Has it always been worn by the RHA and I have just not noticed or is it something new?

Agree that it was a pleasant surprise to see this worn, All in all considering the smaller scaled down version of The Parade and change of location I thought that it went well and was well planned and executed by all involved. Did they mention or does anyone know the Unit of of the Officer wearing the blues style uniform and white helmet by the way. He was standing with the Foot Guards Officers to the right of the dias but I never saw a close up of his uniform or badges.
