Well, 1st August was a sunday & if you follow the link from the film to the still photographs you get a couple of shots of the town centre. I don't think the deck was as crowded in your day!

It looks like it was the entire battalion and what we see in the film exert is exactly that...just some of the battalion that came past. I would guess that the people watching from the road at West End would be doing so because it was one of the better places to get a view.
