Wow!!! I loved the sailor being told off by the trooper!!! Everyone gets told..good for her!!! The L.Col telling the child and her parent was wonderful..swift and decisive!!! Great to see so many of our wonderful military personnel there selling poppies!!! It's a brilliant advert for our services!!! Thank you John!!! ❤❤❤xxxxxxx

The little girl was an uncontrollable brat !!

[@Cherylgielow]

@@johnking8679 I was wondering where the hell her parents, were and were they born without common sense. A child should not be that close to an unknown animal and especially not jumping by it. I blame her parents for her poor behavior.

John . I served 29 years .retired a captain . A lot of senior ranks served during the troubles and don't like to be on camera for security reasons . Troops in uniform can be a terrorist target .

[@dianeleitch]

My husband served 26 years in the army and they were then discouraged from keeping their uniforms on while leaving 'work'

[@FrithGarcia]

Captain, I am so very, very glad that you brought this to John's attention. Last mid-March I looked up mare Major Juno and as beautiful as she is, I have no wish to look her up again. I never take the Met for granted. Please be safe. Major Juno last mid-March.

[@MS-zu8ds]

Well said.

[@MS-zu8ds]

But, there are moments when the lieutenant colonel was shown on your video after you had assured him the camera was not pointed in his direction. We have to be so mindful regarding our services safety.

[@photopunks9195]

A lot of the senior ranks are told not to make comments because it can be misquoted and used against them.

[@Cherylgielow]

I used to call the lead I used on my very active children, a leash and harness. I was cursed at many times over what I was told; was treating my kids like dogs. Outsiders can call it what they wish, but I knew where my young children were, and it was with ME. Have a great weekend John. Cheryl from Dallas.

[@helenhallwood3580]

Ime a baby boomer and never have had trauma with my mother putting me in 'reins'.

[@Gwennedd]

I did the same. My oldest was not quite two and had to be leashed because he'd run around everywhere. In stores he'd run and hide under clothing racks or around displays. Meanwhile, I had his younger sister at 8 months in a stroller, so running after my son was impossible. A harness worked beautifully and kept him safe out on the streets and in stores.

[@munchkintheoneandonly9253]

It is what you call being a responsible parent, keeping them safe and you knowing exactly where they are.

[@jeanwoodhouse8899]

My son was always running away so I needed a lead on him.

[@tabithamori281]

I used them with my eldest son. Now his wife wants them for him now.

[@barbara1407]

When I looked after each of my three grandsons while my daughter worked, they always had a wrist strap, attached from their wrist to my wrist, while outside the house. I was responsible for their safety and they were always handed back safe to their mother. There is danger everywhere and kids can move like lightning - far better safe than sorry where kids safety is involved.

[@tammycawman7736]

Just so much respect for the female Tropper!

[@adelia988]

I’ve used the reins for my children when they were toddlers and a wrist strap too, it was stretchy, it’s totally safe and useful if you have more than one child who won’t use a pushchair as my eldest wouldn’t from one. Some have them attached to backpacks now.

[@hildatrellis907]

Lovely to see and hear the military police - my late husband’s Corps! RMP have always had a presence in Bulford.

[@Tannys-x5h]

Hi John Tannys Tomasz here from Winnipeg Manitoba, parents should have been watching their daughter anyway. Barbara was so sweet, tourons standing at staring at the horses and guards are just creepy . What are they waiting for the horse to do a juggling act and the trooper to start singing? Loved the lady trooper she was great..

[@pauljohnson4525]

My Dad was a career soldier it was everything to him , he served in WW2 and retired from the Army in 1970 indeed my Godfather was a Lieutenant Colonel ... My Dad sadly passed away in 2008 and I miss him every day.....THANK GOD FOR THE BRITISH ARMY.....and BLESS THE ALL.

[@syi2295]

That new pictograph, with the more recognizable horse & hand attempting to touch it, looks much better. The black background makes it pop and catch your attention alot better than the one that was all white. They still need to place another one on the opposite side of the box as well (in my opinion); but hopefully this new one will make even more of a difference (than the previous).

[@ClaudiaThomas-c7d]

Love the new signs. Much more eye catching. Do hope they help.

John you got this senior fellow in big time view. He walked right into your camera view to tell that little girl to stop clapping and running and jumping and waving her arms at the horse. He told her stop! I am so glad he did that. You may have missed all that as that scammer was tormenting you telling you how rude you were!!!! 😮. When you were NOT rude. Anyway. You got some great footage without even knowing it. It was not you either filming the senior fellow, he walked right up into you camera lens view himself to tell the little girl to stop her antics.

Hey John there's a new channel called Fight Trill !

I saw it and left a comment to take it down as was previously requested. Probably won't do any good. That video short has nothing to do with his channel's content anyway.🤷‍♀️

The Lieutenant colonel is clearly not the senior officer present. He was stood next to a Group Captain when you spoke to him!

[@5150Bud]

Here in the states if you are out in public you have no legal rights to restrict anyone from filming you. Just sayin that’s how it works over on this side of the pond.

[@starvingartist2824]

But you do have the right to tell someone to stop sticking his camera into a child's face and following them around the yard. That is creepy. He was told to stop.

My daughter had a cow backpack with the strap, that I would wrap tightly around my wrist because I have epilepsy and I was terrified she would be taken when I was having a seizure, so they are a brilliant design (regardless of ignorant people saying that you're treating your child like a pet). When you can't leave a toddler at home by themselves and shop for them at the same time, I did the best with what I had available. Thank you for your vid, Mate.

[@theresabarton1820]

Yeah. I was wondering about that, because I see John filming people who are posing for private photos at the telephone booth opposite Big Ben. Also, other people along his way to Horse Guards. He uses that footage in these videos, and those people are unaware. Nobody has commented. I find that shocking.

@@theresabarton1820 It may be a private photo but it is a public place so anyone can photograph/film them. If they want privacy they could book a photo studio.

Hi John just opened yourpost with the service personal and it is saying it was two hours ago is it being copied

[@joycehosaflook3755]

I do not know if your insignia for officers are the same as USA?? But for Army and Air Force in USA 1 gold bar is a 2nd Lt. And 1 silver bar is a 1st Lt. 2 silver bars is a Captain (except for Navy-Navy insignia is different) 1 gold maple leaf is a Major, a silver maple leaf is Lt. Col. And a silver eagle is a full Col. or they can also call it a Bird Col. Then 1 silver star is a Brigadier General, 2 stars is a Lt. General, 3 stars is a Major General, and 4 stars is a General. They used to have 5 star Generals back in the WW2 era. Gen. Eisenhower, Patton, and MacArthur were 5 stars I believe. My Dad retired as a Bird Col in the Air Force. He was a pilot in WW2 in the Army Air Corps. They did not have a branch of the Air Force then. They started one shortly after WW2 or during the end? Not quite sure when the Branch of armed services the Air Force was born. So if you have the same insignia, you will be able to tell now. But I am thinking they may be different. If they are, you will be able to tell the USA officers!!!! 😂
