Well said Kevin, and my Amen to all you say....

This was his world. So happy that he was able to be present for this last grand Tattoo!

Prince Philip was an expert at standing around, and pointing at things.

@@ataxpayer723 Combat veterans did more than stand around and point at things. They also earned the right to do so if they please.

Beautiful 🇬🇧🇨🇦

Thanks to your parents.

@John Bull that’s interesting, I’d be interested in finding out why that was, and why we changed. I’m glad we do now though, this was such a fantastic video.

Probably because we've had centuries of practice

@Untold dutch!

Ye, but for how long will it last before we're taken over and out culture gone? Woke has now even filtered into the officership of the armed forces. The country is doomed.

Mike C. A ROYAL AIR FORCE Officer, I WAS PROUD TO BE IN THE audience, sitting next to my retired ROYAL Marine father. Fantastic Parade.

My father was also an ex royal marine for 22yrs I was also and ex Raf Rockape my father was in that crowd but sadly he passed away

Correction. Royal Marines Freudian Slip

JUST AWESOME !!! (NY/USA) 🙂🇺🇸

Happy days from when we served at HMS Raleigh Andy. I was ships company in Ajax galley.

The US Marine Core sent a band and we were grateful for their kind and fraternal gesture. They’re all Marines! x

@@simonpeterson6659 Gentle rebuke accepted.

@@jamierodg1 Not sure how to read your comment, but despite the fact that they're all Marines, I still feel that for a once-in-350-years occasion - and ESPECIALLY to honor the Best of their Fellow Marines! - the Corps should have sent the Big Band.

It was exciting to see the U.S. Marine Corps represented by the Second Division Band out of Camp LeJeune, N.C. General Lewis "Chesty" Puller would have been proud. The "Marines' Marine" backed his men to the hilt. A lifetime of service to the Corps and country, he was CO at Camp LeJeune where he retired in 1955. That's where I had the unique honor of serving in his newly created Honor Guard. The division band is truly representative of the military prowess of the 2nd Division and the United States Marine Corps. I was impressed with the Netherlands Marines, too. Three Corps of Marines, marching as one. Semper Fi.

truly wonderful

All True. You all know how to have fun and enjoy life. Which this type could happen more often.

Yes! Music please!

China

The French.

Did a lot of marching in the colonies.

Well said but unfortunately overly socialist countries find this stuff embarrassing

Your Marines are some of the best

@@hughgrection4205 lol the `Netherlands is not by far socialist ;-)

Beautifully done by marines of all three countries! God bless and protect us all!!

Translated: Three beautiful national anthems masterfully performed. A fraternal and Italic hug to the British, Dutch and American people.

Just to note the Corp of Drums don’t use music sheets ever, plus the way the Royal Marines do intricate drumstick movements bringing the sticks up under the nose in sync is impressive

You have to love doing something like this. Has to be a part of you 24 hours a day. It isn't something you regard as a job. It's your life. Dedication, combined with fine musicianship, precision marching skills, maneuvers executed without a command, bolstered by total dedication to Corps and country. Royal Marines set the goals and the standard. You have to be a Marine to get that unfathomable fantastic spirit. Once a Marine- Always a Marine. Per Mare Per Terram (by Sea By Land) U.S. Marines Semper Fi (Always Faithful) Dutch Marines Qua Patet Orbis ("As Far as the World Extends")

And women now

@@lloydcollins6337 is such pedanticism really necessary, most everyone knows that women are also a part of the bands, and respect them equally, the use of men is a historical one, and is nowerdays, if subconsciously, an abbreviation of personnel in context. You’re not wrong by any means, but it surely exhausting for everyone if you keep bringing it up.

What "line" is it that they are holding?

@@bigpardner They are still soldiers first and musicians second. THAT line.

@@lloydcollins6337 Wish I were younger. What a thrill that would be!

I'll bet your proud mate.And with very good reason.

You forgot to mention extremely talented musically...no small achievement , considering the practice required at this level of magnificently coordinated achievement ! I loved these brilliant Tattoos while in Grad. School, first in Denmark, then Edinburgh. The Black Watch came to North Carolina, then to Washington, DC..we went, of course! Stirring!

Agreed. And so is your Mini-Cooper.

You gave the world many lovely customs and very interesting history.

Hours and hours of rehearsal----I love this!!!!!!! I loved our American Marines--makes me proud to be an American!!!! The whole thing was so well performed!!!!

Are the Queen’s ships still wet?

@@peternotarfrancesco2614 Very much so !!!

Only on special occasions do they splice the main brace usually on Royal command, from the Palace.

Secret drum corps, equally amazing!

Barbaric sea plunders history. ☠🏴‍☠️ Free Northern island and Scotland.

@@questiondoneit2717 Nice. Just a thought old boy but the country is called Northern Ireland. If you are going to indulge in this sort of thing at least get the name right. Ta.

Not easy to keep in step though.There would be a lot of echo in NY.

Trust me Peter Lloyd these guys could keep in step anywhere

Think St. Patrick’s day parade or Thanksgiving parade

So, what die you do to be britisch?

@@dh1sbg I am British. Varani is my married name. Try at least to spell British properly.

@TAHIR DE LA NIVE ha ha ha😊

Proud to be sea plunders ☠🏴‍☠️!!!! 🤬 curse to the sea plunders!!

Say that again Susan and hear my Amen loud and clear!

Forgive my ignorance. Why is he commanding the Marines when he's of a different service?

@@paolocabling He's probably seconded or attached to a Royal Marines Commando Unit. He may well have completed a Commando course, and is serving with a Royal Marines Commando unit, but he has not joined the Royal Marines. Not all Commandos are Royal Marines.

@@CoherentChimp There was a USMC officer attached to them at some point alongside this highland officer too - saw them both in at least one parade.

The reason there is a Scottish Officer with the Royal Marines is because of the following historical Affiliation. Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders Early connections date from Balaclava in the Crimean War and Lucknow during the Indian Mutiny, but the main association stems from World War 2. In July 1940, after the fall of Dunkirk, the 5th Battalion, Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders served with the Royal Marine Brigade for over a year. When HMS Prince of Wales and Repulse were sunk in December 1941, the Royal Marines survivors joined up with the remnants of the 2nd Battalion, in the defence of Singapore. They formed what became known as 'The Plymouth Argylls', after the association football team, since both ships were Plymouth manned. Most of the Highlanders and Marines who survived the bitter fighting were taken prisoner by the Japanese. The Royal Marines inter-unit rugby football trophy is the 'Argyll Bowl', presented to the Corps by the Regiment in 1941. A message of greetings is sent to the Regiment each year on their Regimental Day, 25 October, the anniversary of the Battle of Balaclava in 1854.

@@redstripe54 Great answer, thank you.

A lot but less than you might imagine

You'll never know. You just get to see the finished product.

There are videos of the practices on KZfaq if you look for them
