Cool 👍🌹🍬😃
Thank you Scotland, England, America, Australie, Canada and the unknow, you give´s your sons for our freedom. let´s never forget..
Greetings from a Dutchman.
My late father always wanted a piper at his funeral, He died suddenly last week after 38 years of Military/ Police duty, He was an amazing man and there was not a dry eye in the whole funeral home when they played amazing grace and this song... A wonderful tribute for a Great Grandfather, Father, Husband and, Friend... Mark Konwicki 1958- 2013.... Stay close to us dad...
My condolences on the loss of your dad
I can so identify. You did your dad right. My family is very proud of our Scottish roots. At my fathers funeral I arranged for a piper. As a marine presented the flag to my mother the piper played the Marine Hymn and the Amazing Grace. My pop would have been delighted.
I burst with pride knowing my dad took part , 06/06/44. Rip my dear dad. Also most of the men landing on dday where British. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Mist covered mountains... my Grandfather served in Normandy, Arnhem and Germany... a proud Pole who lived his life in Douglas after the war. Truly stirring stuff. When the cavalry was formed in Scotland a vast number of Polish soldiers were sent to Edinburgh to become pipers.
🙏🏽💔🙏🏻
As a pipe band sidedrummer myself, I can tell you that the two tunes being played here are: "My Home" and "The Mist Covered Mountains". I have played these many times in various pipe bands at funerals and remembrance parades.
Excellent stirring stuff, love it !.
Thank you for this video. The Dutch people have never forgotten those that gave their lives to give my fellow countryman their freedom. The survivors are treated with nothing but the deepest respect and gratitude. They have certainly mine as without them I most certainly would not be here today. My late parents were both from Arnhem.
My late uncle the paratrooper died at Arnhem.
erinundra
My uncle also he survived and spent his days in Rhodesia
My grandfather survived Dunkirk and D-Day and the only thing he would ever tell us was that they never stopped thinking about the suffering going on across the channel, it was all worth it and he would do it again in a heartbeat....We don’t produce people of this nature anymore, the were the generation of legends and they will never be forgotten 💙💯
Ver boven de sterre is left
Ver boven de sterre
Magnificent! My grandfather served with the black watch WW1 and came home to tell.
A wonderful tribute to the fallen. Their memory liveth forever.
Great video, and It's worthy of mentioning that the camera man should be applauded for running along with the Pipers to keep the sound even. Nice Job!!!
Thanks Skyejenx - It was a most moving ceremony. i was down at the lower level and the sound of the approaching pipes and sonorous bass drum was incredibly emotive and solemn - well done to all involved.
Thanks for posting. There are never enough bagpipes.
GOD bless SCOTLAND. This gives me goosebumbs. Justice after more than sixty years. My they REST IN PEACE and rise in glory....
This march is so powerful ,my amazing Grandfather fought in Arnhem and wow watching this has brought a tear to my eye we will never forget those who fought for us to live the way we can today . All in the great war and world war 2 will always be heroes and should never be forgoten . RIP . Grandad you were one amazing man
I had the very great honor and privilege to stand on Arnhem bridge in 2005 at the 60th anniversary of the liberation of Holland, as well as to participate in many parades that were part of that event. I was deeply moved by the appreciation shown by the people of Holland toward my fellow Canadian soldiers and me. Lovely country with many lovely people. :)
Yes , they STILL appreciate the sacrifice of those attempting to liberate them from the horrendous conditions of near starvation imposed on them by the Nazis. I think they always will. Memories of those terrible, terrible years are etched in their minds and handed down to younger generations. If we forget the past we are vulnerable to them being repeated.
First of all, you are quite welcome, sir! A small correction though, Holland are 2 provinces, like Saskatchewan and Manitoba in Canada. The correct name will be The Netherlands.
I’ve been to remembrance for 4 years now and my love for those who died in the war made me because so loved by the Wales nation and I was just 15 at the time, I’m 20 years old now and still remain so loved
God i love the old veterans . They gave so much for people they didn't even know . Respect !!
For all the brave men who fell,we came back for ye,RIP.
