I'm very proud to be a former Royal Marines Commando.
From this Yank, thank you
I'm old now John, but as a young man I served for five years in 42 Commando, which is a part of 3 Commando Brigade.
Nothing quite like marching behind a band of the Royal Marines,
O
Had to watch twice. The band enters the scene and they are 5 wide, I call them ranks. They make a sharp left turn (more than 90 degrees) and suddenly are 3 ranks wide. Like magic. March on a bit and left turn on a street and are 5 wide again, Then street narrows and are 3 wide and suddenly 5 wide again! Like magic, without a misstep. They are the Royal Marine Band after all.
Sorry for the slight audio problem... that bass drum was anatomic! And my phone couldn't handle it 😑
Proud to be British and the US Marine didn’t look out of place
How smart are the returned , former Royal Marines. Bloody smart and can still march!
One of the best military bands in the world! Semper Fi from the U.S.
I am an Italian borñ ,ican honestly say the Royal Marine Band are best in the world. Very proud to be British. Best country in the all world.God Bless our Kin
As a trumpeter who does parades, I fkn love watching and listening to these guys
Yep march with pride and a sense of duty. Much love from Australia x
That drum Corp is absolutely flawless!! What a treat for Birmingham to have such a performance. Thanks for sharing this wonderful video 👍🏼👏🏻👏🏻
I miss playing with WMFS Band so much... We played these marches toooooo.
Just look at the way that Drum Major holds, and flourishes his mace. No other Drum Majors in the British Services have the same class. Elbows high up, and hand pointing straight down . That's unique to the Royal Marines. Best Service bands in the Country.
Great video ...... thanks for this.
This RM Drum Major is extremely smart and precise and has a very good military bearing and style that is good to see ...... if it's not D/M Mace, then it looks very much like him with the way he performs. (D/M Mace has got to be the most professional D/M the Royal Marines have had for a very long time) ... The RM Band is superb and very professional in their musical abilities and marching. Great to see and listen to ...... The RM Guard are also excellent. Well Done those guys. SuperNutkin
SuperNutkin Couldn't agree more! He had great presence!
Thanks Callum ..... What's the name of this particular Drum Major ?
SuperNutkin I have no idea but I though it was Mace at first glance with how smart and precise he was.
Must be a Mace Clone ..... Hah, Anyway, if he's modeling himself on the real D/M Mace, that's no bad thing.
SuperNutkin Not a bad thing at all...
Great show. Only the best. Their ties to U.S. Marines accentuated with a USMC officer hearing up a platoon. Nice touch.
Thanks for posting, excellent marching music top notch my favourite band, even though one is here in NZ can't get enough Kiaora and God Bless.
The band is great, as always. Marchers do a fine job. Too bad this event was in February. Scheduling it for a warmer month would have generated a larger crowd along the route.
Absolute precision simply the best military band in the world.
Sound is the key..ultimate weapon
Dear old Brum doesn't come badly either.
Britain at its best
@12:37 Interesting to see a US Marine Corps Officer in charge of a RN detachment. I wonder if he was the same Officer in charge of a Detachment at the last parade for the Late Prince Philip as Captain General at Buckingham Palace in August 2017?
Thanks for listing the drum solos, often overlooked. I did hear "Pompey " called at 5:16 and Cosgrove though :)
Yeah can't forget those drum solos! :)
excellent camera work! video is so clear set it makes you feel at your actually there
Thank you! Was a lot harder than i expect haha
Welcome to Brum.
Great video! Thank you for posting.
Callum Blair ty for posting this video its one of the ones I ain't seen yet all the tunes r drummed into me head as u have seen that many lol
Likewise haha
@@callumblair7773 I'm ex military my self so proud wen I hear the music also was in a championship band for many years we won all competitions like 10 year in a row lol
Outstanding! Loved it.
Royal Marines Drum Major ;
I like the way he swings his arm to a certain height, but not TOO high, unlike some other RM Drum Majors and Guards Drum Majors, plus the fact he keeps his arm STRAIGHT ...... there's nothing worse than seeing a D/Major swinging his arm too high and is also bent at the elbow, instead of being ram-rod straight. It's called the "boomerang arm" and looks as though the arm has just arrived independently from Australia.
Numerous Drum Majors are guilty of this and I can comment with some authority, especially after personally seeing the likes of really great RM Drum Majors in the past, and many years ago, such as Drum Majors Geoff Knox, Charlie Bowden, Colin Bowden, Dave Dawson, Dave Buchanan, Andy Crofts, Alfie Laming, John Porter and others.
The Coldstream Guards Drum Major, Steven Ward, from many years ago, was a legend and one of the finest Guards D/M's I've ever seen. If you could get an old video of this guy, you will be impressed.
Anyway, at last, we now have two superb RM Drum Majors in the likes of D/M Mace and now this guy, D/M Cartwright. The Scotland RM Band D/M is also quite good ..... SuperNutkin
Actually his style is a bit precious. The very best make their work look effortless whereas he tries a bit too hard. His "star gazing" on the mace drop is quite amateurish.
Amazing I marched behind some of those DM's
Fuck i love the Royal Marines band, They sound and look amazing.
;-) Royal Salute. Divine Blessings.
감사드립니다.
hi callum, shame i couldnt make it, but never mind, good video mate, looking forward to seeing you at mountbatten in 3 weeks mate - marc

Yep, hell be on exchange tour
I see
Great music.Be
autiful parade
So proud !!

4524 BCE Perga ( highest inconvenience visit)
Great band.
Who's the USA marine marching?. 12.14
There’s a us marine officer that’s strange
US and UK Marines do exchanges a friend of mine was a Mountain Leader in UK Marines and spent a couple of years in USA attached to US Marines
I saw the video of HRH the Duke of Edinburgh’s final public engagement, with the RM, and there was a USMC captain there, as well.
AND THE ANTS GO MARCHING X
Why is there a U.S marine?
Luis, this is because the USMC officer is on loan from the United States Marine Corps.
This happens quite often between regiments and corps, especially between the USMC and Royal Marines.
This enables them to exchange ideas whilst training, etc, and to go back to their regiment / corps with new ideas gained from the exchange posting.
We (the Royal Marines) send numerous officers and senior NCO's over to the USMC Recruit Depots in Virginia and San Diego to gain experience as to how they train their guys.
Good to see the exchange.
But why do US Marines march as though they're clenching a thre'penny bit between their buttocks?
The yanks march differently mate! They " lean back and set em' down, and march from the waist down."
SuperNutkin Point of order: MCRD Parris Island is in South Carolina.

Too bad thay had an american marine in the parade. Common wealth march. They walk
Don't see many of our Muslim community supporting our Marines?
In fact,NONE
Fuck off everyone is welcome in Britain honestly there’s no need lad
The last squad, why was there women in it? They looked a mess, especially middle-rank at the rear. I know it sounds sexist to some, but women should not be allowed to wear the uniform of the Royal Marines, except for the band service.
Joseph HP they are Royal Marines Cadets, part of the Sea Cadet Corps. Teenagers who do this as a hobby, so I think your comments are a little unjust don't you think?
I for one thought these RM cadets did quite well I've seen numerous cadet associations on parade not looking half as good
I like that the Cadets and the Veterans are parading with the active service units.
With the greatest of disrespect for you and your intolerable sexism - get over yourself
