Viva Chile. 👍👍
As a swede i like this. We had close cultural exchange with Germany for over a 1000 years. And Germans should be proud of their history. And even if the marching is so what they all march with pride!
I'm glad to see this level of enthusiasm for this type of parade. it was great to watch. I also appreciated all the "Paradeschritt," and those participants who were making the extra effort - and extra breaths - to make it look great!!
Toll, einfach nur toll!
Gottseidank gibt es noch Orte wo unsere Traditionen gehegt und gepflegt werden!
Good to see the locals preserving Prussian traditions! Unlike the Bundeswehr, these people are doing so much more to keep them alive.
Thats just not true. The Bundeswehr does a lot.
@@flylikealbatross7441 Um, no. They don't use the stechschritt, they don't wear Prussian style brocade belts, they wear 90% berets. They don't even use Prussian-German cockades on their hat, I've only seen one type and its only used on officer hats. Most of their hats don't follow the traditional shape of Prussian/Imperial German Army/Reichswehr
/Wehrmacht hat designs. Some of their uniforms look like janitor uniforms. The locals have done a much better job, they actually wear traditional Prussian uniforms with their own local design.
@@Rustycaddy17 Rustycaddy The Stechschritt is not in use by light infantry in which tradition the Bundeswehr is (Lützower Jäger). They also used barrets btw so tge barrets are traditional. Additionally Stechschritt is totally outdated and only a load to the soliders.
The pickelhaube was also not in use by the nazis which you say were so troaditional.
The crocade is also not used on the pickelhaube. But it is on the Bundeswehrs Schiffchen, Tellermütze and Schirmmütze.
The current helmet follows the line of the M16 and M35 helmet and unifies the best of all helmet technology.
Brocadebelts are something I ve never seen. Maybe you can inform me on that.
Additionally the Bundeswehr existed loger than any other German army so it has its right to have its own traditions. Let that sink in.
@@Rustycaddy17 Why does it matter? It’s like trying to tell the US military to preserve tricorn hats.
@@flylikealbatross7441 I never said anything about the pickelhaube, don't know why you even brought that up. I am aware berets were used in the Prussian Army, but very rarely. The problem here is the fact that the Bundeswehr uses too many berets. There are hundreds of traditional hats and helmets to choose from, and they decide to use mostly berets, which is pathetic. I also forgot to mention, the Bundeswehr also doesn't use the Paradeschritt
. While the Bundeswehr remains as the oldest German army as of right now, it is ridiculous to ignore the traditions of the previous armies. In fact, the Bundeswehr and the Volksarmee were both successors to the Wehrmacht, which in turn was the direct successor of the Reichswehr, which was a successor of the Imperial German Army, which as you know, was the successor of the legendary Prussian Army. The brocade belts were worn since the Prussian Army, even the Volksarmee used these beautiful belts, while it is completely absent in today's Bundeswehr.
Es ist sehr schön zu sehen, dass Sie diese Tradition bewahren. LG aus Chile.
Danke das ihr die preußische Tradition am Leben hält!
Felicitaciones por conservar sus tradiciones prusianas ...las amo , greeting from chile .
Alemania un país hermoso, sin duda lo visitaré un día, saludos desde México 🇲🇽 🤠
And the Colonel Generals last words at the conclusion, “To the beer hall Hans! And don’t spare the horses!!”
Very nice Silvianer-Marsch by Heinz Schulz and marching!
i have no idea how i landed on this video.... but it's awesome!
Most interesting. The opening march was, if I am not mistaken, the Communist GDR’s ,,Sylvianer Marsch”. An excellent tune. Fascinating. And really, an excellent performance. Bravo!
No tienen nada que envidiar a la Bundeswehr, en algunos aspectos son más marciales y además conservan el estilo prusiano. Un gran país Alemania.
Before you comment, inform yourself!
Those are civilian shooter clubs. Mostly founded in napoleonic times as city guards and volunteers to the local army. These Uniforms are not military uniforms, they're based on regional traditions and the kingdoms army. Today they're just doing shooting competitions and parades to hold up tradition. That's an bad example tho
These people are great, honestly, I wish I could attend such a parade. I'm glad these people are preserving Prussian military traditions, and their local traditions as well!
