Proud cadet Thomas in Year 8 has just returned from London after visiting the city to parade Sounding the Retreat at Horse Guards last week.
Thomas plays the bugle for Band and Bugles of the Durham Army Cadets Force who were invited to march at the exciting event near Buckingham Palace. He took part in two performances, each lasting about one and a half hours and watched by over 200,000 people and a further one million on YouTube.
What an incredible experience - well done Thomas! Take a look at the full video here.
