RBL2012 - The Last Post - 720p HD

[@stix1664]

This was probably the proudest, and most nerve wracking, moment of my career in the RM Band. Played especially for all the family and friends of those who have lost loved ones in British conflicts.

[@davidward3407]

This is by far the hardest of all services. When the last post is sounded by heart is literally ripped from my chest and put through a meat grinder. It is so overwhelming that I simply cant resist the emotion it brings. My father, who survived Palestine, Eden, North Africa and Italy, and my grandfather who died on the last day of the great war during an airstrike on the hopsital where he was recovering, I can only say thank you and kneel in awe and recognition.

[@bron72daz]

i know this feeling kills me almost but i know i must go on devastating no words to say x

[@xXJumboShrimpXxPS3]

I think it's great that you guys in the UK do this for your fallen. (I'm from America) I just think it's really special. I just wish people my age would give those who died for you and I more respect. Dearest condolences from across the pond.

[@SuperNutkin]

This is exactly how Last Post should be played. This Royal Marines Bugler played it perfectly, despite the possibility of his nerves whilst playing in front of HM The Queen, The Royal Family, the Royal Albert Hall audience and the many millions watching on the television. Well done that Royal Marine. SuperNutkin

True dat

[@BorisCr]

Sometimes, silence speaks louder then words...

[@Sogeking995]

I always wonder what it must have felt like to attend these kind of ceremonies in the years immediately following WW2; no fancy recording or light show, just pure raw emotion. Imagine hearing the last call played as Europe buried millions of its own. I suppose I'm very lucky to not know the feeling. As an American, I'm still absolutely in awe of the courage and resolve of the British in those days, and how well you honor them still.

[@toby7591]

I am a trumpeter myself and I know much it takes to get up and play in front of 200 people, let alone thousands, the Queen and viewers from home. Well played!

[@decbrown4115]

Jim I have total respect for you, you did your country, your Queen, your family, yourself and all of our fallen proud.

[@LillyCandyCane]

A simple piece of music but one of the most powerful. At the going down of the sun and in the morning we will remember them.

[@conordavid5718]

Why would you dislike this? A poignant event. The last post is hauntingly beautiful

[@juliajones699]

Brings a tear to my every time I hear this, very moving.

[@vikkiniccolls4459]

Well done Jim! A note perfect tribute to all those that have given up their lives during conflicts past and present to give us all the freedom we have today. Also a fitting tribute to the time you spend as part of the Royal Marine band service . Proud of you. Even if you did used to drive me mad practising the drumming on radiators at home when you had just joined up. I guess it was worth it. Your proud sister xx

[@abigailholt5780]

My great great grandad holt died in that war. He was really unlucky. He was injured. Not seriously but badly and on the way to the hospital his ambulance was blown up. The medics, the other men, great great grandad, the driver and the horses were blown to pieces. Murdered! It is important to remember the horses in WW1. Nobody does. They played a key role in many battles. R.I.P Great Great Grandad and all the 25 men from my village and all the nurses, factory workers, horses,etc R.I.P to the men from both sides of the war. R.I.P and well done!

[@GotQuality]

Gives me the chills every time I hear this

[@GlockGrippa]

Casually browsing KZbin and then find this surprising thing waiting for me. The young lad playing bugle goes to my school. Mind=blown.

[@jpb3000]

This is the best thing I've ever seen

[@davidsewellclarke676]

As I have said before, my Grandfather's, Great Uncles my Father have served in the army . I would have joined but my Father cancelled my application to join. The year was 1977, due to the troubles in Northern Ireland, need i say more. I'm proud of being British . The going down of the sun, and in the morning, we will remember them. This was their finest hour.

[@undacoover1819]

Salute for today everyone.

[@abigailholt5780]

How can anyone unlike this video. It is an extremely respected song and it is very serious. The next person to unlike this has to say why. IT HAS TO BE A GOOD REASON!!!!!!!!

[@jfa254]

[@MRBOBBERLEEN]

God bless you Lee Risby and all of our other fallen comrades. Sleep tight our Hero.

[@jameslerner3232]

I humbly apologise for the advert at the start of this clip. Is it ever right to wish and American War Veteran a Happy Memorial??? NO. No one in or connected with the military is untouched by loss and the futlity of war. THANKS FOR THOSE WHO FREEDOM THAT I MIGHT BE BORN.

[@jallfjallf]

What exactly is this? A yearly celebration for fallen people in the British army? Is it at the Royal Albert Hall? Very powerful! Came by this clip looking for Taptos from different countries.

[@walshamite]

Top class bugling.

[@gstone1345]

Thank you

[@reddevilparatrooper]

Very much respect...............

[@victoriastothard6579]

This always brings a tear or 3 to my eyes my heart breaks rip all

[@แฟรงค์คนท้องถิ่น]

I have the utmost respect for the people that serve in the armed forces, but why is there arabic text on the screens either side of the stage??????????????

[@stixjohno]

Its just the way it was decoded, and combine that with LCD screens at a venue that you see on the tv, it all just gone a bit fuzzy, I think it was scrolling the names of those who paid the ultimate sacrifice from 2012 to 2013. Hope that answers you question.

[@patrickbuick5459]

Indeed, in full screen at 3:22-3:25 or so, there is a view of the screens which clearly shows the names, rank and age of those to be remembered.

[@danielambda3456]

first of all it is not only arabic but Russian was also seen, and secondly, Anzac day is to commemorate the fallen troops ( commonwealth) and if there are people from different nationalities at the felicitate which means they must also understand. This could also be a symbolic gesture to promote unity amongst different ethnicities during Anzac Day.

[@Chris-iy5qv]

Neil Sandilands Its in English but blurry because the low quality video. It's the names of British soldiers who died in Afghanistan. If you pause the video you can see first few lines start with Lance Corporal then a name and then their age at the end in a number.

[@stixjohno]

Yes its Jim

[@iainstewart6893]

Er, they're Poppy petals..........

[@Smeagoldor]

They're Poppy petals, the Poppy is used in remembrance for those who served in the Commonwealth.

[@mikewalrus4763]

Poppies! every one represents a life lost!

[@llew777]

Blood shed very symbolic.

[@fossy4321]

Michael Tomljenovic I think they're poppies. The remembrance poppy has been used since 1921 to commemorate soldiers who have died in war.

[@markandaudge]

Hoofing.