If the Wachbataillon is being redesignated as line infantry, the goose step will return.
@@AkallebethWatcher Yes, I'm serving in the Wachbataillon, were even in the tradition of the IR9 of the Wehrmacht and Prussian 1st Foot gurad regiment so would be possible
I was very surprised to hear the March of the Grenadier guards. Proud too :D
What a dilemma for me. Half German, half English. 2 lots of tradition to be proud of lol

Practice.Practice and again practice Paraden Gus step..🇺🇸👋
Unglaublich, der Schützenverein kommt besser rüber als die Bundeswehr.
P M bullshit, deren Marsch ist viel zu unpräzise und nicht gleichzeitig. Ein gut ausgebildeter Zug stiehlt denen die Show.
Da fängt es schon an, seit wann gibt es gut ausgebildete Züge bei der Bundeswehr. Ich lacht mich schlapp. Wenn ich das Fitnessprogramm von diesen Nieten die sich Bundeswehrsoldaten nenne sehe, könnte ich weinen. Ich hab 1985/1986 gedient. Wir Wehrpflichtige waren fit und wir konnten marschieren. Der jetzige Schrotthaufen taugt nur was fürs Papier. Und so was nennt sich Berufsarmee. Die Engländer haben eine richtige Berufsarmee. Die Bundeswehr wurde von der vdL zur Kindergartenarmee gemacht.

Wait is the first song they played was NVA parade March?
Yes it's Sylvanier Marsch, it was played during the vehicles part of the parade.
Wow! The Grandfather’s parade!...
Perhaps they need to take a trip to Chile and get re-aquainted with the "old ways" and uniforms?
I mean as long as it looks like the Kaiser Reich and not the illegitimate Nazi Reich they are not breaking any anti Nazi laws.
@@Bluesonofman they have nothing to do with the prussian army or wehrmacht you ignorant fuck. Both of you.
Those arent soldiers, those also arent miltary uniforms. Those are civilian very old ,,Schützenvereine", Shooters clubs back then city guards and volunteers to the army. They have their own traditional local unifroms
Dude it's OBVIOUS these guys aren't soldiers. Thought they were just a bunch of guys from the local pub.

BEHALTE DIE DEUTSCHEN TRADITIONEN
This is impressive and I sense history and tradition here, but can someone explain in more detail what is being celebrated/commemorated here pls?
"Schützenvereine" were founded in the 18th century in the "Befreiungskriege" against Napoleon. They were basically Militias which every city had. After the franco-germanic-wars they kept their traditions and do shooting as a sport. Nearly every german village has one. Once a year they meet and shoot on a paper pheasant. The one who shoots it down is the "Schützenkönig". He pays for the big party "The Schützenfest". The parade you can see here are for his honour. So not real military anymore, but civilians.
SUPER :-))))) Geil.,,,,Daumen hoch... :) 😂👍👍👍😂👍👍👍😂👍👍👍😂👍👍👍😂👍👍👍😂👍👍👍😂👍👍👍😂👍👍👍

Let's party like it's 1871!
Super!!
Chile...eso es en Providencia!!!
Superbe...j adore
Would somone be so kind as to explain what this parade is about and who these people are? I assume the chaps in green are Jagers
There are many Schützenvereine Germany. They originated from centuries before and have been the local home defence. Each of the uniforms here reperesent a other club who pay tribute to a old served member who was in a top level organisation. They today usually have one week in the year were they hold their club ceremonies with a lot of parading, drinking and dancing.
The most typical uniform is white trousers and a green jacket the blue ones are mostly originated from Prussian reservists. The medals and tisel are awarded by shooting competitions - on a wooden bird high above and the one who shots it down is the club king for the season - this gives much honour but also hughe bills (usually min 5.000) for drinks who have to be spend. The anual ball is the highlight for the womans - full evening dress.
Alles große Kinder!!!
Prussians still walk...er...goose step, among us.
Faszinierend! Besser als alles, was man die Baundeswehr machen lässt. Hut ab!
Sehr Gut!!!
Ist das grevenbroich kapellen oder Moers kapellen..
Please excuse my questions in English as my German ist nicht sehr gut. First: What is this organization and does it perform historical reenactment in addition to marching? Second: is the march step (commonly called in my country a "goose step") used permitted, and if so, under what circumstances? Third: which German state of the past had those uniforms? Prussia? Saxony? Imperial 1870-1918?
