Man this gives me chills and a tear of pride. I used to serve in our beloved army so this gets me at a personal level. Very happy to be born in our great country.
It gives you pride that the military is dressed in red coat? Even the military recognizes the brave soldiers before didn’t wear red coats, they wear this today as a “luxury” for the ideal situation.
Living history, love it and I'm from the u.k, god bless the u.s.a
You would love it you red coat tyrant.
I had a lot of ancestors that fought in the American Revolution. One of them was a drummer under George Washington. One of them had a conversation with Washington, my 5th ggf Samuel Ellis. RIP Jacob and Josiah Flanders, Elijah Moore ,Joseph Sargent, Samuel Ellis and the rest (can't remember all the names).
yes, one of my ancestors served as a Lieutenant and then as a Captain in the Connecticut Colonial Militia which became the Connecticut State Militia in New England
None of them wore red coat…. This is a disgrace to the brave soldiers who pioneered this country…. Fact: red coats started being worn in the U.S. military in 1960
The Editing Destroyed This Beautiful and Sacred Ceremony.
Terrible.
If not mistaken, the drum major of the Fife and Drum Corps is the only personnel in the entire United States Armed Forces authorized to salute with a left hand. At 3:07, that's the drum major.
You are indeed mistaken. In the United States Navy, there are two instances when a member may salute with their left hand.
1 - If the right hand is encumbered by injury, preventing the render of a salute
2 - When a boatswain's mate is serving as a sideboy and is using his/her right hand to hold the call pipe, he/she must salute with the left.
@@bilcarter well didn't know that. I do know about the injury, but I didn't know the 2nd one, the boatswain mate.
Outstanding!!! I love you America, and I am humbled by the reverence we give to our unknown heroes whose shoulders we stand on.
This is the most American thing I have seen
Don't cut off the National Anthem and Taps!
Love the Old Guard
You won't see this on TV or the news.
Because it’s boring. And I’ve actually seen it on CSPAN.
@@YogsenForfoth Yet, you are back here again to watch it. F-ing Troll, drop dead.
I saw that GR, her playing may be historical but her mouthpiece is revolutionary.
Who was the camera person a 3 year old?
Impossible to watch!
Hearing the Tap is hard.
Wow... this is.. a special event...
editing is a little wak, but woulda been good to ge there with all the seevice members in uniform
Whats happening with your English?
one to many typos mate
@@thehumanhopes3178 fix them mate I wanna read!😂
goosebumps

The Buff Sticks are STRAC!!! Noli Me Tangere!!!
Blue with red is for the soldiers the red and blue is for the music corp
Red and blue is a new thing, starting in the 1960s…. The military itself claims that the military didn’t wear red coat because of costs, and that the modern iteration is a luxury of the ideal situation….. still a disgrace.

Shouldn’t they be wearing breaches with knee stockings?
Trying to find the “wHy ArE tHeY wEaRiNg ReD?!??!?” comments lol
I’m here…… the red coat thing is a new phenomenon… the military itself claims that the music band of the continental army didn’t wear red coat, and that they wear red coat today, because it’s an ideal luxury of a custom that didn’t happen… so here I am.
Although it's clearly American the old gaurd dressed in period costumes look like the British Army during the American revolutionary war .
Not really
It’s because musicians wore the opposite of the regiment they were attached to to differentiate them from the infantry. The infantry that did the fighting had blue coats with red accents. Musicians have the opposite. In other videos they’ll point that out.
The red parts are called facings.
@@Bountyhopper Facings, I knew there was an actual word for that. Thank you.
@@noahsuess2806 ok thanks .
👍👍👍👍👍
Sweetness
Why are they in the British and not continental army uniform?
The Fife and Drum Corps wear the Uniform as prescribed by General George Washington during The American Revolution.
Counter color. Red tunics with blue facings for music, blue tunics with red facing for men at arms in the US Continental Army of the era.
Today's modern full dress uniform for music in the US Army and Marine Corps bands and orchestras are red as well.
@@STho205 as Ordered by General George Washington, The Commanding General Of The Continental Army during The American Revolution
These fools are wrong, a spokesman for the military band claims they likely did NOT wear red uniforms due to not having the budget, he goes on to claim that they wear red today as a luxury of the ideal situation, while claiming it was not actually worn by the continental army.
I'm curious as to the significance of having redcoats at a uniquely American war memorial.
US Musicians wore the reverse colors of their parent infantry units, so as to stand out on the battlefield. This made it easier for officers to locate them so they could signal commands. The soldiers of the 3d US Infantry Regiment wore blue coats with red trim, thus their musicians had red coats with blue trim.
Thank you Mike.
@@TimeNfeel91 Can confirm this is true. Mike is correct.
@@TimeNfeel91 That's really interesting. I assumed this was some kind of symbolic and/or international brotherhood thing. Thanks for the info.
@@TimeNfeel91 British and French musicians did this too
Now do it in the civil war uniforms
Ew no
@@Bountyhopper I FOUND YOU AGAIN

Страна шоу.
Waving the height requirements to meet those dei quotas I see. I'm sure that will help with the recruiting goals. So much effort to bring us closer to mediocrity.
Mediocrity from allowing anyone of any height? Riiiiiight.
.9o
Who thought it was a good idea for them to wear "Redcoats"?
The conteninal Congress
Anyone of that time with a single working eye could tell they arnt British soldiers form a mile away
It separates then from combat arms and if they get captured. Hey you guys like music
Everyone that didn’t want them to be shot in battle
@@xys7536 well it’s easy to tell the difference between a musician and soldier. One has combat equipment the other he’s a instrument. They were the reversed regimentals so they arnt targeted in the heat of battle
Why do we never see a woman playing the drums instead? Or in any military branch when they do marching drills why do you never see the women playing the marching drum beat?
who invited the red coats?
1960s act of congress, a video by the military guy in charge, claims the continental army didn’t wear red coat for the band due to budget reasons, but claims todays band wear the ideal situation as a luxury….
1:50 Women? Lol, this is so ahistorical
@Einar Thorvaldsen bruh😂
This isn't just some historical reenactment. They are active duty soldiers of the U.S. Army, serving with honor, and should be respected as such.
@@gullyfoyle3915 maybe we should respect the Active Duty Continental Army of that period, and portray them the way the actually looked. All those Soldiers may be dead now, but they still deserve our respect for what they did.
@@AgressorNation Present day soldiers paying respects to soldiers of the past.
@@panzerabwerkanone Soldiers of that period would have unanimously disapproved of women serving as Soldiers. Having females portraying Soldiers of that period, is actually a great disrespect towards the Soldiers of that period, and it’s done solely to appease women and liberals of today.
Right!!!...Chicks in the Colonial Army!!

@@AgressorNation Except that this is an active military unit, and today's military includes women. I get that it doesn't dovetail completely with the "historical reenactment" portion of their duties, but if you want pure historical reenactment, go to Colonial Williamsburg, or start your own group. There's no chance today's army will exclude women from any non-combat position. Nor should they, in my opinion. I do not feel that it dishonors the Continental Army to have honorable soldiers today playing in the Fife and Drum Corps, regardless of their sex.
Surprisingly some women did serve during the Revolutionary War along-side the men. Same in the Civil War. Dr. Young, you should know that. That said, what Gully Foyle said - they are ALL part of the US Army band and performed brilliantly.
Women?!?! Oh for crying’ out loud!! Political correctness run amok.
