NZ Military Forces might be small, but they carry themselves with the dignity, passion and integrity of soldiers long gone. The sight of a Lemon Squeezer still brings a tear to my eye.
Never single occasion that these send offs don’t make me sob. As a British veteran from a long line of veterans, I believe that all fallen warrior should be sung to their grave. It’s what cultures have always done and it’s good to see it still carried out in some places. I don’t know you, but I know of you by the the respect of your brothers. Take your rightful place in the hall of the fallen. I’ll meet you there.
Oh, how I wish that when my brother U.S. Marines were down there during WWII they had adopted this amazing, and intense way of sending our warriors HOME! It would have been such an amazing and heart building thing for us young Recruits at San Diego or Paris Island to learn these chants, and what they meant for the journey a fallen warrior needed to hear! Sometimes people have this idea that "primitive people" don't know how to show faith, and devotion to the God that lives and breathes, and works to make them human...but I have found that this is not true. People know how to worship GOD, in His 1,000 different faces, and in 10,000 different ways of faith. By the way....God bless you all. Reverend M.A. Lauer.
My god....!! That extracted tears of respect from me. I really really felt that inside my soul. What a great way to send a warrior on his way. Big respect, from a humble UK Veteran.
Buckey I don't know you personally, much respect & love to you & your whanau, for your duty as soilder & protecting our country, Nga mihi nui i te Toa O Tumutaenga
The march the pallbearers did was exactly the same as the bearers who carried Queen Elizabeth II. It's nice to know our soldiers get that respect too. Aroha ❤
I just wish I could express how beautiful and moving I found this. It reaches deep inside you and just touches your heart. The love and respect they all showed for their brother in arms. Beautiful. Just absolutely beautiful. Now.. I need to go get a Kleenex. 😭🤧
Very impressive, much respect to the deceased, our warrior brothers Pakeha and all do us proud , a small nation Aoetearoa NZ full of warriors to this day.
Those are Myths my mate. All will be judged in the end and we are without excuse best believe that. There’s only one of two places my mate and that so called place “Valhalla” ain’t one of them💯
This is a strong send off for a brother in arms. It is incredible. I will be sending off my brother this week from a illness. Best wishes to the family of the fallen.

I really wish the Haka tradition would spread around the world. Or maybe I was just born in the wrong country. Such a beautiful expression of raw and genuine Humanity.
Deapest condolences to this amazing nabs family friends and loved ones, I'm 47 and terminally sick , I'm not scared of dying, but I'm petrified that it's going to hurt, I hope that my guide will be brave like this hero and all the other heros who played down their live's so we can sleep safely at night. Love prayers to all from Truro Cornwall UK
I think this is the most emotional Haka I have ever seen … I’m bawling … “ We’ll carry you out BROTHER “ … to the edge of the base to his family but they weren’t done there …. A Haka to send him off … TO ALL THE WOMEN AND MEN IN ANY FORCE KEEPING US SAFE … from 🇨🇦 MUCH RESPECT AND LOVE AND PRAYERS !!!! 💯❤️🤙🙏
That shit is sooooo wicked!! I would honestly run away if I would encounter someone doing that ready to fight me. I would be like nope amigo not today adios!!
A very moving tribute. However, I noticed that the female soldier on the left side of the screen, whilst the Haka was being performed, was not bending knees and remained standing for most of the ceremony. Is there a reason for this.
You'll notice that all women in this haka are standing in parts, they have different protocols than men when it comes to haka, they also do not pūkana with the protruding tongue, they frown the mouth and widen and roll the eyes. Kia ora
With much respect from a United Staes Army retired vet.
thankyou for yor service
What a send off to a warrior. Doesn't matter where in the world we serve, we all have our own way to honor our heroes, UK veteran
Now, THAT'S a send off!!!
The Haku sendoff brings as many tears to my eyes as the playing of Taps for a US military funeral.

Gotta love the Kiwis and the Hakka. Great send off for a comrade in arms. Respect from a Brit in Texas. God speed warrior.
Such majesty and passion.
In 1985 I had the opportunity to serve alongside the NZ Army and the privilege of observing the Haka. Truely a powerful and moving honor.
thank you for your service
Très très belle hommage, des guerriers qui laisse partir un frère...

Absolutely astonishing the best haka I've ever seen rest in peace brother fly high
Massive respect to the Gunners! You sent your Brother off proud.
Honestly, the best Haka I've seen and a fitting tribute to a warrior.
Ubique.
Why did he died
The march the pallbearers did was exactly the same as the bearers who carried Queen Elizabeth II. It's nice to know our soldiers get that respect too. Aroha ❤
New Zealand has a culture and they are proud of it.
I just wish I could express how beautiful and moving I found this. It reaches deep inside you and just touches your heart. The love and respect they all showed for their brother in arms. Beautiful. Just absolutely beautiful. Now.. I need to go get a Kleenex. 😭🤧
Such Patriotism is to be admired and is sadly lacking in the UK - RIP Warrior - Valhalla awaits ..
No it’s not
And love and respect for the fallen
That's a send off.Respect from 🇬🇧. God accept brother bucky into your kingdom.
Very impressive, much respect to the deceased, our warrior brothers Pakeha and all do us proud , a small nation Aoetearoa NZ full of warriors to this day.
Don't know u brother and ur from another country. Valhalla welcomes u. Good journey.
Respect 🤟😎👍
Valhalla will be Happy 🙂
Called to Valhalla to feast with his brothers at Odin's table
Those are Myths my mate. All will be judged in the end and we are without excuse best believe that. There’s only one of two places my mate and that so called place “Valhalla” ain’t one of them💯
@@ibringtherain7669 You are not and never have been a warrior for your country. Semper Fi
I don’t know if there is any better way to send a warrior to Valhalla than with a Haka… It’s so raw and primal
This is a strong send off for a brother in arms. It is incredible. I will be sending off my brother this week from a illness. Best wishes to the family of the fallen.
On the right, a female soldier is crying while doing a haka
Maybe he was a friend of a fallen soldier
Thank you for the sad and beautiful video
Wow what a way to send off a warrior
Amazingly emotional watch
People should remember Upham VC. A double VC. This is a great example of the New Zealand Military. Never forgotten. From a retired British soldier.

Just love the kiwis and the haka .From South Africa . Great tribute to a fallen comrade .❤❤
einfach wundervoll!
thank you for your service to our country.
😭😭😭😭😭😭With great respect from the UK.
보는 내내 눈물이 나네요..
떠나 보내는 이들의 아쉬움과 슬픔이 간절히 보입니다..
There is NO OTHER CHANT MORE POWERFUL THAN THE HAKA!!
Rather have the Scottish bagpipes at my funeral, the haka is all about violence and hatred should be banned
We will never forget you, or your sacrifice.
A better way to show sadness than crying. RIP
WOW!! Very very amazing!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
That's the best send off I've seen in along time from UK 🇬🇧 2023
A very classy goodby. My All Father welcome you into Valhalla's great banquet hall.
Fly high brother 🕊️🌿
Stand easy soldier, a peaceful journey 🇬🇧
You guy's have done him proud, duty done Gunner RIP
And THAT is how you send a warrior to Valhalla
Love to our Kiwi mates from across the ditch
ANZACS always.
Respect, a true warriors send off from the heart.

I'd like friends to do a haka like this for me when the time comes.
He was a warrior God speed.
This is honor !
