Just had to write a comment on such a lovely presentation I was a scaly back and worked with the infantry but my days were later than yours by the looks Though most things stay the same especially your mates and on the drink and constantly trying to stay dry and keep your kit clean I could go on forever!😂😂😂👍

I’m pretty sure that one of the buglers you see right towards the end of the clip was former Bugle Major Tony Wells. I remember seeing him at one of the Edinburgh Tattoos. Can’t remember whether it was 2001 or 2005 but I recall he was the Bugle Major for one of those Tattoos

Happy memories of my time in the Band & Bugles of the D.L.I. At Copthorne barracks Shrewsbury, also with the lads from K.O.Y.L.I. the K.S.L.I. and the S.C.L.I. Reporting to the Guardroom in January 1960. Made some great friends. Where have the years gone.

My old Regiment ROYAL HAMILTON LIGHT INFANTRY (Wentworth Regiment) from CANADA is allied with the Somerset Light Infantry. We as well use the number 13 as we were known as the 13th Battalion Canadian Militia at one time. We adapted the SLI Regimental Colours of Green,Blue Yellow which can be found on our Regimental ties.

Hello, I am looking for the regimental march of the 2nd KSLI, called "The Daughter of the Regiment." I can only find "Old Towler" when I search for KSLI marches and I can only find the opera when I search for "The Daughter of the Regiment." Apparently it's not from or related to the opera from what I've seen. Can anyone point me to a recording of this tune please?
@thebestofforum8 жыл бұрын
I found this video while looking at other things and saw your 'plea.' Though it was made one month ago and I do not know if you want to purchase the tune or otherwise I did a (very) quick search and I wonder if this would be of any help to you. If not then I hope I haven't wasted your time ;) shropshireregimentalmuseum.co.uk/shop/view/2_CDs/197_KSLI_1963_Concert_Munster
