Retreat Parade
Retreat Parade was a military ritual that may have appeared out of place on the dusty frontier. Despite the grand appearance, Retreat was just another part of a soldier’s routine. The ceremony served a dual purpose—it was part of the ever-present discipline of the enlisted man, and it provided an opportunity for roll call and inspection.
