I was one of the buglers at this very proud to be part of it.

[@doraldeddy1836]

Wow. This was brilliant. I know it’s over thirty years ago, but it’s stood the test of time fantastically! Thank you👍👍👍

Brings back memories' ex 1 RGJ 72-76 B coy and Recce Pltn.

[@johnstevenson1709]

The skill to march like that and hit pure notes on a bugle is incredible

[@emstirling-is4nu]

Its a pity we do not have as many any more. Playing a Bugle is a rare talent that only a few have, so bring 'em back!

[@legsdiamond4402]

Those were the days when we had band and bugles got nothing like it now

[@johntrlong]

The Light Division at its very best 💯💯💯🎵👌🎵

[@emstirling-is4nu]

Still impressive today. Love the bugles.

[@johnsaxelby]

Still stirs my blood this is epic

[@Richard500]

The Sambre et Meuse is by far my favourite! I always think it's two fingers to the French! 😊😊😎

[@johntrlong]

I think this was 1985? Or 86. There are all four bands on parade and all of the bugle platoons from both regiments. I watched the parade. I had recently transferred from the Corunna Band to the Welsh Guards band. I had to go and watch. I was ( and still are) very proud that I was a member of the Light Division. Thank you so very much for posting this video. For myself, this was the last time the “ Best of the Best” marched together. Even though there were more massed Light Division displays to come after this one, this was the one that truly captured the sound of the Light Division before all the defence cuts really started to kick in.

What was the slow march? It is so moving!!

[@johntrlong]

@@simonelliott6669 The title of the slow is “Speed your Journey “. It is the chorus of Hebrew slaves from the opera Nabucco written by G. Verdi.

[@neilhunt6476]

Actually it was June 1987...Depot, all Regular Bn's, plus TA Buglers, then Depot & 4x Regular Bands and 2x TA
