    Great video. The ignorance of the people who get in the faces or under the feet of the troops with their phones and cameras always astounds me. I almost want to see them get trampled

      When I was in the U.S. Marine Corps I helped bury a fellow Marine killed in Vietnam. Brought his body back. During the procession to the grave site three anti war protestors got in front and in our faces. One got his foot trampled by the right leading Marine, and stumbled backwards into the grave. We stood with the coffin until family members and other Marines pulled his dumb ass out of the grave and escorted him and the other two out of the cemetery by their hair. Talk about getting underfoot.

    As a British soldier, I still regret the demise of the Scottish Regiments to their current titles. The Royal Regiment of Scotland will never have the same kudos as The Argyles, The Black Watch, The Queens Own to name a few of the splendid regiments in history who served with destinations. Not to belittle the professionalism of the Jocks on parade that day.

      @nokman Konya, this dwarf horse is called a Shetland pony. His ancestors came from the Shetland Islands to the north of Scotland. Lance Corporal Cruachan IV, the Shetland Pony Mascot, has been with the Regiment for 4 years. He is the 4th such pony in the Regiment. He is a most cherished and loved member of his group. The Shetland Pony is tiny, developed in an environment that had the weather of the Atlantic on one side and the North Sea on the other. Tiny they are, 9 hands to their withers. Over the years, they have worked underground in coal mines, ploughed the fields on land, and were used for many many children as riding companions. My black Shetland named Teddy lived for 33 years. He was very very cunning. 🐎🐎🐎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
