Holy fuck that guy is tall

Love from india ❤ . Every culture deserves respect-unless it's built on hostility. Colonial powers like the British left scars by exploiting and erasing native cultures across glob, driven by greed. Let’s honor diverse traditions and acknowledge histories of resilience against oppression. 🌍 #CulturalRespect #Decolonize

wow!!

Don’t forget that Australians, New Zealanders and Canadians who came across the seas to stand with the British, French and the Belgians. Grüße aus Australien. Tschüss.

Well played Deano

Well done Andy!

A Beautiful and powerful moment 👍🏼👏🇬🇧

Je ne peux pas ne pas avoir la larme à l’œil en pensant à ces milliers de victimes UK et leur engagement durant la première guerre mondiale. Cette cérémonie est toujours émouvante et nécessaire pour les générations futures.

It’s pretty over done 🥱

HI ... Do you have any footage of VE day 8th May 2024 - My son was there with his Army section.

GOD SAVE THE KING. LONG LIVE THE KING.

GOD BLESS THEIR MAJESTIES.

real horsehairs.

My mother who served in the, Waf was here during the war God bless you all❤❤❤❤

This was a beautiful ceremony❤

Wij waren er bij. Heel indrukwekkend.

Dankbaar om dit terplekke te mogen meemaken deze bewuste avond... zelfs na zovele keren, blijft het beklijvend. Lest we forget

Superb and must never be forgotten the sacrifices so many people made for us to let us lead our lives as we know today.

Thank you for the wonderful service. I remember attending one there back in 2011 near ANZAC day and will be back there next year with my wife on her first trip to Europe from Australia. One question. Is the Gate undergoing some restoration works at the moment? It looks like you've screened off a lot of the panels.

Very moving service ..god bless and keep them safe .

Monstruosa interpretación !! La escucho diario, antes de salir a trabajar !

Gestern Feind - heute Freund, gestern Freund - heute Feind: Die Fronten wechseln - der Krieg bleibt. Was nützt alles Gedenken an die Kriegsopfer der Vergangenheit, wenn die Heutigen und die Zukünftigen aus der Geschichte nichts lernen!

Since the reason for this event may not be readily apparent, the following may provide some context. The Last Post ceremony at the Menin Gate in Leper (Ypres), Belgium, was part of a two-day Household Cavalry commemoration marking the centennial of its memorial column, erected and unveiled in Zandvoorde by Field Marshall Haig in May, 1924. He was the brother-in-law of Charles Sackville Pelham Lord Worsley, a 27-year-old lieutenant in the Royal Horse Guards whose death while in charge of the machine gun section in Zandwoorde provided inspiration for the column. It memorializes 120 men of the Household Cavalry, who were killed or went missing when the Germans captured the village of Zandvoorde Ridge in October 1914. The weekend remembrance, organized through the efforts of Lord Aster of Hever, Field Marshal Haig's grandson, included ceremonies in Zandvoorde and Ypres. The Household Cavalry were accompanied by their band and by the London Scottish Pipes and Drums and Field Marshall Haig's Pipes & Drums. The Household Cavalry also brought three horses. They appear in the video at the end of the parade; the lead horse and rider are in WWI kit. The Menin Gate was significant to the Household Cavalry's commemoration because inscribed on the walls are the names of those who died without trace at Zandvoorde from the 1st and 2nd Life Guards, part of the Household Cavalry. Similarly there are also the names of the dead never found in Zandvoorde from the Machine Gun section of the Royal Horse Guards (the Blues), a storied antecedent regiment of the Household Cavalry's current Blues and Royals, formed by a merger of The Blues with the 1st (Royal) Dragoons. The anecdote mentioned by one of the speakers refers to the unusual circumstances surrounding the recovery of Lord Worsley's body. It was not found until information about its whereabouts was unexpectedly conveyed through diplomatic channels by the Germans who had buried him and marked his grave with a cross. The land where he was interred was bought by his widow but after her husband's body was exhumed and reburied elsewhere as part of post war centralization efforts, the empty grave became the site for the Household Cavalry memorial column.

What a lovely way to remember them. So much birdsong in the background. Beautiful. ✝

Beautiful and very moving service. Lest we forget

Life guards and blues and royals 💂🇬🇧

Beautiful service, very moving. Love to all.

Disgrace that this was not in the Main media!!! Thank you for posting. This is remembering those who gave their lives in the war to end all wars. They must be asking what has gone wrong.

Thoughts and prayers, From The United States 🇺🇸🙏

Obviously, the Belgians have costly renovations underway. A bit more planning by the British organizers would have been in order with an altar of regimental drums rather than using a pedestrian barrier.

Beautiful why was this service not given more time this is something worth a lot more attention.😥😥😥

Beautiful service full of remembrances and respect. I truly appreciated this service. Blessings to you all. 🙏🙏🙏

Rugby is great. But this group of Kiwis represent our Armed Forces. Our history in warfare is what unifies us as Kiwis. Most NZs have multiple family members who fought and died. In war. Warfare, like Rugby brings all Kiwis as usual an understated great pride. And you can see that pride displayed here. This Haka defines us as Kiwis better thanthe rest on the internet.

At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, WE WILL REMEMBER THEM!

Zeer beklijvende video , not forget never and ever

we might be a long way away. But out hearts are with my, my fellow Dutch persons. Thank you

Thank you for posting this video. Very much appreciated from New Zealand.

Over a hundred years since the end of the Great War and every time the Last Post is still so moving. God bless all those killed, injured or traumatised. We remember you all. Every one.

Bugger me that man in the middle is a monster, very glad he is on my side

Dit was werkelijk een vernederende, respectvolle en emotionele ervaring. Heel erg bedankt dat u ervoor heeft gekozen om de “Exhortatie” uit te spreken en dat ikzelf en Vince Retter de kranslegging hebben geleid. Wij danken u ook voor het toestaan dat onze vaandeldrager Jon Meyer bij een dergelijke gelegenheid aanwezig was. We waren uitzonderlijk vereerd om aanwezig te kunnen zijn; zoals ik ook en spreek voor mijn medereizigers en vrienden van Horley Royal British Legion

Such a wonderrful service, so emotional and humbling. The Choir had such beautiful voices. What is the title of the song they are singing.

I have attended the ceremony twice- 1989 and on parade in uniform as a Cdn Lt 2017. My maternal grandfather was wounded at Canal du Nord 28 September 1918 and survived. So many names without a known grave. from Calgary, Canada

The guys on the wall behind them would have been impressed , same patriotism, RIP. Victor Newman Jacobs 16 th Battalion

Belgium remembers and Belgium is grateful

What an emotion

ANZAC day is obscene, invading some else's country on the other side of the planet for yet another Imperial adventure. How many tens of thousands of young Turkish lads died defending their country? When are you going to commemorate them? How many grieving Turkish widows, orphans did this Imperial adventure create? I was on ANZAC Catafalque party in 2010 and all the Female officer speaker mentioned was the sacrifice of Australian women on deployment. When are you going to commemorate the tens of thousands of Boer babies, children and women who died in South African British concentration camps? People we help kill by directly assisting the British in their illegal war against the Boer republics to seize their Gold mines? When are you going to commemorate the appropriate +2 million Vietnamese fighting the USA? And then we can start on Afghanistan and Iraq. You don't see the Germans commemorating the 22nd of June and the Invasion of the USSR that resulted in +25 million dead.
