@icecoldtoalex Sitting here saying "get that bend out of your elbow" and "90° to the ground get that arm up!!!" They did not show the halt as well but if you listen I think it was called on the right foot but they finished on their left foot and not by bringing the right down.
be that as it may Kchishol, but that doesn't change the fact that they're playing *_SCOTLAND THE BRAVE!_* ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GowMI4wvmU4.html&ab_channel=Scottishtam (at least that is what i get it too, xD) lo and fucking behold, it is STB, xD another comment just said it is, :P nothing wrong about that of cause, but it's the _Canadians_ who are playing _Scotland's_ unofficial national anthem that's a lil confusing for me,
My dad told me that marching with a band was one of the highlights of army service, he said that you feel like you have a strenght march across entire country.
Here in Italy especially in the Abruzzi region is a town called Ortona... The people of Ortona have a very deep debt with the Canadians... They fought proudly door to door, man to man against the Wehrmacht during WW2... I try every year to visit the graves of those young lads that gave their lives in the Canadian WW2 cemetery... God bless Canada...
As much as I enjoy this movie the concept of the Americans being a bunch of rowdy thugs and convicts is ridiculous. This deviation from history was added because of the success of the motion picture of the dirty dozen which should come out the previous year. In reality the Americans were indeed a diverse group of outdoorsman…. Woodsman, lumberjacks, cowboys, a hardy band of adventurous but not criminals as presented in this movie. But Hollywood needed to have a stark contrast between Americans and the Canadians so they invented that aspect. In reality the Canadians and Americans got along very well from the beginning. They became an extremely effective and cohesive fighting force.
@@SinghausMilHistory actually the contrast was supposed to show the difference between the training in the American army and culture compared to the British training and culture...as Canada had a more regimented/conservative military discipline structured on an older reactionary style from the British Empire. The Americans were seen as less disciplined and thier military not as rigid, more liberal. There are alot of accounts of this from the second world war from allies and Nazis....some British military brass even looking down at the Americans because they had semi-automatic Garands and acted as though that lead to lack of fire discipline compared to the Lee Enfield.
They were barely considered a country let alone a military. Canada paid and earned their respect from all nations. Terrible to see nations military especially one with such a history as Canada get torn down.
@@halidehelux5221plus there’s the fact that the American soldiers contributed to roughly 80% of alcohol related shenanigans during shore leave. they would go into town, get blind drunk and either get into a fight or get a local woman pregnant. I always tell people that the reason why Germany and Japan were able to rebuild so quickly after the war is thanks to the American soldiers stationed in those countries, first from all the bars and prostitutes and then from all the fast food restaurants
This is how gentlemen should arrive! As a Hungarian, I have visited Scottland couple of times, I spent my honeymoon in Edinburgh. And couple years ago I was there just because for the trooping the color. Only good memories. Cheers!
I remember watching this movie as a kid with my Dad. As he was in the Canadian Army, he showed us how he marched just like these soldiers. He also played the bagpipes. He was assigned guarding German prisoners in Vancouver BC during WWII.
The Netherlands for the largest part was liberated by the Canadians, whom we’ll always have in our hearts! As well as the Polish, the Brits, the Americans, the French and the Belgians!
I'm a Canadian vet. This scene always makes me cry and I don't know why lol. I guess I just don't see much respect for our military history in TV and movies and its really powerful and touching to see this scene and to see Canadians shown in the bad ass way that we've always carried ourselves. I'm very proud to be Canadain and serving this country was a true honor. Thank you to whoever made this movie.
