Very smart I know this a daft question but why have 4 of them got blue shirts on and the others all brown Very proud of them God bless them all thank you for posting
The reason for the blue shirt is that it's an indication of them being a higher-ups rank. Brown shirts are usually worn by PVT LCpl Cpl and Sgt (e.g., officers, etc)
@@NormanSilver Heck yes I'm a veteran, nine years, which is why I don't presume to call myself a "hero" like people that won valor awards like the MOH or Victoria cross and literally threw their lives at the enemy to save their friends.
Probably nobody won’t notice but I did. A major screw up call from drill/ swordsman calling colour party right wheel when the party correctly went left wheel towards him. Just saying from brothers across the pond🫡🇨🇦
@@erniearruda8861 ernie, by “swordsman” do you mean the Officer commanding the parade with sword drawn? He gives the command to march on the colour. The officer, the Ensign, carrying the colour and thus in command of the Colour Party responds “Sir”. The parade commander orders “Present Arms”. The Ensign orders “Quick March” then the controversial Left/Right Wheel, then “Halt” and “Present Arms”. The parade commander orders “Slope Arms”. I’ve listened a few times at various volumes. I understand why some hear the command as “Right Wheel” but the Sergeant Major in the rear of the Colour Party doesn’t bat an eyelash. If the Ensign had mistakenly called “Right” the S/M would have assuredly roared “Left, Sir”.
The words of the march , 'Campbellden loch I wish you were whiskey, Campbellden lock ouch aye , Cambellden loch I wish you were whisky , I would drink you dry. ' That's what we used to sing anyway.
Good Luck from Germany 💯

Thank you
True hero's and consumate soldiers too.
How are they heroes just for putting on a uniform? What do you call a guy who throws himself on a grenade?
@@penultimateh766 I'm one of them 40 years too. Yes, they too are hero's. How about Helicopter medics too? Did you serve?

@@penultimateh766 Point well take How about Journalist Al Gore getting a Combat Infantry Badge?
@@NormanSilver That happened??

I think the order "right wheel" was issued by the officer carrying the colour. None the less, it should have been "left wheel".
The command was “Colour Party, by the centre left wheel”.
@@keijomattinen5447 No the colour doesn’t order that command . You can see the lips from the swordsman directing the command.

Looking marvellous 😊
What are the rules for wearing beards? Medical profile?
Permitted since earlier this year. Not too little. Not too much.
yep allowed in meantime but course any conflict where respirators could be required, all beards come off
What's left of the Argylls
Just wondering if you have the video of the Orange Parade in Edinburgh from Saturday?
The words of the march ,
'Campbellden loch I wish you were whiskey,
Campbellden lock ouch aye ,
