The Scottish should stay away from England?

It's hard to describe to anyone who hasn't served, but being welcomed home in such a way can bring a man to tears.
@@danmaclean268 I would say that’s because it’s one of the few countries left that have endured such historic hardship and most of our people haven’t lost their sense of national pride, duty and discipline that comes from being the underdog, downtrodden and the hardest working nation in British history.
I was there on that hot day, I work in centre of City, 5 Scots had been here for so many years, it was a sad day to see them go. Canterbury misses them. I also saw them get the Freedom of Canterbury City which was very moving. They've always been loved by the people here.
Being an Englishman I love this. I have much love for my Scottish, Welsh and Irish Neighbours. I love the banter in Sport between us and long may that remain. However when it comes down to it I respect you all.
The Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, 5th Battalion the Royal Regiment of Scotland, were based at Howe Barracks for 10 years, and this was their farewell parade. What a magnificent sight, and one to stir the Scottish blood. The locals will miss them though and my thanks to them as a Scot for making them feel at home for all these years.
As a Canadian I'm proud of the Scots They been fighting for what is right since the start Grandpa fought along side them "The Royal Scots" Aswell as many Scottish born Canadian troops in his own units

@William Sanders - The "military jargon" you speak of is FAR too close to the way the Yanks tried to re-educate the Amer Indians by re writing our military history & contaminating our culture by slipping brass instruments into our pipe bands . And as if that wasn't bad enough the resulting sounds clash badly !
I love the sound ob bagpipes and I'm American without a drop of Scottish blood in me, but I love Scotland and its beauty and its people who are so kind and friendly. AND I love Outlander!
I'm an American and once heard that back in the day, the pipes and drums struck terror in the hearts of those who never heard them. I could see why. God Bless and keep your chins up. You have much to be very proud of in your units.
Served with the armed forces, made little difference in firefights if we were Scots (I am), English, Welsh, Irish, Ghurka or Indian, we were all mates and looked after each other. Mind you those guys do know how to march and good on the English crowd for accepting them as Brits not just Scots.
Would be a sad day not to be able to trust a Scotsman because of politicians. Born in England but with a family mostly Scots and Welsh I'm as British as they come.
gagarin yuri We're not cunts mate. We might have a football rivalry, and our differences. But, we live in the same island together and share the same history together. I consider the Scottish our brothers, and if they're ever in trouble, the English will be the first to defend them. Same goes for Wales, Northern Ireland, Ireland. The home countries always come first.
gagarin, you are so right in fact the two prima donnas, the Parachute Regiment and Royla Marines are no better or worse than any regiment. I live in Canterbury and some of the bars put a ban on 5 Scots, we the locals led by many ex militrary like me, shmed them into lifting the ban. Mind you, The jocks do like a punch up when in drink
As my mother has always said "A Scot in full kilt does not walk, They stride, strut and swagger." My mother is of Highland blood so I think she would know.
Wow, as an Englishman I'd feel very proud to see these Scots marching through my town any day. Fabulous. As for our enemies, take a look at these men. The best of British!
Just Gofish I just don’t understand why some people want Scotland to be independent, we were united hundreds of years ago because a Scottish King inherited the Crown of England, causing divisions now is just pointless.
The Tea Messiah the problem is Scottish people never voted to be part of British union, worth remembering that union was bribed and forced on Scotland. At the time of the act of union 1707 not 1% of scots wanted union and there was rebellions after. In 2014 the majority of scots voted for independence, if there was less english people in Scotland then Scotland would be independent right now
I was born in America & today's Memorial Day for U.S.A. Veterans. My name is Scott & it must be my destiny to visit Scotland because there's no place I'd rather be! Scots have so much soul, heart, & comradery! From one Scott to another Scot. I love you guys & I can never get enough brotherhood or bagpipes from ye Scots!