God bless Scotland The Red Devils. My deceased husband was in The 101st Airborne and helped The Red Devils Evacuate at Arnhem. Long live The Scotts
Awesome, Fantastic, Big cheers, love the pipes especially when massed
Yes, I read the story of John Frost and his men. We can't imagine what a big fight it was. That he survived was a miracle indeed. I'm glad the Dutch gouvernment honoured him with the name of the bridge. Ofcourse, many men died that days but..every year on the 4th of may we remember them and al the fallen of this cruel worldwar.
It's so so beautiful.... 😭
Simply outstanding, hairs on my arms are standing up watching this
Thank you and had the highest recognition for the determination and courage to all the proud men and women of the Allied forces that liberated Germany from the terror and thereby lose their lives
Yes I am a Dutchman and thank you for your answer about Alex Salmond. Never heard about him but I do'nt like politics. You must know that we (Dutch people) never will forget what the British, Canadian, American and all the other soldiers have done for us in ww 2.
Proud to say I was there that night. God bless the heroes.
What a lovely way to remember those that died.
Thank you Arnhem. Faithful to the memory of those brave,brave boys .As ever. God bless you.
Awesome video and awesome sound well done
Absolute Spitze diese Musik und die Präsentation,....einfach ein Gedicht. Ich habe immer davon geträumt, als Veranstalter in einer besonderen Arena so etwas zu machen.
Ganz viel Erfolg weiterhin.......Willi
The bridge is named after Major-General John Dutton Frost (1912-1993), who commanded the British forces that reached and defended the bridge during the Battle of Arnhem in September 1944. The German forces in Arnhem eventually overwhelmed Frost's men, although this took several days. They had however succeeded in closing the bridge to German armour for some four days, twice as long as a whole division was expected to hold the bridge.
Hi
For all those who offer their Youth to fight for a War they never started and Die in a land not of their own for Freedom of others....We Heartily remember...Salute...
Flowers of the Forest is always achingly sad - a perfect tune to these occasions.
Those brave men who continued to fight-on, despite such odds. War makes heroes of the ordinary...how tragic it should be so.
Indrukwekkend en kippenvel. Ik heb erg veel gelezen, gezien over het Britse deel van Market Garden en deze muziek geeft precies de juiste toon aan met betrekking tot heldenmoed, mislukking, verdriet en en even stil blijven staan bij deze slag.
I am impressed by the bagpipes and drums. It indicates for me the right tone and emotion of heroism, fiasco, sorrow and standing still to the fight of the 1st British Airborne Corps of Market Garden
2nd comment on this video, but have been impressed every time I watch it. Take notice of the guy at 3:53 throwing a hand salute to the band on passing. Wish we had more people like that coming up through the ranks these days.. Great video...
I was playing there as a Bass Drummer of the Kernow pipes and drums band.
Excellent group, and very good recording as well.
Love this tune, known in scots gaelic as 'Chi mi na mor-bheanna or in english as the 'Mist covered Mountains' also referred to as 'The mist covered mountains of home'
i saw this bridge. i walked on it. eternal life for the parachutists that gave their lives for me to live in a free world
The single piece 'kilt' to the waist was an innovation of a North country English businessman Thomas Rawlinson, It also permitted the Highland garb to be adapted for the British Army, as they could fight in it. The Highland 'toga style blanket was too thick and heavy. They had to often take it off, down to their shirt when fighting. UNITY BUILDS STRENGTH.
I'm a Scot, but too many of my countrymen learn their history from Hollywood - it's more romantically, and colourfully portrayed.
First tune is "My home in the hills", second one is "Misty covered mountains"
I am 1/4 Scottish and love the bagpipes. "Mist Covered Mountains" is my favorite, though I pretty much like all of them.
Same as played at the queen mother's funeral
Makes the hairs on my whole body stand up. Also crying with pride.
The bag pipes are so COOL
The world's greatest generation of men and women .
Absolutely
Absolutely. Well Said.
my dad would have been in the battle in Holland,but he was shot in Sicily,I grew up listening to pipes and drums music, because of regiment all my family all been in it,even Holland got permission to start pipes and drum band name after my regiment,48 th Highlanders of Canada, pipe band Holland has is called 48 th Highlanders of Holland
As a vet, I would say that once you were 'there' (in action) you were too caught up in the fight to think straight - that is about why you were there.
