Queen Elizabeth II: Saluting the Armed Forces' Commander-in-Chief
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
- Queen Elizabeth II, Britain's longest-reigning monarch, has died aged 96.
The Queen's relationship with the Armed Forces was a centrepiece of her reign - a special relationship forged in the dark days of the Second World War, and then, as monarch, front and centre of her duties as Commander-in-Chief.
For 70 years she watched over Britain's three services and all those who served, always honoured to meet them as much as they were honoured to meet their Queen.
Forces News looks back at that special relationship and the legacy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth.

Politicians come and go, but my queen served this country her whole life!
Rip. Elizabeth Regina!
She truly was, basically all of our lives, the eternal Queen. I just still kept imagining she would be with us forever. Realistically for a few more years. I’m not ready to say goodbye, and to think that the Second Elizabethan era, has now come to an end, and we are now in fact on the edge of another. We may now have a king, but in my heart, and so many of ours, for now, Elizabeth is still OUR queen. Goodbye Elizabeth
@@hendrikvandermescht2344 Just be ashamed, those who came before you cetanly are. If you don´t have anything good to say, just bee quiet and start with showing the respect that you demand.
@@BrasilianZombie No respect sorry. You can force me so go and play with your toys or go to the Queen's grave and see if she can help you. No she can't and will become dust
@@BrasilianZombie why should he be ashamed? For having a factual understanding of history instead of been brainwashed by royalist propaganda?
@@hendrikvandermescht2344 she did admit that was the mistake of her life. It’s hard to live 96 years without some mistakes. Let’s not throw stones.
I sit here, a Texan, American, so proud that my country fought and obtained its independence from England so many years ago. Yet, I sit with tears in my eyes and share the grief of my cousins in England over this irreplaceable loss they have today. She has been their monarch from before I was born. I grew up with her just as many of us have.
I am grief-stricken. What a lady. What a Queen. We shall never see the likes of her again.
RIP your Majesty. You were really the Queen of the World.
Your message made me cry. I too am American and proud. But I love our brothers in England and am in just as much grief and overcome with sadness over her loss. HMQE was truly the Queen of the World. She will always be loved and remembered. She is a part of all of us.
We in the U.K. and Commonwealth will never forget how the United States came to our aid to end World War 2. Our Remembrance in November each year extends to all our Allies. 🇺🇸🇬🇧
She met every President from Truman to Biden with the exception of LBJ - famously having troubles with both the Bushes - Senior someone forget the height difference so we got a speech by a hat 14 May 1991, and Junior about her visit in 1776 (when he made she gave him a look a mother gives a child making a blunder)
@@abzzeus 😂😂😂
She, her husband, and King Charles III were and are some of the best friends of the USA.
I'm from India. I watched the tribute till end and the last black and white footage of her made me smile and shed a tear. How difficult it is to lead a country being a women. There is so much to learn from this lady. I can write a few powerful and meaningful words to describe the Queen, but i don't want to do that. Her actions and qualities always spoke about her.
Your presence will be missed madam 🤗
i am from Germany. eating my sandwich and listening to music when i draw russian soldiers kicking british mercenaries in the Ukraine..
@@jefreyjefrey6349 time you left your mother’s back bedroom.
I'm from India too 😅 big fan of her ❤
Rest In Peace to the most beloved monarch in living memory. I mourn for her majesty, we may never see her like again.
The Boss, gave over 70 years of absolute duty & service to her country - simply the best! ♥️ 🌃
Do not be sad, for she is not 'dead', she has only passed into the next room...
Our greatest Queen will live on in the most colourful and vibrant pages of history.
Goodnight Lizzy and God bless you 🙏
The world of equestrian, field shooting gun dogs racing, and the loyalty shown to the forces. So much has been lost with one ilustrious woman. RIP Mam
She was one of the very best of us. This is a great loss for our nation, and the world. Our love her now is solidified, and will never die.
Goodbye Lilibeth
You're serious?
CREEP
God bless you ma’am it was an honour to serve you and thanks for all you did for this country 😞
Rest in Peace, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Since I've been alive I've met one American President, served under two, and witnessed the passing of three. I'm sure I will see many more in my life time.
But this however is a once in a lifetime event and the Kingdom has lost part of its history to time, and much like the passing of Prince Philip, is tremendously saddening to me.
Long Live the Queen, may she rest peacefully.
Such a lovely tribute to the Queen.
I would like to remind anyone who is saddened by the death of "Her Majesty", that she blatantly refused to apologize for the horrors the "precious" United Kingdom committed in the 1899-1902 Anglo-Boer War, including imprisoning people in concentration camps in which 47 thousand civilIan's (27 thousand of whom were Boers) died in agony. Not to mention more recent British atrocities, in the Former Yugoslavia, in Iraq, in Libya and elsewhere:
@@hendrikvandermescht2344 ok but why would she have had to apologise about something that happened in 1899.. she wasn’t that old 😂
@@Lato._ I never said the word apologise. She knew what happened in the past and she refuse to say anything about . Why because she hate the Boers and she knew that the British start apartheid in South Africa and not the Boers
@@hendrikvandermescht2344 get a life dude you act like you were there or even care.
as soon as I finished my shift and got home, I cracked open a bottle of port and raised a glass to the Boss. Rest well your Majesty
Splice the mainbrace - would have been nice to hear the order from her one more time.
To your duties, fall out...RIP boss, your duty is served
Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II. RIP from all your friends in Canada. Gone but not forgotten 🙏❤💐
God Bless her Majesty. RIP. Respect!! Service and duty to the end.🙏🙏🙏🇱🇰🇰🇪🇨🇦
Elizabeth Cross ... A Real class compassionate response to the greatest loss to any parent brother sister or family member who has lost a loved one while serving!! 😔
Rest In Peace, darling Lill'. You've more than earned it, ma'am.