Hey mate I’m an Aussie and we know the sacrifices your country men made! Canadians fought hard with unlimited bravery your valiant efforts in times of war will never be forgotten! Australians have always been proud to call Canadians our cousins! You blokes deserve the best as you have given…
Thank you, you took the words from me. I am myself a veteran (Roto 12 and ISAF). First as always thank you for your service. This scene for me illustrates the professionalism of Canada's volunteer army force. I was so proud to serve with such a diverse culture group and years of tradition. Some great times I had were at the legion, just sitting and hearing not only our side but the opposite (yes we had German soldier vets visit)
Yeah German vets were from Australia resettled here. The best story for me was from a u boat operator translated by an Aussie in an Aussie rsl. They both served there countries in world war 2 . The war was over so they became mates. Humans are always amazing even after such death fire and glory
As a Canadian myself I couldn't agree more with everything you said. As for your service to our country, thank you. From the bottom of my heart. Thank you. You're the reason why Canada can continue to be a free nation. God bless you and your entire family, may you all live happy and peaceful lives. If there was a saluting emoji I would put it here but there isn't any so take another thanks instead 😅❤
@@0doVo0 I would also like to say thank you for your service as well. Even though you may not be apart of my country, any soldier deserves respect in my book. Even if it's the enemy. Again, thank you for your service. If it wasn't for people like you and having to make sacrifices, we would be ruled over by communists and fascists. So from the deepest parts of my heart, I would like to say welcome home and thank you. God bless you, may you spend the rest of your days in peace and happiness. You deserve it. ❤
Same with every former British colony. If it wasn't for the ANZACs, Canadians, Rhodies and South Africans. The UK might have fell, or at least would be much weaker.
Mmm. A director once said, 'if you want a scene done right get a professional'. Many a war film of that time had those who'd served in WWII or had seen active service of some kind. So, yes, military research was tip top.
@Quintin Brunning That's exactly it! Highland bass drums are also constructed differently to achieve that softer deeper sound. It's good for the health of the drum and the mallets to swing like that as well.
@Quintin Brunning I've been a highland band bass drummer with my air cadet squadron in Canada for about five years now. While I wouldn't call myself a drum genius my personal opinion is that a softer thud with less resonance sounds better with pipes. And overall I agree that the highland band bass drum is a tad more musical. Our bass drum scores tend to be more complicated and creative. But each has their place.
My father served with The Toronto Scottish Regiment along with a younger brother. He enlisted in 1939 at the age of 21. His brother was 17. They were machine gunners. The massive machine guns had two operators who took turns firing and loading bullets. They fought at the front lines. My father was severely injured and had his right leg amputated below the knee. His younger brother a few months later was shot in the shoulder - the same day his machine gun partner was killed by a bullet to the head. My father and his 3 serving brothers and 4 brothers in law all returned. Such brave lads.
Damn bro, imagine your squad is getting mowed down by a machine gun nest and all of a sudden bagpipes start playing in the background and a bunch of Canadians start rushing up the line with nothing but shovels, dynamite, bayonets, and a couple of sidearms....Fucking OP....
@William McKenna the Canadian reusable grenade. the rock. tactical. effective. and scarier the drunker the man wielding it becomes. as such this are o ly issued to the most terrifying of soldiers. the newfie.
They've done it before numerus times both in WW1 and WW2 so I wouldn't be surprised that we've left a German or japanese guy with lasting nightmares of Scotland the brave
American here: thank Christ that the brave Canadians are our friends. Best of friends, worst of enemies. I honor and thank our neighbors and family to the north.
Just make sure that shithead Trump never gets near the White House again, and we'll keep having the longest undefended border in the world. He threatened, btw, unjokingly, that the US should invade Canada last year.
i got trained by a Scottish regiment here in canada for my support role in the army and of course they are known as the toughest regiment in my province. one of the greatest and most terrifying experiences of my life
my uncle who passed in 2009, was a member of the Devils Brigade (Canadian) - this movie takes a lot of liberties, but he did do a lot of training the Americans. He was finally awarded before his death for his service in the unit.
When you hear Scotland The Brave marching down the hill at you, every toughguy in the place takes notice and stands in awe and respect. I have Scottish ancestry on my father's side, Irish on my mother's, and English on both. I love those bagpipes, man.
