I remember this playing every night and morning at a cadet camp in Ontario. This made me feel proud whenever they played it over the speakers.. Can't wait to join the army
Before you Join up, if you haven't already, you should listen to these Bugle Calls played in Minor, or play them yourself on the Piano. Then Watch "All Quite on the Western Front" and play the Major during the Build Up and the Minor when things Go Ary as they Ineveitably do. These Bugle Calls are very Powerful Medicine as any of your Native Ontarians can tell you. You'll be a better Soldier when your 40 rather than 18, and all the Wars Man has fought testify to that. Read some Kipling if you want to know what Soldiering is really About. Don't be hypnotized by all the Glitter and Machismo that Hollywood Pours out.
In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place: and in the sky The larks still bravely singing fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the dead: Short days ago, We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved: and now we lie In Flanders fields! Take up our quarrel with the foe To you, from failing hands, we throw The torch: be yours to hold it high If ye break faith with us who die, We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields
How dare our government now hand our country over to foreign invaders and put them in hotels while our own citizens live on the streets and the poor and old cant afford heat and food. How dare they let the sacrifices be for nothing.
A lil story round this song I sat down, laying my hat on the bench, it you could call it that. I finally sat down turning to my comrades, “Is it over?” I said. They replied, “You can rest now.” From that day since September of 1914 I fought on the trenches one and one, lucky I even made it to this point. I smiled finally, a few million years after the universe was created, it felt like it. I saw my comrades, the ones who died on the Verdun, Ypres or the Somme. I was so happy. They had trumpets as shiny as the sun’s first light, they played this song, poppies emerged from the ground and finally I felt at peace. Finally my running mind, where I sat in the hospital after that battle could rest. If you don’t understand the ending it basically says he was imagining it all or thought he was dreaming but it happened, unfortunately the reason why he thought it is because he died at the end and imagined an ending, all of those alive comrades in his imagination were the dead ones, and the dead ones were alive, playing the last post. The poppies referenced the flanders field. I thought it was nice

@@user-dk2ol7pq6r we have you beat with the Battle of Antietam with 22,717 dead on both Union and Confederate sides and almost split evenly (the Union having 12,410 dead while the Confederacy having 12,051 dead). And that battle only lasted one day.
@@user-dk2ol7pq6r hello, this is eclipsed on another account since the device i was using has broke. im sorry i got the figures wrong i was going of memory about 2 years before. (which was wrong). my mistake.
Standing on my doorstep at 11am today, November 8. My mum started crying and I did too. My grandad was a territorial army soldier and at his funeral he had a full military sendoff. This was played as his coffin was lowered into the ground. 😔😰😭
I still use the Last Post to remind my self the day is done. They played this every night around 11p.m. while I was in basic training at Ft. Knox, KY. There were some nights this is all it took to get to sleep.
My great grandad was in the RAF during WWII and my great Grandma was an engineer for the Army, they have recently died in the last few years, my great Grandma lived till 98, Thank You For Your Service Rest In Piece
Thank you for this, I played it today after having my own remeberence ceremony in the garden for my friends. Had a whisk, poured one out for my friends then stood there remembering the good times with them. Again thank you for the last post.
I am an American who has studied history and the various wars, and I have an uncle (S/SGT James W. Spence) who served in the 78th Infantry Regiment, KIA on March 3, 1945 at Weisweiler, Germany. However hearing this bugle post one cannot escape the instant feeling of admiration and loss of all those allied soldiers who gave their lives in defense of freedom, it would do the youth of today good service to hear and understand what this post is all about. We owe them this solemn honor perpetually.
Yesterday I said my final goodbye to my hero, my grandad who was in the 8th parachute regiment 6th airborne division. Rest in eternal peace brave soldier
R.I.P Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II. Her majesty died peacefully at Balmoral on September 8th, 2022 at around 13:30pm. The new king, King Charles III now reigns over *17* countries. Queen Elizabeth II died at the age of 96, old age struck her life. Let us all have a 2 minutes silence for Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II and all of the deceased soldiers of the war. RIP Elizabeth Regina & Deceased War Fighters
My great grandfather fought for the British in wwI or wwII (cant remember right now I am pretty sure it was wwII) he was injured in war but thankfully survived he would later on marry the nurse who helped him I am thankful that he could return home rest in peace Ronald Robertson and everyone who died in both wars and thank you for your service
They shall all rest in peace they was all very good men to help him in the army and it was really emotional listening too it today because I found out that my great great grandad and great grandad and grandad and grandma was in the army until my great great grandad pasted away in ww1 because he got shot and gotten blown up by a grenade my great grandad was in ww2 and died by a grenade and then my grandad was in the navy army and survived and he is still her today and I am so thankful for him and the rest of my family members who helped in the war and my grandma who survived in the navy army but died of lung cancer in 2018 You may all rest in peace Amen 🙏
To my grandpa, even though I never got to meet you I always felt your love strong in my heart telling me to fight on. It is because of your fighting spirit racing through my body that I have beaten death, I hope you kept my mom safe and my sister as well as family. I honour what you did for us and will always remember you Love you lots grandpa/pops
The beginning kind of sounds like the shofarot that are blown during the High Holy Days. May Queen Elizabeth’s homegoing have been safe and peaceful as she was called home.

Today my old friend James Clark was laid to rest near Breakish Isle of Skye. He was 99 years old and had been a Lovat Scout ( commandos ). Serving under Simon Fraser, 15th Lord Lovat. He saw action on D- day at Pegasus Bridge. Also he was a Highland Gentleman through and through. It was a privilege to know him.Freedom means so much. This is what was achieved by the end of the campaign. So thank you and your colleagues so very much. Most of all, the Lord who enabled us to defeat an intensely evil regime.
I'm not in the forces but I commemorate all of these memorials to remember what happened in those dark days and how much was lost. I use it as a reminder of the ultimate, for want is a better word, futility of war. The pain and sadness on the face of those who fought reminds me that it could and should be avoided. As a species, we have to do better and yet so many want a return to the conditions and mentality that those veterans fought to end. And some of those people are those they fought to liberate, who seem to think it's ok for them to do it.
I wonder if "The Last Post" is older than "Taps". I believe that "Taps" dates back to the American Civil War. Does anyone out there know how old "The Last Post" is?
Really? Why a British bugle call and not Taps? I'm curious. Someone else commented that Last Post is used at Ft Knox also. Is it something recent to use Last Post in place of Taps?

The torch: be yours to hold it high
If ye break faith with us who die,
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow

@Sandwich Cheddar How mean can you be
May he rest in peace
My Grandad was in the Royal Navy, and he too had this play (by a bugle player) at his funeral.
I feel it to bud as a Grandad in a RAF.
No one asked
Very touching
But UA-cam please remove the hiphop advert that precedes this - it is incongruent and frankly a little disrespectful
My great grandfather was a police officer during British ruled Malaya.
Rest in peace

I knew a simple soldier boy
Who grinned at life in empty joy,
Slept soundly through the lonesome dark,
And whistled early with the lark.
In winter trenches, cowed and glum,
With crumps and lice and lack of rum,
He put a bullet through his brain.
No one spoke of him again.
You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye
Who cheer when soldier lads march by,
Sneak home and pray you'll never know
The hell where youth and laughter go.