It is how you come to be there that divides. Were you conscripted, did you volunteer for excitement, because your mates were enlisting, or because it was a job that payed and took care of you - many reasons. Maybe when you joined there was no war - you just got caught up in one. mostly you fought to stay alive.
. Clans were tribesmen
Thank you for this fantastic performance in Arnhem 2009.
To all the heroes of Arnhem--------------thank you
+Chas. Baird my old man came home on leave from the Andrew and his old sergeant from the Home guard told him his boy who was in the paras had been killed at Arnhem and it had broken his heart, the next time he came home he found out the old boy had passed away as well
ap72sentinal No, you're just another fucking keyboard tough guy with the back bone of a pissing worm.
Its easy to give it all the bunny from your safe little bedroom now go play with your XBox you silly little child
ap72sentinal dumb yankee kid
+Chas. Baird Yes Indeed I remember the 16th paras from later on and I wept when on the radio I heard a broadcast from the battle front
we were all devastated and wanted to get to them by what ever means and we were just kids then.
Chas. Bai
I thank you for that information..I never knew that, but it makes perfect sense. I would like to see that in person some day. Thanks again.
Very moving, well done!
What more can you say Fantastic so proud to be Scottish.
can you tell me what the name of this march is?
From Scotland to the world x
Excellent March
The titles are, "My Ain Hoose" (My Own House) and "The Mist Covered Mountains".
Im Polish. My Grandfather was there with Sosabowski Army! Im so Proud of him!
Im a Piper And I was playing there. The Polish Army was fighting in all over the World for freedom but after WWII they sold Us to F....ing Stalin!
my grandmother came from Poland, her family fled as the Germans advanced but she would tell of the men in her family who fought back. wish I knew more.
I'm Scots and that was the most shameful thing. Why did we fight at all if it just meant giving Poland to someone worse than Hitler cos be in no doubt he killed more than Hitler.
yeah...raw deal...i thank your granfather for his service...from America
lukaszpiper Stalin wouldn't liberate Poland unless we agreed to let him put a puppet government in place and we needed to please the Russians because we couldn't afford to lose there alliance during the war
@@keithmuir5077 Because, We the Allies hadn't finished with Japan. Most of the Western Armies wanted America and even the Germans to turn round and head to Moscow. Churchill advocated that, but America didn't want to due to containing war with Japan. IF we had played it correctly, the Allies could have had Japan take more of China and Eastern Russia, while backing out of Indonesia & Korea, with France, UK, USA etc in Western Russia. World would be a very different place now.
Makes me proud to be British.
@Artemis Pyle No it’s not, the Royal Marines band are amongst them too. Stop trying to score points and just enjoy the parade.
@Artemis Pyle You are an idiot!
Goosebumps, awesome.
RESPECT for the Bands!!!
Thanks, it makes it complete!
Actually, for the Highlanders, it was the 'caps' (bonnets) that clansmen would wear that helped to identify them in battle - which were mostly with other clans.
They did not have clan tartans - they are a later invention, and they took their 'garb' off in a fight - far too cumbersome and restricting. They fought in their long shirts. But in a real 'mix-up' battle, their heads, and consequently, bonnet, could be seen - usually with a cockade, or distinctive feather.
Ever thought that she may have had a relative involved in Operation Market Garden so was there for him?
Nothing wrong in showing the flag of your country, or even a region of your country.
My grandfather was in the 11th hussars as a sergeant United kingdom finished his service in South Africa September 1942
Many have said that marching into battle and fighting with the drone of the pipes, makes you feel invincible. In WWII Lord Lovatts commandos where played into battle at Normandy by Bill Millin (RIP). You can hear why!
Im English but by God I love the Scottish Pipe Bands. And I remember Arnhem
Amazing, breathtaking beautiful!!
what a beautifull tribute
Sorry Holland. My maternal uncle was a paratrooper at Arnhem and I know he tried as hard as fuck to liberate you but it was, literally, a bridge too far. Still, you're an utterly brilliant country. Love and kisses from Scotland.
Wonderful!
