Please accept my salute (British style!) and gratitude for your service, sir! I absolutely agree the HMRM are the finest military ensemble on the planet. One of my regrets is not having British citizenship, although I consider myself a displaced British citizen of 60 years, to be eligible to enlist and serve as a bugler in HMRM or HM Grenadier Guards. What an honor it would have been to wear the royal blue tunic and white helmet! I pray for the UK, the Queen and HM forces daily as I am thankful for the strong alliance our two nations share! God save the Queen!

Forty or so years ago, as a fresh-off-the-boat immigrant from UK, I was at a Royal Marines performance at the Boston Garden with my Yankee wife. I can remember being somewhat bemused when all sorts of gentlemen stood in the audience at the playing of The Halls of Montezuma. It didn't take long to understand. This video brings back memories of that evening. Thanks.
Love our guys and so proud to be British as you can't beat the HM Royal Marines.. Bless the guy that stood all through it.. And bless the guys we lost..
Sent a shiver down my spine, brilliant marching band music and musicians, the Royal Marines Band never ceases to be brilliant and entertaining. Thanks for sharing. 😁👍🇬🇧🏴
the performance of this band was still outstanding and the uk will always be welcomed to our great country it's just that the USA created the first marine Corps branch than any other country so basically we are the bench mark for any other marine branch
@@someone-uh3zo sorry mate but that was the Spanish in 1537. The Royal Marines are also 111 years older than the US Marines, having been formed in 1664
Wow, what an exceptionally good performance from the Band of HM Royal Marines. Absolutely perfect, with precise Military Drill as well as superb Musicianship. One wonderful performance, showing this is why the Royal Marines Bands are the finest Military Band in the world. Well Done the RM Band Service and all it stands for .... SuperNutkin.
I saw them perform at Lehman College in the Bronx (NYC) during this tour. They were terrific. Sadly, I believe they were the last British military band to tour the USA.
I would take up arms to defend both even at the tender age of 60! I'm especially grateful for those smashing lads from the UK without whom the liberation of Europe would have been impossible. May the Lord Almighty continue to bless our alliance!
@@keithmitchell6548 Bollocks. We both know what is right and what is wrong. We have far more in common than differences, no matter what people like you may say.
Mad Geordie Ever lived in America and is it really so obvious what is right and what is wrong? I would imagine most British people would find it wrong to be denied access to healthcare if you lose your job. I would imagine most British people find it wrong that you might go bankrupt to pay for medical treatment in the event of a serious illness. I would imagine most British people would find it right to restrict access to guns to avoid mass shootings. I would imagine that most British people would find a functioning government essential to the successful running of a country. On the other hand, some Americans seem to be perfectly fine that tens of millions of their fellow Americans have no access to healthcare. Some, maybe most Americans think it’s their ‘god-given right’ to bear arms. Some Americans think government shouldn’t exist at all. These are just a few examples. In terms of values, the UK is more closely aligned with other European social democracies than the US. But if you don’t believe me, try living in the UK, the US and a couple of other European countries, as I have.
@@keithmitchell6548 Apart from a common culture, heritage and language the differences which exist today are much smaller than the ones highlighted in your post. We have far more in common with America than the Europe we are currently trying to disentangle ourselves from.
Mad Geordie You’re right that a common heritage and language have nothing to do with values. Common culture? I don’t think so and those differences I mentioned truly do exist and they illustrate the fundamental differences in the way we’ve set up our societies reflecting different value systems. Sorry that you think healthcare is such an insignificant thing. Go live in different countries in Europe and then live in the US and then we’ll have this conversation again in 10 years.
Actually it's the motto associated with the order of the garter. The garter being the belt looking thing that appears around the shield on the coat of arms.

To detract from insult to injury on comments made elsewhere, about the Standard of the Musicians. Todays Musicians are more competent because they have had a Musical Education which those of my Day did not have. Under Training we were often pushed into a corner and told to practice over and over again a Piece or an Exercise in my case from Klose Clarinet Tutor! Just blow on your instrument for most of the day and that seemed to satisfy the D of M. A little education in the Old Infirmary in Deal from a RN Education Officer who played some Classical Piece for us to Study. Didn't help me with Sight Reading or Phrasing, so, once I was at Sea and Leader of My Band, I was on my own and had to get on with it! To add insult to injury, it was Tradition that the Senior Clarinettist would be the Band Leader in Military Concert Band, so how awful for me and my oppo when I joined a Ship to be told by the Bandmaster that I was to be the Principal Clarinettist and Lead the Band on the Concert Stand! I further suggest that many of my former Band Musician will agree with my observations about the practices of who, why and when! It was a matter of Pride to meet your Match on the Stand. First Solo appearance for me was on South Barracks Summer Concerts in Deal, when I understand my late Mom fainted when I stood up and played a Solo and couple of Cadenzas in Orpheus in the Underworld. So Sorry if I have bored anyone reading this....
Ernest Hartland interesting, did you join as a musician? I believe you need to be educated to degree level in music to join as clarinet player now days.

Edward Reed. All RM musicians, male and female, are trained soldiers. They do basic military training including drill, first aid, survival, small arms and marksmanship, and other skills. They are, however, not usually Commandos the training for which takes much longer and is much more intense. Their field operational role is normally as "back office" headquarters soldiers. If things get a little sticky (which has occasionally happened in the 350 year history of the RM) they can all pick up their rifle and take their place in the firing line. Quite a few RM Bandsmen have fallen in action in exactly those circumstances.
That's just wrong. All RM bandsmen/women are required to complete the basic phase of training like any other royal marine which includes much more than just marching. They can go on to do the All Arms Commando Course and earn a green beret just like anybody else in the British Armed Forces. The bands have on many occasions deployed in active service, usually in medical or logistics roles but in a war zone everyone is first a soldier.
Yes they are technically part of the navy but act as their own service and yes the navy will use Royal Marines bands but simply because the navy hasn’t got a band
Am from the US and absolutely LOVED this. What perfection, grace, and class. The music was so beautiful.
By a country mile the best military band in the world. So proud to be British and to have served.
