❤ Proud to be Irish. We give and give. My family to this day have family members still in service and still in our peace keeping serve nations across the world. Erin go bragh 👏🙏

Thanks for putting that out there I'm Irish and would just like to say that our own traitor government are committing cultural genocide on us by allowing mass illegal immigrant men into our communities it's devastating the crime is only starting to increase.

Irish soldiers have always been highly regarded and respected throughout history.

Trying to fix what america and israel destroy also youtube protect paedophiles

Great video and great speech from JFK back in the day. Regrettably there are those in our present government planning to sell out our neutrality to some new form of Euro-Nato and its wars of aggression, which would be a betrayal of the men and women who proudly wore the blue beret all those years.

All this co es from 100s of yrs of history which would take an age to tell you

Good luck with everything there, mate. You've worked hard enough thus far. Keep it up . 👍🇬🇧

My Uncle Tom Flynn was part of the Jadotville battalion 155 men strong who fought to the last bullet against over 3K Congo illegal fighters. Not one Irish Soldier died but they did in protecting themselves kill over 1.5k of these fighters. There amazing leaders negotiated their surrender in the hopes of keeping all their men alive. Connor Cruise O'Brien a member of the government in Ireland tried to sacrifice these men but when they came back to Ireland the disrespect they were shown was just disgusting. Only in the last 10 years where these brave men awarded their meddles of bravery and to this day are still being denied they meddles their battalion chief had recommended they receive. I had the honor of meeting a number of these amazing soldiers at their meddle ceremony many years after they came home and to a man they were just amazing and beautiful souls who put up with a lot of shit when they came home. As they reach the end of their lives I am proud to say I stood among giants on the day they proudly were acknowledged as the Irish hero's they are.

You should read on pro isreal subreddits and r/worldnews what cunts are saying about the irish peacekeepers and the irish in general. Isreal has lost its fucking mine.

Hey Halestone, it’s been a while, lovely to see you hope your well. Congratulations on graduating college and commissioning into the army. Your hotel room is lovely. I know how hard it is being away from loved ones. My brother was in the navy submarine core here in the UK, we are a close family, it was hard him being away for long periods at a time. He was on the submarine for 13 years and retired last year so it’s good to have him close by again. Looking forward to seeing your clogs while your there if and when you can. 🎉🇬🇧👍🏻

They are mates with hezbollah aren't they.

First of all , you don't win a Victoria Cross , its not a bingo draw , .. you are award a Victoria Cross . And yes its the WORLD highest Medal , not just the British empire .

From Dublin Ireland. That armament on the wall in your living room would get you 10 years in the clinck here. No questions, no trial.

Respect to the soldiers of the IDF. However Ireland needs now to concentrate on protecting it's own borders and people. The NWO is busy destroying their land.

Pity Leo had to show his head and talk waffle at the end A man hopelessly out of touch with the ordinary man and woman of Ireland...A Gombeen...as we say in ireland.

Your right, the British military do, do parades very well, and always look great, we do not guard the tomb of the unknown solider like the American's do, that is very impressive.

Among the Army there is a myth that the reason the Life Guards do not wear there chin straps under the chin is due to there formation . The Blues and Royals are the old Parliamentarian troops of Cropwell new modern Army . There's Roundhead troops formed an elite Guard based on service and achievements, they became Cromwells Personal Guard .The Life Guards on the other hand were made up of fops and nerdowells and hangers on from Royalist familys that followed Prince Chales later King Charles the second into France . When Prince Chales was reinstated as King Charles he made two enlightened Decisions because he realised his so called Life Guards if push came to shove were not as caperble as Cromwells Commonwealth troop so he kept the Blues and also a foot Regerment the now Cold streem Guards . So where does the placement of the chin strap come in , well it's a petty slight at the Blues, the Royal did not like the blue they thought of them as Peasants not fit to Guard the King but they knew hands down in a scrap they would be beaten, so they used what little privilege they had and ignored the Army's regulation in how to wear there chin straps on there helmets, but there is a slight advantage to doing this , in hot weather the leather strap under the becomes uncomfortable itchy ect . As for the Curass breast plate they were coppeyed fron the French heavy Cavalry , they in turn took the Idea from the Polish who at the Time the 1800s carried of musket proofing like in some medieval armour you will find dents made by musket or heavy Pistol shot remember the heavy pistols used by Cavalry used the same caliber as the reissued muskets

my father wanted me to jion the irish army but i didnt they keep getting kidnapped so i join the british army

It was first done by the Duke of Malborough before the battle of Minden in the war of the Spanish Succession there are two flags one is the King's Colours the other the Regermental Colours the kings is always on the right of the line the Regermental is on the left .this way you can tell which way you are ment to be going and how . Normaly today when people talked about the Colours they are normaly talking about the kings Colours and not the Regermental colours. For instance the Essex Regerment there colours are yellow with a Union flag in the top right corner it also will have Battle name embroidered onto it

Congo was a different and noble era...bunch of embarrassing carrots now in unifil...

