I'm an old US Marine. I completely admire the care for tradition, pride, and discipline of these fine warriors. Any nation would be honored to have their service.
Those lads have sharpened all of their skills to a razors edge. That first rendition of 'Scotland the Brave' was blindingly fast. Truly the best of their best.
Thanks for your service Greg. Remember. Scots don't just make up the Scottish Regiments like the Black Watch. They are in the Royal Navy, Royal Air force, The Royal Marines and the Special Forces. The SAS was founded by a Scot in WW2.
I'm not Scottish but I can't watch these pipers without getting choked up. It so beautiful to see a people so proud of their traditions, grand traditions, and see the young getting caught up in them too. Scotland forever, Scotland the great, this is what the music and parade say.
Im not scottish either but the pipes and drum make my heart beat faster..my dad was in a pipe band here in northern ireland and although i dont remember him in it i cherish the photo of him as a young man in his kilt and regalia
As an Englishman, and simple civilian, I am very proud to be part of the Union between Scotland and England. Scottish soldiers are some of the best in the world!
As a one Serbian citizen(even not pure Serb)i am only JELOUS because our Yugoslavia(Our"Balcan Britannia") was ruined..by croatian TRAITORS.😪But many people still love Yugoslavia.
Always were and will be You all sat on thrones for someone you didn't want to believe and were jealous of. Knowing you all wipe each other out for it. Plus who wants to be surrounded by followers and uselessness. Why you don't get lead to water. God's just as sadistic as you are to him. Plus you needed his genetics to not be inbred greedy pos, and he'll leave you only to follow. The best doesn't have to help or forgive you. The best condemns and judges you for the cretinous inbred greedy pos you are. Blood proves this. You are not in based on God's circle and blood type.
And rightly so. They have a record to be proud of. I don't know how true it is but I heard a story once of them taking a German position during WWI without firing a shot. Apparently they marched over the hill with the pipes and drums playing and the enemy surrendered. I think that was where they collected the nickname "The Ladies From Hell"
I’m a former English RN Commando who’s fortunate enough to be getting married to a wonderful Ayrshire next June. We’re getting married in Black Watch Tartan out of the huge respect we have for both the Regiment and the country. Fantastic bunch of guys
Im an ex Bundeswehr Soldat PzGrenBtl32 Nienburger Grenadiere and I love Bagpipes and Drums , i worked 1998 to 2014 here in Germany as Civi for the British Foces Germany , 28.EngrRgt Hameln Station as ACW ,after my Bundeswehrzeit , Thx for your Sevice Fellows .All the Best for you in the Future .
Loved the Shetland Pony Mascot. He was so well behaved. I lived in Perth for six years, 2010-2016, so it was good to see the town again. Watching from Canada. There is nothing like the pipes and drums to stir the blood. "Scots Wha Hae"
Have a great weekend everyone, second thing. I’m a Mexican 65 yrs older and since I was 17 , this is a really Respectable Tradition and wonderful music From that side of the world. Thanks again for all your culture.! 👍👍✅
my gr. uncle was with the royal highlanders or Blackwatch that stormed Vimy Ridge in 1917..last war they wore kilts..Germans called them..Ladies from Hell..
My grandfather was in the Canadian Expositionary Force and fought at Vimy Ridge. He took out a sniper but later was wounded. All the men in his unit were killed in action except for him and one other soldier. He was sent back to London to recuperate from a hip injury that remained with him the rest of his life. He met King George while there. He told me the first two lines of barbed wire were difficult but the by the time you got to the third line of barbed wire that was where the machine guns were and they suffered terrific losses. Our ancestors were highland Scots from Colonsay, Scotland. His father still spoke Gaelic. My father also fought at D Day. Scotland the Brave!
My great, great uncle was a Captain Welsh of the Scottish border regiment in the first World War he led his men over the top and was killed. Never found his body. His batman saw him fall, but in the melee he was lost. There is talk of him being buried in the tomb in a church in France of the unknown officer, as he was the only one that was not found out of the officers.
An old US Marine here. I am proudly descended from Scots. Even though my ancestors fought against the Black Watch in The Revolution, these guys are true soldiers.
My father was black watch they never accepted any battle honors fighting against kith or kin in America, There is no honor in killing fellow countryman regardless who it was for FYI .
God Bless You all, and THANK YOU for serving with us, around us, and having our backs in so many times and places around the globe - a retired USAF Desert Storm and Afghanistan SNCO - GOD BLESS SCOTLAND !!!
