Welcome home lads …much respect from the states

How good a marching rhythm is The Glendaurel Highlanders ! Expertly played by the legendary 'Black Watch' pipers. Superb homecoming scenes in the market town of Dunfermline. This fabled regiment saw action in campaigns such as WWI (Flanders) and the D-Day landings. We are privileged to have such dedicated service men & women.

Ever since I was a kid, I'm 62, I always loved the pipe and drum bands! I was always especially impressed by the tenor drummer twirling and spinning his sticks as he strikes the drumhead! VERY IMPRESSIVE! Andy not Annmarie!

Respectable bunch. Thankyou for your service.

I was with the Canadian Army many years ago. When we did ceremonial stuff it was so important to keep in step. It separated the professions from the mediocre. These people were superb.

When you see these lads it's no wonder that enemies down the years have feared and respected them!

I remember decades ago, I was able to watch the Scottish Premier League. Dunfermline used to be one of my favorite clubs. It's nice to actually see the Town of Dunfermline. There is nothing like the pipes and drums!

My Scotch/English ancestors came to America in 1622. The first time I saw/heard bagpipes, I was 7 or 8. I thought my heart would explode when I first heard the pipers come down the street at our Fourth of July parade. My eyes were hot with tears I couldn’t control.

I love these videos.

Here in the States many of our young people consider the military something to be ashamed of. Parades and any outward sign of respect is discouraged. When our troops come home they are simply placed on civilian transports and sent home. Any ceremony takes place at home station usually out of sight.

That's because the USA was founded on the principles of civil liberty while most European nations like the UK have very deep military traditions and it would be considered extremely wrong to abandon them. It's just the concept of going to parades with your family while growing up which later makes you proud of your military.

In the Netherlands we still have parades and Veterans Day. I live near an marine base and they organize a lot. But they are not allowed to travel in uniform anymore because if they do they will be an open target for terrorist attacks. It is an shame that it has come so far.

But they learned from the English. Well someone had to civilise them.

What happened to the size of the Tam o’ Shanter? I have seen several recent Forces videos and now this one here where the ToS looks like it is hardly bigger than a typical beret. Is it some sort of austerity measure? Great video, by the way.

Sometimes I really wonder about the reasons why my ancestors left Scotland in the 1660s to immigrate to America? Conditions must have been really bad to make them leave their homeland, never to return.

I like this first tune very much. Why it is played so dang rarely? :)

If the US Army is not too busy learning pronouns, it would be nice to parade to for a local town.
