Thank you for this. I'm just finishing up the multi-episode Mission History podcast. Your video provides much context. Much appreciated!

I paid honor to them as I watched. My 5th Great-Grandfather was a Colonial soldier. I think instead of a modern band they should have had The Old Guard Fife and Drum Corps playing period appropriate music.

The 71st Regiment of foot or "Highlanders" attached to Cornwallis' army did not have pipers at this time. Having a piper is a disservice in my opinion. 18th century "Scots Duty" was solely performed with the fifes and drums. Burial honors would have been a dirge or funeral march played by the fifes and muffled drums from the assembled field music. A very humbling reality that our Republic's freedom is not free. And battlefields left unattended to plundering rogues with metal detectors. These young men of Delaware and Maryland did their ultimate duty and paid with their lives facing the greater enemy. General Dekalb of France led with bravery at Camden, eventually bayoneted eleven times, and shot thrice with buck and ball. What a legacy for liberty of the free world. Thanks for sharing. Three Cheers!

Regardless if the regiment had pipes or not at that time, he was a Scot and I,m sure would have Been pleased and proud to have been laid to rest to the sound of his homeland. Those who organised this handled this ceremony with respect and dignity. Very well done

@@markmchardy8518 must enjoy one to squeeze the goat and make it sing? Inaccurate duty like some reenacting groups mislead the public on music performance, but I also concur. An enduring ceremony enen without the proper honors from 32 Highland fifers and drummers under one drum major. The 282nd band from Ft. Jackson did an outstanding job. Especially the 3 percussion Sgts with muffled rope tension drums draped in funeral cloth. I wrote the CO. Go read Von Steuben Regulations chapter XXI before tonight's "taptoo" at 9 o'clock. Three Cheers!

Yes, at this time (since the defeat of the Jacobites at Culloden in 1746) the Highland Bagpipe was banned as a "weapon of war". They only came back in the Victorian period through Sir Walther Scott and Robert burns through the Scottish revival.

Errrr isn't it the case that the Department of Defense is planning to put in a cemetery, on or near the battlefield, and this was just a ceremony of some kind and no burials have occurred?

Yes, I was there. Was told at least 500 more were less than a foot below our feet & it would become a military cemetery.

That was not a piper from a Scottish Regiment. Terrible noise.