My Father In Law was in the Army in Europe during WW II and he told me of the day The Black Watch marched by his unit; all in perfect step, all of their weapons in perfect alignment. He described it with awe in his voice, I could see it in my mind's eye. Good on ya me Boyos, damn proud of you and your tradition.
I don't think I would want to face these guys in battle. Scots are traditionally fierce warriors. Besides, if I was facing them and I heard those pipes coming toward me it would scare the holy carp out of me. Hats off. You guys rock!
@@mattharris6125 Yeah. It's comforting to know that there are bad ass good guys like this in the world. As an American I respect the hell out of these guys. Especially when they play Scotland The Brave. Brings a tear.
If you ever get the chance visit the Canadian cemetery/ memorial at Vimy Ridge, France. It is so sad and inspiring at the same time. The memorial is truly epic without glorifying war in any way. I am a grown man, I shed a tear.
Aye that’s OOR laddies and that wee Shetland pony…makes me proud to be Scots my dad was Black Watch ..Burma..another time another story …Thank you lads you do your country proud🇬🇧🌈👍
@@user-yq3fz9ch5q it is an address he made on the white house lawn to the Scottish Black Watch, . A few days before he was shot in Dallas. There is a video of his address to them. Also at his funeral they played the mist covered mountains of home. Also.on video.
I am so proud to have Scots in my ancestry. Pipes and drums speak to me, they bring joyous tears. This homecoming is done with spectacular precision and grace. Glorious Scotland!
Makes me proud to be Scottish. I'd imagine this would have been heard on many a battle field in many a century! A piper was present even at the Alamo. Run shivers down the enemies spine. NO surrender! 🏴
When the British came ashore at Normandy the German's knew they were in a world of hurt when they heard the pipes. It terrified them. This is well documented.
This video has just come onto my feed, saved and will be played again. My grandparents and my husbands father were Scottish, emigrated to New Zealand, we now live in Australia, but you cannot take the Scottish heritage or music away from us. Thank you for this video, and the chaps who make us proud, no matter where you are living.
My father was Quartermaster Sergeant in the Black Watch during WW2, a piper played at his funeral. God bless all in the armed forces that keep us safe.
Alright. I really appreciated the skill of the pipers & how tight the snare drums were, and I marveled at how consistent the bass drummer was, as well as his insistence on tempo when he felt things lagging. But having been a Marine musician in an Air Wing band, MEF band & base band, I know that our tradition is no one, and I mean absolutely no one breaks our ranks, so when I saw folks filming and going through he band I got so stressed I had to stop. How a drummer didn't take one out I haven't a clue - I was trying to and I haven't played in a parade in almost 40 years. Well done! Made a fellow musician, now disabled and barely able to walk, sit proud.
Effn disgraceful.. The UK marches have security that wouldve stopped that straight away! Pity I wasnt there then, he wouldve got one all mighty collar yank! ;)))
Also note this video is not the original tempo. ? If you have enough concentration like I did with marching band you would be able to control yourself and just know that would happen.
I'm an American and I feel just as patriotic as any Brit. Maybe my grandmother being born there has something to do with it. Maybe the brave Brits fighting with great unending courage during WW2 has a lot to do with it. Love bagpipes. Love Brits.
Absolute impossible in Germany! When the german soldiers returned from Afghanistan there was no parade, no greetings from politicians (chancellor or defense minister), no applause or anything like that. They got off the plane and took a taxi home.That was all. Great video and may the gods bless Scotland.
@@frederickgates4349 That is also impossible because we lost the war. The whole world would think there were a new Coup D‘Etat of Nazis in Germany. Military and economic problems with EU and US were the consequences. Germany would be fucked.
Maybe the German Legion of Napoleonic times should reform...or do as many seasoned NCO, s from the Republic of Ireland are doing ( have done for generations) ...and take the Queen's shilling and join the British army....
Arizona watching. Nothing anywhere in the world can compare to the smartness of Scottish military marching pipes. Kudos to Jim Ramsay (I assume) for moving along with the video for 20 minutes. Outstanding!
Well that's how it should be done all over the UK by the different regiments. Thank you for serving and protecting. Love the tradition. It brings about strong feelings of unity and being proud of those willing to serve their country.