Good to meet another Bourne, I’m English through and through, but as a young Sapper in the Royal Engineers I marched behind the pipes, always made you feel taller and you marched with a bit more style and swagger,
@@mickbourne3028 So true! Time spent in the Seaforth Highlanders and when we were on the march and the pipes would start up that blister on your heel, or heat rash on your back would just disappear. Never mind November 11, we were 10' tall!
I was in the Royal Canadian Army Cadets growing up in my teens back in 2010 to 2013 and would march to Scotland the Brave every Remembrance Day on Nov 11 downtown in my city. I have great memories of those bagpipes loud while marching for the fallen.. Made me want to cry for seeing the veterans watching us perform what they did going to war.
I'd like the imagine that in order to decide who would make the Brigade, half the Canadian army set out from somewhere in southern Ontario and marched all the way to Montana. Whomever made it (including pipers) was automatically allowed in.
I am french and I know what the Canadians have been told to do at Dieppe in order to test if it was possible to assault, take and keep an harbour on the french coast. Respects for the canadian armed forces!
Une théorie circule à l'effet que le but du raid de Dieppe était de couvrir une opération de commando visant à prendre possession d'une machine Enigma. Sans le raid, les Allemands auraient su que la machine était entre les mains des alliés et ils auraient changé les codes. Le raid rendait probable l'éventualité que la machine ait été détruite dans les combats. L'officier des renseignements navals britannique qui attendait au large, à bord d'un navire de la Royal Navy, pour prendre possession de la machine Enigma s'appelait Ian Fleming.
The Canadians were real bad asses! They were the most feared fighting force on the western front in the First World War and that reputation carried over into WW2
srsly for what? russland defeat the nazis. 95% of the german army was occupied in the east. usa, canada and uk lost less then 500k ppl each, where as russia lost 27 million! its a fucking shame that you celebrate such bullshit. stalin was begging roosevelt to open a second front for years, which he did not do. pls learn history!
I would like to say it would be Canadian humor, as the Canadians would have to always say that (being the royal anthem and this was in like what, 1940-41?) but it wouldn't be taken as seriously as in Britain naturally. Sadly today maybe only 30% care about Britain anymore, and our country is degrading to the point it's going to be either second world or just a purely degenerate filled mess of foreigners... We need some migration halts and more integration for fuck sakes, lets make Canadians Canadian again.
@@documentationslave397 Why does your country send over all of its wretched refuge to our teaming shores? I just read that there are actually more Canadian illegals here in USA than Mexican ones! And they fly on airplanes over here and then overstay their visas, not walk over wall-less borders like twitler sez. Explain that!
It's actual lyrics from our anthem too, the first verse it's God Save the Queen, the second verse ends with "God Save Us All!": O Lord our God arise, Scatter her enemies, And make them fall: Confound their politics, Frustrate their knavish tricks, On Thee our hopes we fix: God save us all!
Gotta love the Canadians 🇨🇦 nicest blokes around till you piss em off aha!! You guys were the push for a stand the world needed to see with recent events..you inspired us all from here in the far south of the world..in the west and all the way north where you started...bravo Canada, bravo!!. 😁🇳🇿
My father was in the Seaforth Highlanders of Canada in WW11. He volunteered for the Devils Brigade but was turned down because he had a partial dental plate. Lost the teeth playing hockey. However he returned home to Canada when so many didn't.
As a Canadian this increases my respect for the American actors. We used to have so much hate for the Canadian government when they wanted to cut the American entertainment into Canada and increase Canadian entertainment. Really? Next the the USA no way you can compare the 2. Ok we have Capt Kirk and Scotty and that little kid from Family Ties, whats his name Mike Fox or something like that.
@@BegoneJonah yes, yes. Sorry about that! We tried to take them back but they escape from their cage and we have never been able to put them back! I think someone gave them a case of Kokanee and tere was no turning them back
I was just a kid when I saw this movie over 50 years ago, but one of the things I remember, along with the Canadians' entrance, was that the big Canadian corporal with the mustache and red plume asked an American who the toughest American in the outfit was. He pointed out Claude Akins, the guy who first noticed that the Canadians were coming. The corporal, named Peacock, picked a fight with Akins' character, and soundly thrashed him. Peacock, it turned out, was the hand to hand combat instructor.
