That's a pity as regards the drilling as I understand Baden Powell was opposed to scouts drilling through being a promoter of what he called 'Peace Scouting' of which was for the purpose of preventing war.
There is a difference between Drill all the time and doing Drill properly.
I had some Air Cadets on DoE placement and the scouts sliding their feet in to Alert, really upset them. I let them run a drill session for the kids, lasted about 5 minutes as I had to stop them since they were doing it wrong. We then did a proper session which the kids enjoyed - as a one off
