Our boy's and girl's smashing it yet again proudly .

[@sjbict]

This is not the Beating Retreat this is the march back to barracks down the Mall towards Buckingham Palace after the ceremony has taken place. It takes place on the parade ground of Horse Guards There is a video on YT of the whole Beating Retreat

[@declanflood1914]

thank you for not talking and pausing well done

[@NAIATHEDRAGON]

🤜🤛

[@joyparry1375]

My Dad served with the Royal Marines during WW2 and always stressed that they were all trained Marines who just happened to be able to "play a bit"!! 😉 ... their telling of the story of the Unknown Warrior is very moving ...

[@melbeasley9762]

The leopard skin is worn only by bass and tenor drummers in all three services. It's to protect the uniform as the rope tensioners were whitened with blanco, which rubs off.

[@bernardtaylor7043]

The leopard skin (or leopard print apron) is used by the bass and tenor drummers to cushion the weight and protect the uniform. I was in a scout band in the 1970s and our bass drummer had one. I think almost all marching bands in Britain use them.

[@charlieyerrell9146]

What you have to remember is that they are not just bands men and women they are trained in all ways of military work.

[@DianeLittle-dd6ej]

Exactly like the royal military tattoo display

[@user-pv6fv6bz4f]

I live in Portsmouth, the home of the Royal Marine School of Music. All musicians must pass the Marines basic training before spending three years full time learning two instruments before being qualified and sent to one of the bands.

[@melbeasley9762]

You should watch them do the theme to Gladiator.

[@helenwood8482]

As my Dad, a Royal Air Force man says, "The Marines aren't RAF level, but they can drum."

[@melbeasley9762]

I'm ex Army but the RM Band beats all services, especially the RAF.

[@RogersRamblings]

@@melbeasley9762 To be fair, the Royal Marines aren't RAF level. The Booties would die of shame if that was the best they could manage.

[@KGardner01010]

The Leopard skin mainly protects the uniform from the drum that is being carried - more so on the far larger bass drums . . . There are usually 2 Officer rehearsals taking place before the Trooping of the Colour even takes place each year - (Major General & Lt Colonel, I think?). They march down to Horseguards from their barracks for the parade, and then they do the parade itself, lastly heading back to barracks lasts around 2 and a half hours on their feet, marching and playing . . . It's not wrong to even say that the RMMB is the best military band in the UK either, more so down to their large drum line at the front - as no other military band has the same amount of them as they do. So, that means that whereas most of the others sound about the same with their limited drummers - the RMMB really stands out when they are performing or marching anywhere as a unit or as a full group.

[@sjbict]

Its Beating the Retreat not Trooping the Colour

[@AnthonyValentine-vm1yc]

You did the right call not to interupt. Thank you for your respect.

Suggestion: The Bands of HM Royal Marines: Gladiator

[@miamonan9627]

I’m not sure why I was so cheered up by watching this, maybe it was the uplifting rhythm of the drums, or blasts of brass, or maybe the sight of so many people marching and playing in perfect synchronicity, all creating such a unified parade of sight, sound, and clockwork precision. All I know is it made me smile, and ponder the wonders of what can be achieved by us humans if disciplined and devoted to duty. It’s a world away from my mindset, but I appreciated it nonetheless.

[@caroline_scotland]

Massed bands never disappoint😌 Only fair you do ‘Bagpipes Bands performing "Amazing Grace" LIVE’ though😬😜 haha Much love peeps💙🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@juniusvindex769]

Ah, yes the great English song Scotland nicked and pretends is theirs........ 🙄🤦‍♂️

[@juniusvindex769]

I say this as my dad was a Methodist taught us this on piano as it was used in his chapel as a kid and was sung all the time by my dad. Just a pity the Scots hijacked it......... just saying.

[@caroline_scotland]

@@juniusvindex769 I’ve actually never cared much for the hymn. We used to have to sing it in school assembly😣😂 I do love it on the pipes though😌 And aye.. it is played in Scotland, but also in several other countries as well so wouldn’t go as far as stealing it😜…Is no different to people singing Auld Lang Syne😌x

[@jimmyhillschin9987]

You're just doing this for the quota.

[@stephenelliott1135]

Most wars fought by Britain in Africa was Britain trying to end slavery against pro-slavery African leaders. You probably don't believe me, research it. Starting with Thomas Sowell would be a good idea.

[@suepoole8323]

To me the leopard skin wearing shows respect to those African tribes that used it in their ceremonial dress. It made me sad to hear you say the things you said. Please do some research by watching YT video as to who put a stop to this particular period in history, years before the US and paid for it (we finished paying in 2015).. I wish you well on your journey with the channel

[@NAIATHEDRAGON]

I mentioned the Brits calling a stop to it?

[@DianeLittle-dd6ej]

@@NAIATHEDRAGONfirst ever slaves where the whites the Irish well before the African people. And amongst the Irish was the Scottish people also known as the Irish as once Irish was known as the Scot’s and Scot’s known as the Irish we are of the same ancestry and we came to America together as one

[@DianeLittle-dd6ej]

@@NAIATHEDRAGONonly the Irish are now part free from England and Northern Ireland are not scotland are still fighting for that freedom with 2014 referendum fixed to lose and it did lose fire alarms yes votes on no tables and why ? Because scotland has the oil and gas ⛽️ water wind farms and Angus beef and the irn bru tourism and whisky industry

[@DianeLittle-dd6ej]

London economy wouldn’t prosper without Scotland

[@NAIATHEDRAGON]

​@@DianeLittle-dd6ejYou should definetley watch my video titled "The truth about irish slaves, the first slaves brought to America". I think that'll give you a better understanding of what I am aware to. The irish were able to have indentured servitude though which is still differen't from chattel slavery. As far as the FIRST slaves ever though...I don't think we would even truly know because humans been doing it so long.

[@dennismills6887]

definitely not beating the retreat. just saying

[@NAIATHEDRAGON]

Just going off what the title says.

[@pathopewell1814]

These videos are all doing the rounds from American presenters. Making money I guess!