Hey, it wasn't Peacock who was the hand to hand combat instructor. It was the instructor, wearing glasses and all, who asked who the toughest American was. And then proceeded to use Akin's momentum against him demonstrating technique while making a mess in the mess. But Akins was forever trying to get Peacock to have a go during training, but Peacock was under direct orders not to engage any Americans in battle. After their fight in the bar against a group of lumberjack types, Akin's character and Peacock became best buds. Love this movie from the first time I saw it on TV back in 1970 or so.
One of the late parishioners in my church in Smiths Falls was an unarmed combat instructor in JTF2. It was pure hell just to shake his hand. The pastor had a word with him. We loved that guy.
As an American I may poke fun at my northern neighbors from time to time but in all seriousness you boys are a different breed when it comes to war. Almost like your country has a switch they flip when shit hits the fan and I will always respect that
@@jedediahcoulbourne1791 You cant argue with our results when it comes to war time. The shit us Canucks pulled off in WW1 and 2 and any other conflict we've bin in are down right ridiculous . Specially when you stop to think of our Size as a Military, massive country, small army of, "Fuck with us an Die"
Hark when the night is falling Hear! hear the pipes are calling, Loudly and proudly calling, Down through the glen. There where the hills are sleeping, Now feel the blood a-leaping, High as the spirits Of the old Highland men. Towering in gallant fame, Scotland my mountain hame, High may your proud standards, Gloriously wave, Land of my high endeavour, Land of the shining rivers, Land of my heart for ever, Scotland the brave. High in the misty Highlands, Out by the purple islands, Brave are the hearts that beat Beneath Scottish skies. Wild are the winds to meet you, Staunch are the friends that greet you, Kind as the love that shines From fair maidens' eyes. Far off in sunlit places, Sad are the Scottish faces, Yearning to feel the kiss Of sweet Scottish rain. Where tropic skies are beaming, Love sets the heart a-dreaming, Longing and dreaming for the homeland again.
As a Combat Aviator in Vietnam, I had a fellow pilot who had been a Canadian Sergeant Major. He felt he had to help the South Vietnamese and couldn't stay home, even though Canadians weren't involved . I also liked the fact William Holden was a Vet whose brother was shot down in WW II. He understood us Vets!
2024 - I remember watching this movie when I was about 12 years old and this particular scene has stayed with me ,never forgotten..thanks for uploading..
@@cleverusername9369 well, when one of your provinces is called “New Scotland” and has just as prolific a drinking tolerance, people tend to let it slide.
As a Hongkongese. Both Canadian soldiers and the Scotland the Brave tone are so familiar to me. Thanks for the sacrifice of the Canadian army during the Battle of Hong Kong and other assisting provided unitl nowadays. We owed you guys.
When I was a kid I lived on a very long road. The Salvation Army band would start at one end, play what I’ve learned would have been their hymns, & do the length of Carrington Ave. No traffic to worry about back in the 50s. I now live on a very long road in country Queensland, Australia. My imagination’s in overdrive imagining this group gracing us with their wonderful sound & precision marching. Imagination’s a truly wonderful gift.
My Grandfather served WWI CEF Winnipeg Rifles served WWII Princess Mary's Canadian Scottish. Grave marker has his regiment symbol. Sent his two sons into navy and airforce as he didn't want them to see trench warfare as he did at 16. Saved their lives as most of their Friends were shipped off to defend Hong Kong and never returned.
Canada's military doesnt get anywhere enough credit for how badass they are. Hands down one of the best national armies in existence today. Overall tho the US takes the lead by far.
Actually last I checked the Marine Corp sniper team beat the princess light infantry twice already. Depends on the competition. Canadians always seem to be top 3 though.
