      There was cameras back then in the first world war but they didn't have audio and most of the footage was frame by frame and not every soldier knew what a camera was or were shy from it cause it was a new invention at the time still but having cameras like modern ones that pick up audio would be cool because we could hear the ambient sound and the soldiers telling stories

      They are Grenadier Guards, one of the five Foot guard regiments. Formed in 1656. 1st Battalion is their light infantry role and Nijmegen company are their ceremonial role. They are not security guards, they are active duty soldiers. They don't wear their scarlet tunics all year. Grey coats in winter and tunic in summer months. If you are wondering how I know this as I am joining them and applying for the army shortly.

      Esteban Federico Sanchez Lombardo not true, John Davis discovered the islands in 1592 and a British colony was established in 1764. The islands were a British crown colony before Argentina even existed. In 1829 Argentina held unlawful elections to appoint a governor of the Island. Britain then realised the argentine government was attempting to colonise the islands and reclaimed them. The islands have belonged to Britain for hundreds of years and in 2016 the islanders voted 98% in favour of remaining British meaning any argentine claim is unjustified.

    This is so beautiful to see even after 11 years. In the Army you need people to survive your Tour. You don't only fight the physical war where bullets fly past you but the war that you will always fight is the physiological one. That is why the man in 6:20 is enjoying himself and those kids; to take his mind and the kids mind out of reality for one second. In life, it works the same way, you need people to survive the world. You can't do it on your own. Physiological pain is something that is misseen and ignored. Help the others that suffer from it 🙏🏼❤️.