John Morrison It‘s a shooter‘s Club, commonly founded during the napoleonic wars to organise volunteers. They had their own uniforms and ranks. The „Lützower Jäger“ even used black, red and gold on their uniforms. These volunteer-regiments formed Clubs after the war to stay trained if they were needed again and so this tradition was created.
They appear to be inspired by the Armies of the late 1800's. you can see even better examples by looking up the Arm of Chile or Ejercito de Chile. Chile hired German general in the 1880' erea to teach their army to march and fight. This "goose step" may originate with units are far as far back as Frederick the Great!
@@raymaurer1744 Please inform your self. Chilean Uniforms have nothing to do with german ones. These here arent prussian uniforms. Theyre local traditonal unifroms
@@Marco-bf4uu Hello! Just read the history, and look at the Chilean uniforms of today. Some great UA-cam videos will show the German "pikelhaube" (spiked helmet) which went out of use early in the First War War (1914-1918); the sky-blue uniform coat of the Chilean Dragoons with lances common to all German cavalry up to WWI. There are also unit of infantry and a band wearing the coal scuttle style helmet of WWII.
@@Marco-bf4uu The band leader who first appears wears the pikelhaube with a plume crest. The mounted personalities wear the light blue dragoon coat, with a modified German genera fore-and-aft bicorn. Note the "wings" on the shoulders of some of the bandsmen - "Swallows nests" as a translation of ?schwalbenestren? since seem on the Prussian army since the Napoleonic Wars.
Maybe the titles could be written in English as well as German. My college German is very rusty. I remember one word in particular - bier!. What's up with the goose steppping?
The "Schützen" were militias that secured the smaller towns from enemies, as the government troops couldn't defend every town... and the goose stepping is good old prussian tradition :D
Tradition, goosestepping goes back centuries.
I take it that this is the start of the 'Fest' season of good times in the bier tents ? I spent 6 years in Germany with the British Army and loved it.
Woodrow Elmore --- Goosestep is an old tradition in many places
"The step originated in Prussian military drill in the mid-18th century and was called the Stechschritt (literally, "piercing step") or Stechmarsch. German and Soviet military advisors spread the tradition throughout the world in the 19th and 20th centuries. The goose step is now used by the militaries of over seventy countries, comprising three-fifths of the world's population"
Da müssen vor der Parade schon einige Hektoliter Bier geflossen sein! Wie viele Sauerstoffzelte und Defibrillatoren gab es auf der Strecke?
What was lady doing grabbing that horse and rider ?.
20:46...wtf? Was ist da passiert?
Schützenwesen aufrecht erhalten
I thought that for sure this was happening in Eastern Germany where the Prussian influence, especially in military things, is still very strong. But no, they are from some little bump in the road, "Kapellen" a half hour drive from Dusseldorf and half an hour from the Dutch border. About as West as you could get in Germany without speaking Dutch. (and many probably can). I wonder if they come from all around I mean Kapellen doesn't look like it could support this many "marching people" within its limits. It is very strange indeed......
The DDR did everything they could in order to destroy all reminends of prussia. Parades like this were forbidden in east germany
The Western German Parts, espacially Westphalia, lower Saxony and the rhine-province have these cultural events, called "Schützenfest". Im from this region as well and in my home town (30.000 Inhabitans) we have 19 auf these clubs. So its not a big deal if they are all from the sam town as well.
Super Video weiter so 👍
EHREN BLEIBT MIT DEN PRUSSISCHEN EHREN
music a bit boring which i cannot understand as Germany has the best marches in the world, and by a very very large margin.
The best Marches are from austria!
Que lugar y de que país son
SUPER
At last, a German band that's not afraid to look German (except for the picked caps)
memikell Yeah, the part of not being afraid of history? Bundeswehr forgo its Wehrmacht and Reichwehr links, but not the Imperial Army. WW2 is their dark moments and they do not want to repeat 1933 to 1945.
WW1 Germany had spiked hats. Long live the Kaiser from the American Republic
@@Bluesonofman But those arent fucking soldiers. They have their own traditions. Theyre based on the army tho.