This is why the Germans feared the sound of bagpipes. They never knew if it was just the English/Scots/Irish, or if they were about to face the wrath of the Canadians
My family is of Scottish heritage here in The states. Our first ancestors arrived I. 1691. Scotland the brave was played at my grandfather and great uncles funerals. All 6 were proud ww2 veterans.
As a Revolutionary War and War of 1812 Reenactor, marching to a martial band. Whether it, drum, fife, trumpet, bagpipes, or heck, a whole marching band, i do feel such strong passion to parade with great flair and precision. And wearing the uniform of my ancestors, fills me with great pride. I can parade through the brutal heat and the blistering cold, and not even complain. Because marching to a military band reminds me of how much pride you feel. And how proud it makes your family when they see you out there, strutting your stuff with your comrades.
The Canadian people are a tough breed they have fought and died for freedom in many wars, and they still are,, biggest respects from Northern Ireland ☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️
there are close to 100,000 Canadian war graves in France alone, so for de Gaulle to come to Canada & say what he did was about the highest insult one could imagine.
Both my much older brothers served out of the 34th brigade group in Montreal Canada I have many fond memories of family days and events at the armory not a Scot but always loved the uniforms ,the music and seeing the red hackles kept in a brandy shifters at home to stay perfectly formed.
1:29 just that moustache alone commands respect. Edit: with how respected, feared and disciplined the Canadian army is, it seems these days the Canadian government could do with some words of advice on how to run a country.
This is because the Canadian Army, just like all other Commonwealth armies, are directly descended from the British Army and are therefore INSTANTLY a league above the rest
The Scots, along with the English and French were at the forefront of Canada’s early development. And their cultures passed into Canadian culture hence what we have here. There’s nothing strange about it. I think one of Canada’s former Prime Ministers once said that in historical terms we talk about “English” Canada and “French” Canada but that more appropriately, “English” Canada should really be “Scottish” Canada given the influence the Scots had on the country.
globaltraveller No mate, You’re even more likely to encounter a Norwegian than a Scotsman, in some parts of western Canada. The reason that area has so many types of people in it is because the Canadian immigration standards where lowered to help fill up the land
@Rob Thomas Where live, in Saskatchewan, our largest groups are German, English, Scotish, First Nations, and Ukrainians. Chinese only make up %1 of our population. We aren't representative of Canada, though, as our not many people move into our province permanently. Good day!
@Darth Kennedy I would say that is incorrect. The British, French, Spanish and Portuguese have had the greatest impact, colonially, and the Germans united under one flag at the very end of the 1800s. Canada's, and pretty much all former non-African colonies of Britain have adopted a British-style parliamentary democracy, as have many nations besides Britain. Even Germany has a very British-based Parliamentary Republic. The Spaniards almost entirely converted Mexico and Central America to speak Spanish and be Catholic, and Portugal did the same to South America. Even the Belgians have had more influence in Africa and other colonies than Germany. The only real things they have done that revolutionized the world were invent petrol automobiles and the printing press. They have done many other, smaller, things, but it was a Londoner who invented the lathe, quite possibly the most important invention since the wheel, and another Brit who created large railroad lines. I hope that cleared that up, and if you want to be immature and insult me, don't use childlike emojis. Good day sir.
I had the pleasure of watching this being filmed. We were at Camp Williams in Utah for a Boy Scout outing during the filming. This is one of those movies that will always have a place in my heart and my video collection.
You should be proud Canada you’ve united the world! Your national pride and spirit rings through Ottawa today as loud as these pipes and drums! I salute from Australia!
I think Rommel once said something along the lines of "give me american technology, British officers, and Canadian troops and I will conquer the earth."
Fantastic introduction. My job involves a lot of walking and I love to play this through my ear buds because those bagpipes set a good cadence and are fun to walk to.
I would be proud if I was Scottish and a Nation literally adopted my most important culture, but I am from Denmark, and we love bagpipes here, Kilts are also very beautiful and more manly than pants
Danish culture (less specifically Scandinavian) has been adopted by many nations, primarily due to an outsized influence by Viking traders, warriors, and settlers.