@@janetross8601 Jealous enemies the Scots have alway's been the show stealers even in War.During ww1 the Scots went into the fight pipes blaring with the kilts swirling no other regiments got a look in and many resented the attention they got esp off the ladies.This is in the old Encyclopedias called a pictorial history of the Great war i had one from 1916 and it had a story of this jealous resentment so it can be checked the book has Britannia on the front and still be bought on the internet .
This is it boys! Lay it all on the line for us all & show the World who are ancestry is all about & for us to claim our freedoms back! Scotland 🏴 forever 💜
Your ancestry? have you seen what Sturgeons done to that in the past couple of years? She's a liberal fanatic opening the doors to the whole wide world. She's also just introduced the subject of 'white privelege' into the Scottish curriculum where 5 year olds will be brainwashed into believing their ancestors were butchers and maniacs. Pay attention to her actions, not the words she uses during the election campaign. Those words are just to keep her in power and she's no intention of fulfilling them.
@@andrewmccloud8581 I am sorry Mr McCloud, I got that all wrong. Someone one else made a comment which made me dig to what side I was really on. 🙃I spoke before I kind of knew the truth after making that comment. I never meant to offend our roots that go back to Scotland with my family. Our family is from the James Wallace ancestry. A lot of people will soon find out the truth.

They not only walked through when they marched through dundee the hoodies drug addicts were laughing and spitting.these men and boys in the black watch had been up early standing in freezing cold ready to march.yet these lots get more money than them put them IN THE ARMY THEN MAYBE THEY WILL COME OUT AS MEN. Instead of pampering them with Grant's benifits so they can stick up thier nose.scotland uk
no matter what it's the sound of the pipes and drums I'll always be proud to be Scottish born and raised and born in Scotland nothing can take this away from us no one.! ❤💋
Love it!! The stoic march, the uniformity. The overall cadence….. and then that one single time looking to the right to pay respect and homage for the ones before them…. Gets me everytime
I'm an American Scot and a "Covenanter". My branch of the Thompson family came to these shores in 1720. As a piper and past president of the local St. Andrews Society, I proudly embrace my heritage. Thank you for posting this video.
I love watching these bands marching this was a great performance, very high quality and entertaining. Should have been more people watching them and I noted not many 20' somethings there watching.
Very stirring. The Black Watch tartin was my school uniform and has a interesting history. Love the pony. Marching, playing an instrument and avoided idiots with videos. Pretty impressive. Hi from Australia 🐨
Love and admire the Jock Regts- so much colour, character and elan about them. The Scots have a long established, and hard won reputation as superb fighting soldiers. They are stoical, extremely tough and durable with terrific spirit. Best infantry soldiers in the world. It's no accident that there are plenty of Jocks in both Para Regt and the SAS- the cream always rises. During WW2, the British infantry division that the Germans feared most was the 51st Highland Div- reformed and rebuilt after being captured in France in 1940. During the Normandy campaign, the German's ensured that they placed an elite SS division in front of the 51st to prevent them breaking into the German defensive lines and causing havoc. It's documented in Wehrmacht archives- Fritz was extremely wary of the 51st. Great work by the P's & D's, good drill, great parade- superb effort by The Black Watch. I have a soft spot for The Watch. I was on a course in Vimy Lines, Catterick in 1996 along with lads from the Black Watch TA battalion. They were superb blokes and great to get on with, Barry, John and Gregor- Halcyon days! Hearing, 'Glendaruel Highlanders,' the regimental march of the now defunct Liverpool Scottish Regt (TA) was a major highlight from a personal perspective. Very well done boys- proud of you all. *RESPECT* from England!
I Truly love how the Regimental pensioners are always invited to parade with the active duty section in these ceremonies. Here it's more like "Thanks for your service, you're done. Don't let the door knob smack you in the ass on your way out, And please shut the door securely."
Absolutely fantastic! I still remember getting to jointly play with my brass band and the local regiment bagpipes in my part of Canada. I could not even hear my horn-could only tell I was making sound from the vibration on my bell hand-and just enjoyed every second. To be clear, it kicked a** and was a musical highlight! I’d love to learn bagpipes too.
thanks for this video - nice town, music is fantastic - like Scotland and the tradicion that they keeps and special this music that make my heart strong beating !!! loving from Serbia!
A few years ago well many i saw a parade in Buckie loved it and lucky enough to live near Windsor now and see this every other day but you can't beat the pipes and drums

He had a fixation on the band
I appreciate being able to watch this video and therefore thankful for the man who made it. Lovely to watch. Enjoyed every minute of it.
