during my time in 2001 we start our route march really early in
the morning. it will stretch until about 3 pm, when we will change
and all that, and the parade commences in the evening, about 4-5.
no rest, or sleep or wat nots.
nowadaes with more emphasis on welfare, this may no longer be the
case. heard of cases where the route march and parade falls on
different days, or route march followed by extended break then the
parade.
