First part of bugler calls by a reenactor from Germany, named Jan Berger, during a camp organized by the french association 20th Maine. Enjoy the sound !

Well rehhearsed and well done. Summer of 1969 I was with H&S 81's 1/3 = line company we were attached to in Norhtern I Corp had (of all things) a bugler. This man is as good as he was way back when. Thank you Jarhead
nine minutes worth of bugle calls for these poor pawns on the ground to memorize! Jeez, I'd have a hard enough time just getting the damned musket to work without having to remember all those calls. but all kidding aside, thanks for a very informative video. Field General: "Fire at will, men!" - - - Soon to be dead Trooper: " Which one is Will?"
A German citizen, member of a French association and reenacting an American bugler from civil war. ^^ That's a good thing, since there were German and French soldiers fighting on each side, during that war.
Well ussually the guys in charge of that wouldn't be roght there on the front lines. More like in the back, or the flanks or maaaaybe the middle lines. And they had a person directing the bugles and drums so they can play the orders. I'm not a renactor myself, but K went to a militarized school from my country for six years and I played the bugle during a lot of mh time there. You don't learn the commands as little funny songs, but as orders. It is a whole language. You can direct a march by blowing the correct information ln the bugle. Its pretty cool.
As long as a few people nearby remember any particular one, I'd imagine can see what they're doing. You probably pick it up fairly quickly. Plus, wouldn't this be part of training?
Thanks for posting all the Begle calls - I need to review these each time I hit the Field - Enjoyed the video *LIKED* and *SUBSCRIBED* See you on the field, at the range, or around the camp fire pards --- *1st Minnesota Sharpshooters*
This brings back strange stirrings and feelings for me. I seem to recall these sounds very well. Long has it been since I have heard the sound of the bugle calling men to battle.
I'll stick to the crazy Scotsman that played his pipes leading his unit at the Normandy landing in 1944. That took balls. Remember, the enemy had the same musicians too. Please think before you talk.
The Bugler may be from Germany, but I hear no German accent in his words. The English "J" sound plays hell with them, just as the "L" worries Asians to no end.
Beautiful. Thank you. I'm saving this to show my grandchildren who love trying to blow a bugle and don't have a clue. I have them on video, but we laugh because they are so bad. They need to see what a real bugler can do!
That's the whole idea of a bugler. They are loud enough that the troops at the front can hear the bugle calls while the buglers remain behind the lines receiving their orders from the commanding officers.
Note sure of the USA Bugle which appears to be a cross bred between a bugle and trumpet in style. A British Army Bb Bugle has five notes and the British Cavalry Eb Trumpet has severn.
I know it's been 2 years but, he's a German citizen in France reenacting an AMERICAN soldier in the AMERICAN Civil War, listing the calls in English- it's American; but a lot of the calls were inspired/ripped off of French calls
Question, the "Charge" heard here (and also heard in the charge scene of the movie Glory) is so different from the stereotypical cavalry bugle charge sound. Is there a specific name for the specific charge bugle song heard in this video to differentiate it from the other?
@@FlyingTooFast At least someone else noticed. Then there's even the bugle charge sound heard in "Charge of the Light Brigade" and "Waterloo" that is clearly a cavalry charge but also different from the stereotypical one. It's a series of three notes that goes higher and higher! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7vlcuvrM1po.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cBiUWQ5YLQ4.html Three different songs, all with the same meaning of "charge" Quite frustrating!
You'd hardly want the infantry to be following orders intended for the cavalry nearby, and vice versa. Many commands have specific cadences intended to specify their intended recipients, which is the case here.
@@POTUSJimmyCarter So it just so happens that, frustratingly, many of the videos on youtube don't specify the caveat that they are bugle calls for cavalry, and that there aren't that many videos on the bugle calls for infantry specific ones.
Obviously, some bugle calls changed over the years while many others became obsolete when armies modernized. Those calls were correct for the period in which they were played just as the calls we know today are correct for us.
I got mine from my dad's dad, who was a Marine in the '20s and the Minnesota State Guard in WW2. It was a gift for joining a Boy Scout Troop. 50 years later I still play it and love playing it even more so. I was my troop's first Bugle, got the badge, and became an Eagle Scout.
I do that still, as a camp staffer. My bugle is a C. G. Conn grandpa gave me from his days in the state guard as a gift for becoming a Boy Scout, got the badge, became the troop's first bugler, and made Eagle Scout. God, I love to bugle.
It still has to loop up to the bell either way. Mine is double looped and upside down just looks better. In 50 years of bugling, I hadn't noticed the difference.
Ahhh the most despised man in the service!!!! The Bugular.Also u notice that during westerns when the Cavalry charges how loud and annoying that thing could be then when he gets shot u root for the Indians for knocking off that racket
As I recall in one Indian war skirmish in Nebraska, where the unit was wiped out, the only dead soldier that was not mutilated was the bugler because he fought fiercely to the end and the natives honored his bravery against the odds. It is normal to love Taps and Hate Reveille Remember too that they are using a movie set where the sound is more concentrated than out in the open due to sound equipment. It was likely a recording that made the bugle sound louder than life.
Thats why there are Regiments and Companies, so that the Unit is not too large or spread too far to even hear the Command order. Also i think fighting in 1 giant line vs 1 giant line is pretty pointless. Especially since the arty would be having a field day if thats how it was fought.