Every war horse that ever lived is like, man that pony has it so easy haha. Little late but welcome home 3 SCOTS.
Brought a tear to these tired old eyes, God bless you all.
God Bless you too
Always loved Scotland. It's in your heart
Hits the Heart every time! Scotland the brave! ❤️
Nothing stirs the soul like martial music! Slava Scotland!
I’m lost for words. Absolutely brilliant.
Totally love for the music. Jim&Margie
Best advert ever for the UK and Scotland's Army.
BRITISH ARMY PLEASE
Admirable soldiers and tradition! I love it. Many greetings from Berlin!
I loved my time in Berlin. We (5th Royal Inniskilling Dragoon Guards) were stationed next to Spandau prison, and its lone resident.
@@peterking2651 who's the lone resedent?
@@jeanettereynolds3151 it was Rufolf Hess i think. He flew over to England in the beginning of WWII.
German - Swiss American here! I have a little bit of Scottish blood- Clan WALLACE, the very PROGRESSIVE Branch! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🇩🇪🇨🇭🇺🇲💙. 🏴
In the 70s I used to hang with the Black Watch in Seoul South Korea. Great guys. My job was to teach them how to bowl.
And in battledress....I am in tears.
I dont care if you hate bagpipes, there is no music sweeter than pipes and drums
What a super Proud Division!
With best regards from Germany!
Hi from Uruguay! Love this and glad that they came back home♥
Amazing to watch, I love Bagpipes, And drums, this was moving and beautiful!
The 2 officers also looked f ing cool during the Respect to the Veterans during "Eye's Right".
Absolutely love bagpipes send a shiver down my spine
Jenny l wonder why 47 people have 👎down for those videos why would they do that l don't understand this unless their no part of Scotland.;:)
Quite agree...stirs the soul...peace and love from the wirral...E
@@janetross8601 a namesake Anne Ross ,a Limavady woman had the presence of mind to write down a tune played on the pipes by a local O, Cahan itinerant piper...thankfully saving for posterity the ( London ) Derry air...aka Danny boy ...must be something in the Ross blood...best wishes from the wirral
@@eamonnclabby7067 Thankyou so much for your reply l appreciate it best wishes to you to. ;:-)
@@janetross8601 Jealous enemies the Scots have alway's been the show stealers even in War.During ww1 the Scots went into the fight pipes blaring with the kilts swirling no other regiments got a look in and many resented the attention they got esp off the ladies.This is in the old Encyclopedias called a pictorial history of the Great war i had one from 1916 and it had a story of this jealous resentment so it can be checked the book has Britannia on the front and still be bought on the internet .
This is it boys! Lay it all on the line for us all & show the World who are ancestry is all about & for us to claim our freedoms back! Scotland 🏴 forever 💜
Aye laddie nothing like the British Army to stir the blood
Your ancestry? have you seen what Sturgeons done to that in the past couple of years? She's a liberal fanatic opening the doors to the whole wide world. She's also just introduced the subject of 'white privelege' into the Scottish curriculum where 5 year olds will be brainwashed into believing their ancestors were butchers and maniacs. Pay attention to her actions, not the words she uses during the election campaign. Those words are just to keep her in power and she's no intention of fulfilling them.
@@cmcc3721 ok I got it all wrong that’s why they had the Mickey Mouse & all the kids! 😱My bad! Thank you & so sorry🧎♂️
@@darlenewilson136 The Black Watch is a voluntary force. Do you think that Scots who join the British Army are for "claiming their freedoms back"?
@@andrewmccloud8581 I am sorry Mr McCloud, I got that all wrong. Someone one else made a comment which made me dig to what side I was really on. 🙃I spoke before I kind of knew the truth after making that comment. I never meant to offend our roots that go back to Scotland with my family. Our family is from the James Wallace ancestry. A lot of people will soon find out the truth. Whoa, learning & digging after I realized my error really got my eyes opened. May the a lord always shine upon you, your family & Scotland!💜
My husband's Father was Black Watch, and a hard man from all reports. Always send the Scots in first!
My Grandfather was a member of the Black Watch, a very long time ago.
A THING OF BEAUTY AND PRIDE!! I LOVE IT!
