Just watched this all are the way through; it was impressive, exciting and profoundly moving all at once. Britain's military bands are the best in the world - superb musicianship, great panache, impressive discipline - AND a reminder of the nation's past glories. The special days in their calendar, when not just the bands, but the veterans AND the colors of regiments that no longer exist separately, march together are not just impressive, but profoundly moving. Thanks so much for presenting this in its entirety. From an American Anglophile (AND Bandophile!)

The only time Regiments cease to exist is when the Regiments formed by amalgamation from them forget there Regiments history. Meny Regiments when they run promotion courses internally give the attendees lectures on Regimental history and expect those attendees to research there history and give lectures in turn

The North Irish Horse amalgamated to become B Squadron Queen’s own Yeomanry and have since been reorganised again to form a squadron within the Scottish and North Irish Yeomanry. I served on Herrick with some lads from the Horse. They’re top lads and a cracking business-like regiment.

Maternal grandfather and great-uncle were in the North Irish Horse in WW1. He and Uncle Ingram were both wounded. There is a contemporary newspaper report from Armagh reporting the successful person-to- person blood transfusion volunteered by Uncle Ingie saving the life of Canadian soldier who had lost a leg. Years later, my mother recalled a horse that was wild and untameable in Ballywalter where the family had a holiday home, and Grandpa went in and broke the horse.

The Irish have a long and distinguished history in the British Army. Indeed of all 8 regiments in the Household Division only the Irish Guards were formed because of bravery. The Irish people have for centuries been the back bone of the British Army indeed in the Pennisular War apart from the dozen or so Irish Regiments in his army a very high proportion of "English and Lowland Scotish" Regiments personnel where Irish! The United Kingdom has a lot to be proud of its Irish troops over the centuries