Rest In Peace, Her Majest Queen Elizabeth II. May your soul rest blissfully in eternal peace. Long live the Queen, God save the King.
Rest in peace I am proud to have served you in your Royal Air Force. You will be missed greatly
RIP Ma'am... Proud to have served... You don't owe us a thing... 🏴😔
That was beautiful, thank you.
This is a truly sad moment for our nation and the commonwealth. God bless our Queen wherever she may be.
Queen Elizabeth II more then a Monarch of Britain. She though born into her position portrayed the power in humility and honesty. There are few people who can except and remain fully committed to the position they are giving in life. Queen Elizabeth II I shall always remember as a person who was a straight shooter that maintained a positive aura and an artist in her ability to speak clearly . She had a talent in her abilities to choose the words that seemed designed to address the issues at hand and lead you into a state of calmness and acceptance of the circumstances with readiness to move through the events with a smile of content on your face.
RIP Ma’am. Proud to have served you.
Rest in peace, proud to have served in the navy for her, a true lady.
God bless my lovely Queen. A part of my life for over 66 years. Ex RN.
God rest the Queen, long live the King!

What a fantastic tribute. Well done.
Im not a royalist in any way, RIP Elizabeth. She has had quite the life, deserves, respect and all the praise being given.
Nope, no she doesn’t. Commander In Chief of forces guilty of war crimes.

Such a sad moment in time RIP Your Majesty Queen Elizabeth ll. My sincere condolences to the Royal Family. And to all the people around the world who have lost their Queen.
Very well presented. I wish our "Commanders-in-Chief" shared her respect for and appreciation of their U.S. Military. God save the Queen. R.I.P., Ma'am.
I... swear by Almighty God that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Her Heirs and Successors, and that I will, as in duty bound, honestly and faithfully defend Her Majesty, Her Heirs and Successors, in Person, Crown and Dignity against all enemies, and will observe and obey all orders of Her Majesty, Her Heirs and Successors, and of the generals and officers set over me..

No our taxes saved her and made them all Billionaires .....MADNESS
@@Bereadyalways123 they receive £40 million from taxes and in turn the government get well over £200 million from their land and property etc and also bring in hundreds of billions from tourists. so yeah they take tax payers money but they also keep taxes wayyyy down. also the most a single person pats towards that £40 million is just like £2.50 or something small so it’s not exactly an issue
Utterly superb.. the montage at the end was absolutely perfect

RIP 🕯
That was so beautiful.
As she was at the beginning, so she remained until the end.
RIP Ma'am
may she rest in peace after a long and eventful life. She will be missed.
Her Majesty is now leading the troops from the great parade square in the sky.
My heart 💔 goes out to the family of Queen 👑 Elizabeth.

Thank you for being our Queen and my Boss for my 8 years Army service. I know you will never be forgotten by us as you served us with flying colours.
God Save Our Beautiful Queen.
Greatest monarch in modern history
You mean the richest Monarch in history nice work if to can get it ..MADNESS..

