantime, the CO ordered a General Salutes for each of the departing dignitaries.

After the Standard was marched off parade and returned  to the Officers Mess, the parade was then turned over to the DCO Capt Lavallee, by the CO, Major Saucier. Then in quick succession  the officers fell  out, and the parade was handed back to me. In turned I handed command over  WO Réjean Leclair.

Or so the story goes, but then you had to be there to know what really happened in those final minutes.
