    Please comment with your experience serving, or of others who served. And in advance, thank you for your service.
    This video was requested by 1 RIFLES for their annual Bugle Competition. Typically, the event takes place with specaters and judges, live at the event, but amidst covid fears, the event was adapted online. Each Unit had to create a video application for the judge's assessment. We were pleased that this video application saw the 1 RIFLES buglers win the competition!
    The opening song is Swift and Bold by Show of Hands.
    As we all know, the coronation of King Charles ii is a historic event that symbolizes the ascension of a monarch to the throne. This year's coronation promises to be one of the most memorable ones in recent history, and the Rifles will be playing a significant role in it with their bugaling performance.
    The Rifles are known for their exceptional musical abilities and their bugaling skills are second to none. They have been chosen to perform at the coronation, and their performance promises to be a highlight of the event.
    In this video, we will take you behind the scenes and show you the preparation that the Rifles have been putting in for their performance. We will also give you a glimpse of the grandeur and splendor of the coronation and the festivities surrounding it.
    From the intricate costumes to the elaborate decorations, everything about the coronation exudes elegance and royalty. And the Rifles' performance will be the perfect complement to this grand occasion.
    So, whether you're a fan of bugaling or simply interested in the coronation and the Rifles' part in it, this video is a must-watch. Join us on this journey as we take you through the sights and sounds of the coronation and the Rifles' mesmerizing bugaling performance.

    My Father Peter Harry Baldwin was 9th (S) Battalion Rifle Brigade joining in 1943. His Commanding Officer Col. V B Turner VC won at the action at Snipe in 1942.
    My Father was intensely proud of having been a Rifleman. His Father served in the Ox & Bucks Light infantry after WW1.... He would be so proud to watch this wonderful film.
    He passed away exactly 25 years ago today 25th June 1998...
    God bless the Rifles and all service personnel who serve in the UK Armed Forces 🇬🇧

    My great grandfather, Arthur Williams, joined hm 43rd l I regt is 1847 as an 18yr old. He retired as the quartermaster (RSM) in 1865. The 43rd was retrained as light infantry in 1802 by Sir John Moore.

      43rd became 1st Bn. Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry, 2nd Bn. being the 52nd. Sometimes had “43rd / 52nd” added in brackets after the name. Sometimes shortened to Oxford and Bucks but NEVER OBLI

      @dixoncreates1131  Рік тому

      It is off key, you're right. They told me this at the time (I know little about music as a video editor). It was a difficult situation apparently as the band (if that's the word) had not been able practice together for the entirety of lockdown and through the restrictions at the time. The editing process required me to cut out some of the even 'less well hit' notes and put in sections that were better. We were proud with how it turned out under the circumstances though. What do you think in your honest opinion?

Like you I'm no musician but I believe the bugle is particularly difficult as it has no valves. Let's face it the Army has been cut so much I suppose we should be thankful they are still allowed a bugle band!