Rest in eternal peace your majesty. It has been an honour to serve under your command.
God save the king
Thank you, for everything- Paddington Bear.
I am an American that lived in England. I had frequented the Hitchen boxing club. The Queen had, as I understand, officiated the Hitchen boxing club. Hitchen was at the time economically disadvantaged. A beautiful and honorable thing to do.
I feel so sad alone. I only know one queen

It's history, get over it. I live in Germany, I don't blame the current generations to constantly apologize for the wars, I don't blame the French for Napoleon or the Italians for Rome, nor do I constantly bang on about the British settlers killed by the Boer. And although Britain played a large part in the slave trade and colonialism so did France, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Germany, Holland, Belgium etc etc etc etc. The list is damn near endless. But it was only England that tried to right those wrongs, in 1812 we went to war with the slave trade, we freed slaves from shipping belonging to Portugal Spain and America among others while south Africa damn near kept the same order of things till the 1980s under apparteid, so don't lecture Britain.W⚓
God bless the queen and rest in peace are queen did your duty to the end and God save king Charles|||
God bless the Queen!!!
In my formative years, always being in the knowledge of the fact that I had an uncle, my father's only brother living in the UK, meant that I came into contact with certain round coins, adorning the pristine, emaculate and intricate portraiture of Her Majesty the Queen's head. The pound coin (then round) in particular, felt heavy and I would pick it up, as a boy, thriving in the humid life force, nestling amidst the tropical breeze of Bangladesh, and wonder, about a land far away, on the other end of seven oceans and thirteen rivers. A land that had a Queen. To me, that was the United Kingdom that I knew, romanticised and pictured in my mind. A land of possibilities and opportunity, of freedom and prosperity, a land that produces men and women who are known not just for their money, but also for the kindness of their hearts. A land of the good and the great. The Queen was certainly one of them. Many years later, I find myself living in that land of dreams. Amidst the trials and tribulations of life, that dream can sometimes go blurry and start to gather dust under many a machinations of life's manuscripts. The Queen's loss has renewed that romance, that initial love I felt for this land, far away in another corner of the world. It could only have been made possible by the history and legacy that Her Majesty inherited and in turn bestowed upon all, even to me, not knowing how much her presence felt to me and my family. My mother today recalls going to the airport in my hometown of Sylhet, Bangladesh as a schoolgirl in 1983, to get a chance to see Her Majesty visiting. That brought home the extent of this loss and what it meant for many around the world, known and unknown. She was certainly not a prophet, or a politician. She was a symbol of hope and a sense of belonging, that transcended many generations, weaving together history and epochs like a well crafted quilt that brought people of many creeds and cultures together who had all but one thing in common, The Queen.
Absolutely beautiful 😪
Thank you
She really do her duty...100%. Thank you to Her Majesty QE II RIP.
Gob Bless you Mam you will forever be blessed and remembered .... we will never see you likes again.....
God Save The King
So very well done. Thank you.
Her dedication to her Country and its armed forces. The great compassion she had and care for all was outstanding. Her Faith as a Christian who prayed daily and knew her Lord Jesus in a very personal way was very beautiful to see. She expressed her belief in many ways but none as much as in her message to her people every Christmas Day. She said that she could not have been able to Reign as she had without Jesus Christ as her foundation and was rather amazed that not all Christians prayed daily and meditated on the Holy Scriptures.
She was Commander in Chief of the Armed forces and Defender of THE Faith.
King Charles III has big shoes to fill in regards to defending the Faith. He said he wants to say on Coronation Day, "Defender of Faith". I feel it changes what he wants to say. Changes the fact he, as King, will not make a stand for the Church of England, and wants all faiths, IE: saying defender of Faith. His mother Queen Elizabeth II took her vows at the Coronation seriously and never wavered on those vows. King Charles III seems to have missed the target of what his role is as Monarch. Please, you Majesty I believe you are going down a road to nowhere by changing this one vow. You are to be crowned King and head of the Church of England and Defender of THE Faith!!💔🙏🇬🇧
I heard a story on Mike Tindall's rugby podcast. For those who don't know he is married to the Queens granddaughter, Mike was talking to an officer helping to plan the Queens funeral, they had realised that the plan that was planed to pick her coffin up wasn't really big enough to allow the pallbearers to load the coffin with dignity, so the officer sent a message to the queen suggesting using a bigger plane and suggested the one that was used, this plan had been used to repatriate the bodies of our dead troops, the message that came back from the Queen was "if it's good enough for my boys it's good enough for me" I hope this story is true and i don't know any reason it wouldn't be.
Rest in Peace.
The queen is dead!,long live the king!
She was one of a kind,condolences from your neighbors across the north sea that served with you in Afghanistan.
In many respects she felt like my queen as well,same family of our own monarch.
R.I.P.
Thank You.
most beloved monarch no more. pray to God for rest in peace.
That video clip of her playing a game on the ships deck always surprises me when she funky body checks that other lass to try and get a win.
Thank you
I choked up at the end. 😭
God Rest The Queen.
God Bless...the Queen.
God Save...the King.
In the years to come....if darkness gathers....'Regnum Defende'.