@@elizabethhoneyman7939 Hahaha, one in a long line. On a serious note, Hadrian’s Wall is very close to where I live. If north of that used to be Scotland, you guys got screwed out of lots of land since then. Is this right?
@@darrenrushton8538 It's often used as the boundary line just for casual conversation, but Hadrian's wall never was the official boundary line, from what I'd read. And the Borders were always in a mix of Scottish territory or English territory (as I understand Newcastle is a bit up North?) I know that Northumbria and Cumbria were Scottish territories until 14/15th Century... and that they have a big Scottish population, so maybe you have some Scottish heritage too!
I'm a Texan, born and raised. I'm sitting here with tears rolling down my face. Pipes never fail to move me, even when it's uplifting music. Maybe it's my Scottish blood. haha
Absolutely respect and admire the British Army and especially the Scots. My American family is about half Scots-Irish, and seven generations of us have served in the U.S. Army Cavalry, a trait I think we inherited from our Scots ancestors. A lot of our Civil War battles were decided by which side had the greater number of Scots and Irish in it.
I'm only a simple man from Germany. But I must say: Absolutly brilliant your Drums, Pipes und Fiddlers...and the coreography amazing. I Love it so much. Be proud of it. God bless Scotland 🏴
I wish we had something as heartwarming/intimidating here in our military in America. I mean I love our Marine Corps up beat songs but this is something special. The Scots do it best.
@@maxmoore3472 When Romans tried to Conquer Scotland they brought bagpipes with them 2000 years ago, very small in comparison to Scots Pipes. We made them better, louder and much bigger & used them as a weapon of War. It's been like this ever since but in reality the small Roman Pipes where nothing like what the Scots done to them and rest is History. There just a part of our culture since and will be until the end of time 👍
First born American here, lived here my entire life. Took a trip to Scotland to see the regiments, and by GOD… whenever I heard pipes in person, I felt like I wanted to March with them and throw a salute. God Bless the Scots! HOOAH!!!
Wonderful, thank you for posting. So moving and comforting to know the Scots are still as determined and focused as they ever were. I remember my father telling me stories of their incredible feats during WWII.
A brilliant display of outstanding soldiers. I am a Veteran ( English ), I served alongside the Scots. They were organised, disciplined and, above all, brave. Perhaps the only place that the English and Scottish ever respected, trusted, and loved each other, was in conflict. Shame eh?
The Scottish lairds (the old clan chiefs) turned the highlanders off their lands because sheep were more profitable. The English had nothing to do with it. Remember Scotland was an independent country since the days of the Bruce.
Love the Scot British army regiments. Respect from England and a ex infantry soldier. I would gladly go into battle with scot or Welsh man anytime. Some of the best soldiers in the world.
Thank you for capturing this fantastic piece of footage so that we can all enjoy it for years to come. Glorious! The hairs are standing up on end and the blood is stirring. Love it!
Wonderful...the pipes and drums never fail to stir my celtic blood. Emotive as they are, I also love the carnyx. It has the most haunting, eerie sound and must have been daunting to hear for any enemy. Peace to all.
I am 5 generations removed from Scotland. The pipes always send a chill through me. If the pipes have a tug on your heart then no matter where you are- Scotland is your home.

@@alanthomas2064 - It still is. It is part of the honour bestowed by a city's governing body, represented typically by the mayor, upon a military unit - Army, Navy or Air Force - (in this case the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, 5th Battalion the Royal Regiment of Scotland) when they are granted Freedom of the City, which includes the right to parade, drums beating, flags flying, and bayonets fixed. In some parts of the world, the "keys" to the city are an equivalent honour which can be bestowed upon a citizen, groups, or military units. This video shows the march...a sad day for the battalion and Canterbury when the military reorganized its deployment. On the plus side, quite a few pints were shared in friendship.

@d1mitry01 - I dare you ... no, I DOUBLE dare you to go to any of the loyalist areas of Belfast and shout that in the street. You'll last 15 or maybe 20 seconds before being dragged away and beaten like a ginger step-child!
d1mitry01 There was a vast majority of Scots that emigrated to Ulster after the three failed Jacobite rebellions and Highland Clearances, yes you are correct there. However, there was still a majority of Irish that existed there. One could also argue that the Scots and Irish are one in the same; as far ethnic and cultural lines go. The old name for Ireland in Latin was Scotia Majoraea. Which translated to Greater Scotland; and the Latin name for Scotland translates into Lesser Scotland; Scotia Minoraea. We are essentially all Gaels who branched off into different Christian sects; that’s the only difference. However, if one goes to Dundee or Forfar or areas around there then what I have suggested - and from observation I can confirm - that the people who inhabited that area were probably the last vestiges of the Pictish culture who spoke a Brythonic language, and were more closely resembling the Welsh/Briton tribes. We don’t know the ethnic lineage of the Picts. Ethnically, we are essentially all the same. Furthermore, if we look closely at English ethnic and genetic makeup they resemble very closely the Welsh’s; however, they are far more distinct ethnically from Northern Germans than the Welsh. This implies that the ‘English’ simply took on the culture of the invading Jutes, Angles, Saxons, Norse and Normans but these groups of invaders did not make a lasting genetic or ethnic impact upon the Britons in that area - or modern English. It’s very interesting but essentially these facts prove the ‘British’ (People inhabiting the areas of the British Isles) have been largely genetically homogenous for around 2000-3000 years approximately, but possibly longer. A small addendum is needed, in areas in the South of England such as Canterbury and Dover, additionally the area of Anglia to lesser degrees, have a lot of Frisian (Dutch) admixture. Historical analyses seems to indicate this fact as being the cause; the Brythonic Iceni (Ancient people who inhabited modern day Anglia) and other tribes in that area witnessed migrations, raids and some failed invasions by Frisians (ancient Dutch). With the close geographical proximity it is no surprise these cultural and ethnic exchange took place. So, that explains that small anomalous ethnic lineage of those peoples.

