Drill units in the Canadian Army include the Ceremonial Guard and the 2nd Battalion, Royal 22e Régiment in the Primary Reserve and the Regular Force respectively. The Royal Military College of Canada also maintains a 24-member drill team. The RCMP Musical Ride is the only mounted drill team of its kind in the world.

The Hellenic Navy has a precision movement unit called Άγημα Κινήσεων Ακριβείας (Agima Kiniseon Akriveias). It is made up of conscripts and also takes part in the "Μεικτός Λόχος Απόδοσης Τιμών" (Meiktos Lohos Apodosis Timon/Mixed Guard of Honour), a tri-service guard of honour composed of servicemen from the Hellenic Army, the Hellenic Navy, and the Hellenic Air Force is maintained as part of the Ministry of National Defence.

The Armed Forces of Malta Drill Team and the Malta Police Precision Drill Team serve as the only military drill units in the Republic of Malta. The platoon-sized AFM Drill Team has performed synchronized drill since its revival in August 2014, and is based on the British and Canadian procedures for military drill and exhibition drill. The Malta Police Precision Drill Team, on the other hand, has been performing drill for more than 25 years prior to the establishment of the AFM team. Unlike the AFM team, who carry the FN FAL on parade, the police team carries a Short Magazine Lee–Enfield Mk VI. The platoon consists of 21 policemen, who are selected from the various sections of the Malta Police. Their main appearances include the Malta Military Tattoo and the Republic Day on St. George's Square.
