When I was in the 3rd RCHA, during the mid to late 1960’s soldiers had to attend “Pay Parade” in order to receive their pay. Each individual would march up one at a time and the officer would count out the cash to every soldier.
At that time, our wages were nowhere near as much as the average soldier receives today and I was just wondering if soldiers have to do the same thing these days. It just seems risky to carry that much cash around currently after going on Pay Parade.