3:20 into you're Video ,,, why are you Removing you Head Dress,, ( HAT ),, really you had to ask that??? even American Troops will arm their Head Dress when spoken to , by the President it is to show the Ultimate Resect ,, to your King, Queen, or Country ,, even under certain Religions Beliefs ,, when you Remove your Head Dress it is to show Humbleness to your Government,, Country and even, to, Which God you Worship,, too say that ,,,,"I am only a Humble servant to you" These Men and Women whom , defend our Countries and beliefs deserver the Ultimate Respect as you as a former Military Person should appreciate,, These are the Young People , who, choose, to go off and fight,, and DIE,, for what we ,, the people believe in and they all have my Respect and Admiration

The Irish do not suffer bullies.

Pity varadkar is in this video, ruins it, 🙏💕🇮🇪

Some speech from Kennedy

Ireland stands by and watches Israel kill women children flatten towns villages cities. Genocide and Ethnic cleansing from the same nation who hung Jesus up on a cross. Gods chosen people?

Cantonese Troops? I don't think the Chinese were in the Congo in the '60's, rather it was the Katanganese.

My father served in '62 in the Congo and long since retired it was a weekly occurrence that he would meet up with a couple of the lads, sometimes 2 or 3, other times 5 or 6 and all were out in the Congo and Cypress, the old stock, they had stories some were weird and wonderful and some that were tragic as most knew of lads that were killed while over there as was a good friend of mine killed in the Leb., early 90's, and its one of the reasons that Ireland is proud of it Defence Forces.

I like the American National Anthem too

After the Blues and Royals came the Guards you will see at the z Tower of London. They are known as Beefeater’s. They guard the tower and the Crown Jewels.

Not my king. Monarchy died with QE2

Do you remember the old films, where a gentleman raised his hat to a lady. It's a personal sign of respect...still I hope!

The troops at the back with were forgien contingents from other commonwealth countires.

I don’t get it. People salute him, and he just stands there like a stuffed animal in the royal gear. Should he have not said something or, at least, saluted them? That’s just RUDE, if nothing else.

I think the reason the Irish army over performs is because it is under resourced it has to improvise, that creates a mindset of thinking on your feet. It's also has the humility to watch, study and learn from the best military units from other countries. So what it does, it does very well.

more brainwashed bull, all this whilst people sleep on the street.

To me this is sickening....mega rich and privileged because of an accident of birth...time to abolish the monarchy

Gay Byrne had some right dick on he's late late show at the time but the one to take the price is conor cruise o brien he had some right prick on he's show but conor took the biscuits he was passed off as some sort of intellectual I ask you I remember my late mother disgust at the treatment of these brave men

he is garrison sgt major inn charge of all the timing and all events

Also note at the time that the 13 colonies had much less importance compared to what became British India due to the spice trade. Britain was never forced to surrender the 13 colonies as it made no sense to spend money on land that had much less trade value than Asia.

There are some debates where it could be argued that it was a civil war between the English "Americans" against the English "British" as both sides were citizens of the British Crown. This is mainly debated outside of USA.

Long live the king

It's lovely to hear an insider's perspective. I'm from the UK and I equally love the American national anthem (very complex!) and it's great to see the USMC dressed in their dress house too. Maybe it's the exoticism of the unfamiliar?

British military drummers wear leopard skins over their tunics to protect their uniforms and instruments, the tradition of wearing big cat skins dates back to the 18th century. In the Royal Marines, bass drummers traditionally wear tiger skins, while tenor drummers wear leopard skins.

King Charles doesn’t wear all that regalia all the time. Probably mainly for Coronations and opening of parliament. It’s part of our history when instead of the King making decisions on how the Kingdoms were run ‘parliament’ and the government did that.

The old can't walks like he as piles .

this was one of my favorite parts of the great day

Removing hats or helmets is where the tradition of the salute comes from. Originally men would remove their hats completely, which became a bit impractical when helmets became more complicated, and it was a bit untidy. So the salute with the hand was introduced instead, where the hand is raised to the hat but the hat not removed. In the British tradition, a soldier does not even salute if he is not wearing a hat, he bows his head instead. In civilian society the hand would be raised to the head, hence "forelock tugging". That's not done at all now!

That was a chaotic video. There’s no way you could understand what was actually going on. The trooping itself wasn’t shown! Hope you get the chance to see a better presentation some time. Enjoyed the reaction though.

As an American soldier I have to say that nobody does military ceremonies like the Brits.

The King needs to wake up and start taking an interest in his rapidly deteriorating country filling up with illegal immigrants, London turning into a filthy sewer, stabbings are a daily occurrence. Public parks filled with illage immigrant tents, faeces, trash and fiends ec, etc, etc.