No one here is except our army.
Pickelhauben sind vom Kaiserreich !
These marchers should eat more red cabbage with their Sauerbraten and less potato balls.
Ok dude you win. You got the biggest camera on the parade route now would you get out of the way. You are blocking my view

19:06 Die Frau richtig am Abgehen! :DDD
hahahahahahahahahahaha und sich die diggen da auf dem wagen beömmeln :D der arme junge
sieht doch gut aus, was die alten Herren noch hinkriegen....den Stechschritt hätte man sich vor kurzer Zeit noch nicht getraut und auch nicht zugetraut...Gut gemacht....
Silvianer-Marsch!
Respekt
Also was ich verstehe, ist, daß man eine Frau braucht die das Pferd führt, weil Mann nicht reiten kann. Wer salutiert, handelt sich einen Ehekrach ein (siehe 19:00 ). Den Rest der Veranstaltung müßte mir mal ein Ethnologe erklären.
sad to see that they've seemingly forgotten how to march properly, other than that, great festivities
War Horst Schlemmer nicht da ??
8:55 - Marsch des Britischen Grenadiers!
Just an aside, the Australian Army Band play a medley at passing out parades which includes Peusens Gloria.
Warum wird der Stechschritt angewandt, wenn die meisten ihn nicht beherrschen oder es nicht mal schaffen eine grade Linie zu laufen? aber sonst cool
What language is this????
This is German. Maybe it can divide a little bit from the standard high German because there is some dialect in it.
May I ask you guy (any) that after WW2 1945, USA keep an eye on the Japanese untill today, USA still have bases in Japan and Korea.....How about Germany? I know that Germany divided by 2 like my old country Vietnam and so Korea ( our 3 poor countries huh??) and ...Do the USA or anybody else keep an eye on German or not and German have the right to have your military or just like Japan???? How about Italy??? Sorry if this is a sensitive questions. Thank you for let me know, I am a Vietnamese refugee who lived in USA, ran away from communist in 1975 with my family!. Thanks again!
Since the unification in 1990, Germany is an souvereign country, who has every rights, except to own nuclear weapons and to claim territory that was formerly German. Germany is now part of the NATO and an ally of the US. Italy was allied with the British and the US since 1943 so there was nothing like a special treatment.
Interesting but methinks some of the guys need more exercise like me, I assume this is an re-enactment?
This is average people in costumes pretending to enact "tradition", looking for a reason for collective massive drinking and calling it Schützenfest.
Fun fact: most of them refused service in the army and do not perform shooting as sports.
@@locobacano9462 It's rather about drinking. And playing military parading.

Sylvianer marsch! DDR!
I am surprised they are allowed to march like this. Perhaps they excuse it on the grounds of historical reenactment?
I see literally nothing wrong with what they are doing
Thosw are historcial shooter clubs. Paradestep is used on every german parade
Swaebischer Heimwehr?
I wonder what Frau von der Leyen thinks of this, stechschritt and all ? Maybe some of the groups should have passed by singing some of the old songs which she banned the Bundeswehr from singing. Panzerlied maybe.
Not the army so she has nothing to say
The Stechschritt can‘t be exercised because the Bundeswehr is Light Infantry. Also, Von der Leyen has not complete power over the Bundeswehr. The Generalinspekteur mostly does it...
любят немцы маршировать )))) Навыки ни куда не денешь....столетия втолковывали)))
Engländer??? bei 9:00
Why they looks so casual and unprofessional ?
Please forgive my rudeness and ignorance, because I'm a little confused.
Does Germany people already forget how to do a goose step ?
These are civil marksmen/shooting clubs! An old german tradition since the napoleonic wars.
The Bundeswehr has prussian traditions:
- Drill
-Light Infantry(thats why they dont goose step)
-Barrets(1st used in the Napoleonic Wars)
-Uniforms(field-grey), (Marine and Air Force uniforms are basicly the same as the Wehrmacht/ Reichswehr ones)
-Rifle(Karrabiner K 98K)
-Marching Music
-Wachbattalion("guard batalion", prussian "1. Garderegiment zu Fuß" )
If you think that goose stepping or wearing a Pickelhaube/Stahlhelm are the only prussian traditions than you should probably shut your mouth because you dont have any idea.