I am getting Goosebumps of this.. greetings from Germany
Listen wee Jimmy there playing our tune bash big base drum 🥁 welcome back lads and lasses. You do our nation proud Bravo Zulu on the parade 👏👏👏👏
AH the Former 22nd Highland Regement . The Late Queen Mother's Regiment. Being a Former Soldier myself of 30 years Proud Service I SALUTE YOU AND THANKYOU FOR YOUR SEVICE.
Wherever they are, these are the best soldiers & representatives of grace & civil behavior. Thank you.
Nothing annoys me more than folk who walk in amongst the parade….
They not only walked through when they marched through dundee the hoodies drug addicts were laughing and spitting.these men and boys in the black watch had been up early standing in freezing cold ready to march.yet these lots get more money than them put them IN THE ARMY THEN MAYBE THEY WILL COME OUT AS MEN. Instead of pampering them with Grant's benifits so they can stick up thier nose.scotland uk
Respecte l écosse and france . Bretagne Okimercii. Grrr.
You too? That was one of my first thoughts.
no matter what it's the sound of the pipes and drums I'll always be proud to be Scottish born and raised and born in Scotland nothing can take this away from us no one.! ❤💋
100% AGREE WITH YA .. Also gets on ma TITS !!!!!!
Had the honor of meeting some of these fine soldiers. We were all far from home. God bless these men. Godspeed to the rest deployed. Carry on.
Saw you guys in London. Cannot be prouder to see Scotland, Ireland, Wales and England together. 🦊🦊🦊🦊
Respect from an Aussie born of Scotish parents....
This is amazing. Thank you from the mother of a veteran
Love it!! The stoic march, the uniformity. The overall cadence….. and then that one single time looking to the right to pay respect and homage for the ones before them…. Gets me everytime
I'm an American Scot and a "Covenanter". My branch of the Thompson family came to these shores in 1720.
As a piper and past president of the local St. Andrews Society, I proudly embrace my heritage. Thank you for posting this video.
I love watching these bands marching this was a great performance, very high quality and entertaining. Should have been more people
watching them and I noted not many 20' somethings there watching.
Very stirring. The Black Watch tartin was my school uniform and has a interesting history. Love the pony. Marching, playing an instrument and avoided idiots with videos. Pretty impressive. Hi from Australia 🐨
Love and admire the Jock Regts- so much colour, character and elan about them. The Scots have a long established, and hard won reputation as superb fighting soldiers. They are stoical, extremely tough and durable with terrific spirit. Best infantry soldiers in the world. It's no accident that there are plenty of Jocks in both Para Regt and the SAS- the cream always rises. During WW2, the British infantry division that the Germans feared most was the 51st Highland Div- reformed and rebuilt after being captured in France in 1940. During the Normandy campaign, the German's ensured that they placed an elite SS division in front of the 51st to prevent them breaking into the German defensive lines and causing havoc. It's documented in Wehrmacht archives- Fritz was extremely wary of the 51st.
Great work by the P's & D's, good drill, great parade- superb effort by The Black Watch. I have a soft spot for The Watch. I was on a course in Vimy Lines, Catterick in 1996 along with lads from the Black Watch TA battalion. They were superb blokes and great to get on with, Barry, John and Gregor- Halcyon days! Hearing, 'Glendaruel Highlanders,' the regimental march of the now defunct Liverpool Scottish Regt (TA) was a major highlight from a personal perspective. Very well done boys- proud of you all. *RESPECT* from England!
I Truly love how the Regimental pensioners are always invited to parade with the active duty section in these ceremonies. Here it's more like "Thanks for your service, you're done. Don't let the door knob smack you in the ass on your way out, And please shut the door securely."
I served with a couple Black Watch brothers inYemem they are Badass!
The British took a bagpipe and did the small music.. Never forget the large music. And tune and tone on.this video was exemplary.
Absolutely fantastic! I still remember getting to jointly play with my brass band and the local regiment bagpipes in my part of Canada. I could not even hear my horn-could only tell I was making sound from the vibration on my bell hand-and just enjoyed every second. To be clear, it kicked a** and was a musical highlight! I’d love to learn bagpipes too.
Glorious sound glorious regiment . Bags of swank God bless them
Excellent …love being of Scottish decent ,my grandfather coming to Australia from Edinburgh in 1926
You’re one of us then x
Very nice tradition. I wish that in Germany the Bundeswehr would be so respected and proud of it.
Pipers and drummers don’t “March “ they swagger justly proud of their heritage
