I'm an ex-82nd Airborne Trooper. I was invited to march with the Parachute Regiment at Horse Guards in 2006. I have come every year since, and have reservations for 2016.
I watched this when it was originally on TV but shed just as many tears this time as last. It is such a humbling experience to see the people who fought so we can enjoy the freedoms we have now. As an ex member of the army the camardarie is second to none. you all belong to a family regardless of age
I served with the 2nd Battalion Canadian Guards and Canadian Airborne Regiment 2 Commando. Those Veterans did themselves proud. Great dressing, stayed in step. Very well done, ladies and gentlemen
Just saw the video. This was 10 years ago. Most of the WW2 and Malayan Emergency and Indonesian Confrontation veterans will have passed on by now. May God bless them for their achievements and services. Truly magnificent men and women.
Honour, pride, comradeship, duty, self sacrifice. Just words to many people who do not or cannot understand them. To us who have served, they mean everything. It is easy for them to ridicule that which they do not understand and ignore the fact that they owe their freedom to men who are willing to do violence on their behalf. We know what we stand for and we never forget our comrades that never came back from that foreign field. 19 year British veteran,
Leonard ~ those that spat at you should remember that you were prepared to write a blank cheque to defend their rights . They forget that someone else paid that debt . The atmosphere in Whitehall on these days is one of pride and comradeship . The Cap Badge or colour of uniform we wore unites us as 'Brothers In Arms' who remember our fallen comrades of all generations . Come and join us one year , you be made Welcome 'We Will Remember Them'

Good to see the BBC covering the vets march past properly and describing the units - In the past this part of Remembrance Day was disgracefully ignored by the BBC.
As an American veteran, I'd love to participate in something like your mass veterans parade. But the U.S. is so large that it would be a logistical challenge just to get to whatever city or cities that would host the parade. Your men look damn sharp. We have veterans groups, though not as many as yours... American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Disabled American Veterans, Paralyzed American Veterans, Vietnam Veterans Association... Even if we would have such parades, there probably wouldn't be as many of the public in attendance as your people.
@@keithrudd8003 All of your veterans here are quite dignified, wearing their berets, regimental neck ties, and blazers... quite sharp ! Unfortunately, both our governments are sadly lacking in the care and support oft needed, and badly, by veterans of the many conflicts. Many Americans have to retain attorneys to secure their rightfully earned benefits, and even then many are denied as I was. Now receiving a civilian disability pension only because I paid into the system beginning at age 16...
Hi Leonard, in the UK we have an organisation called The Royal British Legion. They organise and contribute funds they have raised for this day. It's a tradition we all love and respect and maybe you or some of your old comrades could gather support in the USA for something similar to be set up. So everyone who served, and especially the Public should get the opportunity to remember fallen service personnel. Get the fat cat congressmen involved. Good luck.
Hundreds of seniors soldiers , is so amazing and inspiring . This Seniors marching for their country, and honoring their fallen mates 😢. I know British army goes back centuries, came out in ships 🚢 and horse , to find more for their people all over the world , my respect and admiration 😂🎉thanks narrator .
So sorry you feel as you do but hey come on over here for the 2014 march past many ex US service men/women do I assure you will be very much welcomed and appreciated for your service.
mr preston49 it is not only england who are represented here the scots welsh irish canadians australia south africa newzealand newfoundland french poland norway netherlands greece india ethiopia belgium cyprus america even mexico and many other countries who gave their lives to protect the world from tyrants
I doe British and Canadian remembrance Parade, Still do the Canadian Parade as live here now, But must say the British remembrance is truly Second to none, on parade here for Remembrance I see the Vets talking and moving about ON PARADE in front of the CENOTAPH as I stood with them, its not the thing to do on the day
Thank you for uploading this. I marched with my Grandpa that year who served with the Arctic Convoys. It was an honour to meet so many incredible men.
My.uncle served on the arctic conveys. Loved him to the day he died. ❤
My late father served in Burma in the 14th Punjab.
He received the Military Cross.
VJ Day is celebrated on 15th August.

Most important and impressive tribute to a group of patriots. who should never be forgotten.
Real men. Even at their age they can still march in time to the band. Never forget. Army veteran R.C.T / R.L.C 1985 to 2002.
love watching these vids that many years later these old soldiers still keep step as well as any of the current lads and i love to see that.

Impressive, beyond words. Salute to the living and the dead. Ex Royal Navy.

Enjoy, my time in the Scots Guards Band was the most memorable time of my life.

Every village, town and city , had its own parade to go along with the main one in London.

Love this.🏴🇬🇧🏴🇬🇧
such honor to all who have served. There is nothing like this in the USA. I feel, usually that I am spat upon to have served my country for 20 years.
Stand Fast, Leonard.
You wouldn't get spat at in the UK, you will be applauded
makes my eyes weep. What a brave lot of people.
Wow.
british people do applaud their people so much more than americans
GOD bless Great Britain and the Queen

A ceremony unlike any other (as is the Trooping of the Colour), and for me this part is the most poignant. Thanks for the informative coverage.
Good show England. , from American Legion Vet.
A simple word. Thank you.
National service needed for youth so far removed from wars to realise the futility of war but RESPECT for those forced to go on their behalf.
when you watch this it makes you be proud to be British
lest we forget
this remembrance sunday will be my first in uniform
these people do remember their people who have fought for their country....I am so surprised.
Hundreds of seniors soldiers , is so amazing and inspiring . This Seniors marching for their country, and honoring their fallen mates 😢.