The Scottish Soldiers have fought and died for freedom all over the World, thanks guys.
Arnhen 1972 wonders if the deeds of Airborne Division will ever be forgotten, I can assure him that the Dutch will never forget what happened at Arnheim and the sacrifice that those men made for freedom.
Lest we will forget!
Wonder how many of the spectators remembered those Days becauce they lived in the area in 1944. I suspect many of the elderly. Bagpipes done right is wonderfull to listen to.
Stunning...
The entire world can thank the good old Scots English Irish & Welsh lads who made up the magnificent BRITISH ARMY of WWII. for fighting for freedom across all theatres of the conflict !!!!
RULE BRITANNIA - GSTQ
Such a shame the world especially Europe cannot recall and respect the sacrifice of the Commonwealth and Polish soldiers who gave their lives for our freedom... also never forget the loss of civilian lives in this conflict ... and for what??
@Artemis Pyle .........Artemis Pyle of dog shit........... you can only mouth off on here safe behind your pc screen due to the freedom all those brave brave British boys who sacrificed their lives for your worthless 50 stone doughnut scoffing all day - 45 year old still live at home with Momma virgin gob shite self...
Brave boys ! R.I.P.
het indrukwekkenste wat ik ooit gezien heb en het mooiste 1 woord wooooooooow
@tolletje298 These TUNES are " My Home" and "The Mist Covered Mountains"
Today's kilt and body plaid (pronounced "played") derive from a single piece of Tartan fabric, that was originally a clansman's bedroll. Came the dawn, a man could rise up, take his "blanket", wrap it around his waist, throw the excess over his left shoulder, pin the "kilt" with a single pin, put on his belt, and his shoes (if he had them), and he way essential ready to take up his weapon and head into battle. In due course, this uniform became ceremonial but, having worn it, it's iconic!
just amazing
By Alemain the 51 Highland Division pipers were not supposed to play in combat. But my dad who was a combat sapper lifting mines by bayonet before H hour heard the pipes start and escort the Jocks through the front lines. Proud to be a Scot and British
Brave brave men rip to the fallen gone but not forgotten.
The tunes are actually, "The Mist-Covered Mountains" and "My Home".
RIP the lost of both sides, doing what you where ordered to do.
Remember all the brave young men
Many thanks Joe.
Superb.
Glorious.
Bravery alone cannot win battles... Proper intelligence along with a command structure that can take advantage of that intelligence is what's needed...
No shit.
beautiful...
it is a great musikshow
if heaven truly exist,and if i will be so lucky to eventually reach it, i would like to have this music to welcome me in there.
Presumably you have read the story of John Frost? A miracle he survived.
Awesome!
"....The Allies were informed by the Dutch Resistance that those were elite SS-troops (with tanks) but they chose to ignore that. Unfortunately, their valuable information was ignored....." Yes, and the Americans were warned about a coming attack on Pearl Harbour.
So often, there are incidents which are deliberately 'allowed' to happen in wars, or cause one (remember 9/11) that cost huge loss of life. In 'Market Garden' there were a number of 'events' intended to cause failure.
Impresionante R.I.P
We must put all wars to sleep and awake those who started them and ask WHY...!
We already know the reasons for wars starting and the need to resist the oppressors.
Mist Covered Mountains of Home

Love from Pakistan ❤
Well, thanks for sharing. Then again only a small percentage of soldiers have combat duties. By far the most are in logistics, support etc. It takes quite a few men to keep 1 man fighting in the field.
Of those in actual combat, only a handful really tried to kill their opponents. Most, let's say 80 percent, were just making noise, keeping their heads down and firing their guns at nothing. Because they didn't want to kill anyone.
That's why they introduced a 'psychokiller' program for Vietnam.
Indeed, and let's not forget that the clan tartans are from the same timeperiod. Before the industrial era, Highlanders would wear whatever color tartan they could make from the natural materials around them. So I guess brown and green and gray would have been typical colors for Highlanders to wear.
Let's not forget that following the Second Battle of Culloden, the power of the original clans was finally broken.
A great lament. So beautiful. But thought it was marched in a slow march, drumheads covered
Can anyone tell me the title of this awsome march.??
