Do non-American militaries do marching cadences?
Just wondering.
I would think other Anglo nations would like UK, AUS, CAN, etc.

The British Army and most other Commonwealth nations use British-style drill, marching and cadences. It's a totally different system.
While the US Military cadences can feature singing, rhythm, words and the troops being marched barking back uniform responses, we only have one single cadence:
"Left, right, left, right, left, right, left." It's barked only by the duty soldier, NCO or Officer marching everyone up. It is echoed by nobody and only barked at the start and when someone can't keep in step. On formal parades and marches in public, we don't even use the cadence at all.

Yes. I was in the US marines for 6 years and visited about 13 other countries. I saw militaries from Indonesia, India, Bahrain, Australia, Iraq, and Singapore. They use marching cadences but they are obviously in different languages.
