IG-KurtyFlo
What's Up ya'll Thanks SO much for watching!
Today on Kurty Flo Live! we become witness to perhaps the most moving Haka performance that I have ever seen thus far on Kurty Flo Live! A New Zealand Army performance of the Haka to honor their fellow fallen comrades who lost their lives fighting for the country of New Zealand and sacrificing all they had for their family and friends. It is with a heavy heart that I say thank you for your service and may all of our fallen soldiers rest in peace.
Thanks For Watching.

I live not far from the WWI Belgian and French battlefields, so i visit these sites quite often. always impressive to see what happened here, the bloodshed and the sacrifice that has been made by so many. That is why we will honor these men until the end of times, because they deserve it!. Lest we forget! Messines Ridge is a very beautiful cemetary btw. There are still the craters around the ridge, and there is also still a bunker there. History still lives here, even after more than one century. Everything is maintained and preserved very well. Families of fallen, still come and visit their loved ones that are buried here.

Everyone at the base was super respectful

Thanks bro for doing that. So back story to this is our three warriors: “At approximately 9:20 p.m. local time, a Humvee taking a patrol member to see a doctor at Romero base in Bamiyan province was destroyed by an improvised explosive device. Three New Zealand soldiers were killed instantly: Corporal Luke Tamatea (31) of Kawerau, medic Lance Corporal Jacinda Baker (26) of Christchurch, and Private Richard Harris (21) of Pukekohe, who was driving the Humvee. Baker, a recipient of the Chief of Army Commendation, was the first New Zealand servicewoman killed as a result of enemy action since 10 nurses drowned when the transport Marquette was torpedoed in 1915 (see 23 October).”

I was only in for a couple of years, but I found the NZ Army a fascinating mix of Maori, colonial and British culture and traditions, with Maori predominating, in my opinion. In addition, there are a significant number of folks from other Polynesian peoples in the NZDF. The culture also seems to get past, to some degree, the Tongan vs Samoan issues, as well as Mongrel Mob vs Black Power issues. Which is a pretty big fricken deal.

Thanks for standing and for your respect for both the haka and the fallen, my friend. Something you may already know, but the NZ Army is called Ngati Tumatauena in the Maori language. It means ‘Tribe of the God of War’. It is a multicultural force, European kiwis, Maori, Pasifika, Asian, but it is United around the strong identity and culture of our First People, the Maori. Hence the haka.

To see men and woman in spiritual deep pain with pride proudly displaying the haka and feeling it is another level. You respect the meaning. You will be welcome to NZ and they will secure your journey to learn. Deep and fulfilling journey with similar haka from our Polynesian family. Your indigenous/American Indian have similar “haka”. Your learning journey, the spirits will guide you. Stay humble. Stand and receive.

The white Australians, South Africans Zambians, Zimbabwean, Kenyans and American and Canadian people would probably be embarrassed to perform a local African or Native American war dance but the white New Zealand people have totally taken the Haka and other elements of Maori culture to their hearts and the Haka is seen at funerals, weddings, sports event, celebrations etc with no embarrassment or feeling of being stupid or silly and the facial hair and movements in the white New Zealanders are the same as the Majority people. It shows how much respect the Maori culture has.

Hi KurtyFlo, Just a little background on New Zealand - NZ is part of the 52 British Commonwealth of Nations, and one half of the New Zealand/Australian ANZAC fighting history,, and now our shared April 25th National day of respect, mourning, and appreciation for our shared heritage in WW1 and WW2 and others. In WW1 New Zealand lost more military deaths per head of population than any other country involved in either the Allies or the other side. In the national museum Te Papa, in Wellington, there is an extraordinary exhibition called 'Gallipoli: The Scale of Our War' telling the story of NZ in WW1. In 2019 it was opened and was acknowledged internationally as a groundbreaking exhibition and the No 1 museum exhibition worldwide. It was created by Sir Peter Jackson, the Director of the 'Lord of the Rings' and 'The Hobbit' movie trilogies, and has extraordinary larger than lifesize models created by Weta Workshop. You can see an overview of the making on KZfaq - Gallipoli: The Scale of Our War at Te Papa, and other videos such as -The Making of 'Gallipoli - the Scale of Our War (2015). Thank you for showing this very moving Haka. Thank you for your respect.