I'm American. Served beside the RAF in the gulf (90's).My father was born in Birmingham and use to tell me he remembered seeing tanks and bombers flying over during WWII. Told me stories how the Scots use to march into battle with bag pipes playing and how it would frighten the enemy, back in the day. Ever since then I have loved to hear bagpipes and see them used in the military. There might be some in Great Britain that are divided, as in every country. ( #sorryabouttrump ) But just know, that you guys have each others backs and are so entwined, that you are stronger together. It was good to see the English react to the Scots, and it actually took me a second as an American to get that reaction. ( except that one lady as the pipes got there... she had shopping to do and didn't have time for no Scots bullshittery, lol) When the shit happens, you guys are all there together, and your goofy Cousins are right across the pond for you ( and we're bringing the Canadians with us, lol )

But after 90% of us are abused by our over controlling-abusive- toxic parents/relatives/teachers/etc who screw us up ( & THE best child psychologist ALICE MILLER wrote to all the heads of state in the world about it But they all ignored it as thy want to maintain a status quo that benefits them @ our cost ! ) The next stage is for the conventional education system to dumb us down as the politicians don't care for having a population bright enough to ask them awkward questions they prefer to avoid ! - From where I am that seems a pretty global problem - But as the power elites are more concerned with maintaining power that's the start of NON SURVIVAL BEHAVIOUR!

What a magnificent sight, and one to stir the Scottish blood. The locals will miss them though and my thanks to them as a Scot for making them feel at home for all these years.
AYE LASS , AYE .
Ditto - we miss them....even on Saturday night ...quieter without them😥😂

They can trace their regimental history all the way back to Colin Campbell’s 93rd Highlanders the Original “Thin red line” at the Battle of Balaclava.
Do you know the name of the tune they are playing here by chance?
As a Canadian I'm proud of the Scots They been fighting for what is right since the start Grandpa fought along side them "The Royal Scots" Aswell as many Scottish born Canadian troops in his own units
The sound of encouragement for the scotts and terror for the opponents. Always been an admirer for the Scottish traditions, the bagpipes. It's just badass.

5 Scots is military jargon for the fifth battalion of "The Royal Regiment of Scotland", they are "The Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders".
Absolutely - but governmental penny pinching and bureaucracy ... Wish these faceless men knew what they were dealing with.
I'd like to think that only non-Brits wouldn't know that, but these days, I'm not too sure.
@William Sanders - The "military jargon" you speak of is FAR too close to the way the Yanks tried to re-educate the Amer Indians by re writing our military history & contaminating our culture by slipping brass instruments into our pipe bands . And as if that wasn't bad enough the resulting sounds clash badly !
The 93rd! The Thin Red Line
A&SH correct
I love the sound ob bagpipes and I'm American without a drop of Scottish blood in me, but I love Scotland and its beauty and its people who are so kind and friendly. AND I love Outlander!
I'm an American and once heard that back in the day, the pipes and drums struck terror in the hearts of those who never heard them. I could see why. God Bless and keep your chins up. You have much to be very proud of in your units.

Wow, as an Englishman I'd feel very proud to see these Scots marching through my town any day. Fabulous. As for our enemies, take a look at these men. The best of British!
Just Gofish I just don’t understand why some people want Scotland to be independent, we were united hundreds of years ago because a Scottish King inherited the Crown of England, causing divisions now is just pointless.
The Tea Messiah the problem is Scottish people never voted to be part of British union, worth remembering that union was bribed and forced on Scotland. At the time of the act of union 1707 not 1% of scots wanted union and there was rebellions after. In 2014 the majority of scots voted for independence, if there was less english people in Scotland then Scotland would be independent right now
18 75 there aren’t actually that many English people living in Scotland.
Not for long, my dear friend. BoJo will see to that.

Absolutely respect and admire the British Army and especially the Scots. My American family is about half Scots-Irish, and seven generations of us have served in the U.S. Army Cavalry, a trait I think we inherited from our Scots ancestors.

That's a point , ! Where was the bagpipes actually invented , I believe their used in several different cultures around the world ?
@@maxmoore3472 When Romans tried to Conquer Scotland they brought bagpipes with them 2000 years ago, very small in comparison to Scots Pipes.

