    They join up young, wet behind the ears and 5.2 tall. Give it a year and the are over 6ft and strapping! I dont know what they put in their porridge but it sure does the job! Ive seen it with my own mince pies. Didnt they look great? They are so smart and in step. Well trained. Makes me proud.

    Wow, very good drill! All in step and so damn sharp! What a proud bunch of troops! From Canada, I salute you brave soldiers.. Carrying on a long tradition for the Proud British military. In the War of 1812, many redcoats from Britain died fighting for the freedom of Canada, which did not exists at the time... If not for these brave British soldiers, Canada might have been another United State. The Native American warriors under Tecumseh also did thier part. To both parties, I thankyou!

    I am sitting waiting for the new year of 2012 planning a nice family get together for new years day not worrying about secret police turning up at the door not frightened,spending too much money saying what ever the hell I choose all because of the bravery and courage of people like those in the video .When next you pass a war memorial remember what life could have been like if not for those willing to defend the right they do not fight for glory but for liberty and I for one am grateful.

  • @erj573
    @erj573 11 років тому +7

    I don't feel the need to nor will I defend myself on my comments. They were in response to a sniveling, cowardly comment about our soldiers and I won't tolerate that garbage. America's soldiers over the centuries have shown some of the finest displays of bravery ever, and often for people and in countries not their own. The politics of America's conflicts aside, her soldier's heroism is unquestioned. Bottom line is - I didn't come watch this video to insult your fighting men, DON'T INSULT OURS.

    • @JH-ck1nr
      @JH-ck1nr 2 роки тому +2

    My son toured Afghanistan in 2013 with 8/9 RAR, due to the government
    not wanting to upset the Muslims ( then a labour gov ) their march in
    parade was cancelled and a very very ordinary march in at Enoggera
    barracks was substituted. I hope for the sake of future generations you
    will never allow it to happen there.

    I wish some people in the coments would understand the Royal Marines are part of the Royal Navy and not the British Army.
    These men are based just outside of Plymouth 42 or Four Two Commando .The history of the Royal Marines dates back to 1664 and they just celebrated their 359th anniversary.
    The Royal Marines and the Navy have always played a part in the history of Plymouth.