There just a part of our culture since and will be until the end of time 👍
Lifts the hairs on the back of my neck every time I hear my Scottish music played so well. Rare braw !!
First born American here, lived here my entire life. Took a trip to Scotland to see the regiments, and by GOD… whenever I heard pipes in person, I felt like I wanted to March with them and throw a salute.
God Bless the Scots! HOOAH!!!
Wonderful, thank you for posting. So moving and comforting to know the Scots are still as determined and focused as they ever were. I remember my father telling me stories of their incredible feats during WWII.
My goodness can't beat that Scots swagger, call it what you like, they have the sexiest march ever.
A brilliant display of outstanding soldiers. I am a Veteran ( English ), I served alongside the Scots. They were organised, disciplined and, above all, brave. Perhaps the only place that the English and Scottish ever respected, trusted, and loved each other, was in conflict. Shame eh?
not shame a nessity have to trust a fellow from the same island fighting aside you for a war
Superb ! Be proud of Scotland !!

Nothing like a highland regiment in full pomp and splendour.
The Scottish lairds (the old clan chiefs) turned the highlanders off their lands because sheep were more profitable. The English had nothing to do with it. Remember Scotland was an independent country since the days of the Bruce.

Fixed bayonets was a privilege in ancient turbulent times!
@@alanthomas2064 - It still is. It is part of the honour bestowed by a city's governing body, represented typically by the mayor, upon a military unit - Army, Navy or Air Force - (in this case the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, 5th Battalion the Royal Regiment of Scotland) when they are granted Freedom of the City, which includes the right to parade, drums beating, flags flying, and bayonets fixed. In some parts of the world, the "keys" to the city are an equivalent honour which can be bestowed upon a citizen, groups, or military units. This video shows the march...a sad day for the battalion and Canterbury when the military reorganized its deployment. On the plus side, quite a few pints were shared in friendship.
THIS is one of the many reasons why i LOVE Scotland!!!!!
A wonderful sound and emotional video from our friends and cousins north up over the border. May the friendship and bonds last forever.
Fingers crossed for another indyref & they leave the Union. Can’t be bothered with their constant moaning when they live the life of Riley, free prescriptions, free Uni - filthy bastards

@d1mitry01 - I dare you ... no, I DOUBLE dare you to go to any of the loyalist areas of Belfast and shout that in the street. You'll last 15 or maybe 20 seconds before being dragged away and beaten like a ginger step-child!
Great comment, and it is superb to be together as one nation, one people, fighting for a common cause!
d1mitry01 There was a vast majority of Scots that emigrated to Ulster after the three failed Jacobite rebellions and Highland Clearances, yes you are correct there. However, there was still a majority of Irish that existed there. One could also argue that the Scots and Irish are one in the same; as far ethnic and cultural lines go. The old name for Ireland in Latin was Scotia Majoraea. Which translated to Greater Scotland; and the Latin name for Scotland translates into Lesser Scotland; Scotia Minoraea. We are essentially all Gaels who branched off into different Christian sects; that’s the only difference.
However, if one goes to Dundee or Forfar or areas around there then what I have suggested - and from observation I can confirm - that the people who inhabited that area were probably the last vestiges of the Pictish culture who spoke a Brythonic language, and were more closely resembling the Welsh/Briton tribes. We don’t know the ethnic lineage of the Picts.
Ethnically, we are essentially all the same. Furthermore, if we look closely at English ethnic and genetic makeup they resemble very closely the Welsh’s; however, they are far more distinct ethnically from Northern Germans than the Welsh. This implies that the ‘English’ simply took on the culture of the invading Jutes, Angles, Saxons, Norse and Normans but these groups of invaders did not make a lasting genetic or ethnic impact upon the Britons in that area - or modern English. It’s very interesting but essentially these facts prove the ‘British’ (People inhabiting the areas of the British Isles) have been largely genetically homogenous for around 2000-3000 years approximately, but possibly longer.
A small addendum is needed, in areas in the South of England such as Canterbury and Dover, additionally the area of Anglia to lesser degrees, have a lot of Frisian (Dutch) admixture.
Historical analyses seems to indicate this fact as being the cause; the Brythonic Iceni (Ancient people who inhabited modern day Anglia) and other tribes in that area witnessed migrations, raids and some failed invasions by Frisians (ancient Dutch). With the close geographical proximity it is no surprise these cultural and ethnic exchange took place. So, that explains that small anomalous ethnic lineage of those peoples.
@d1mitry01 You talk through your arse my friend. Living in NI, what you're saying doesn't count for all here. And I've got an independent view as don't belong to either side.
@d1mitry01 Not every Catholic thinks NI is occupied, not every Protestant favours the union. I wonder if you live in the same NI as I do.

Told me stories how the Scots use to march into battle with bag pipes playing and how it would frighten the enemy, back in the day. Ever since then I have loved to hear bagpipes and see them used in the military. There might be some in Great Britain that are divided, as in every country. ( #sorryabouttrump ) But just know, that you guys have each others backs and are so entwined, that you are stronger together. It was good to see the English react to the Scots, and it actually took me a second as an American to get that reaction.
