Tom Moore: Military Guard Of Honour As Army Veteran Completes 100-Lap Challenge | Forces TV

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ก.ย. 2024
- Army veteran Captain Tom Moore has completed 100 laps of his garden in Bedfordshire, having raised millions of pounds for NHS workers. After finishing a century of laps, completed with a guard of honour from the 1st Battalion of the Yorkshire Regiment, the 99-year-old said he felt "fine" and that he was glad to be “surrounded by the right sort of people". Mr Moore says he will continue walking for as long as people continue donating. (And yes, the total Tom has raised has increased since this piece was filmed!).

This guy is everything this country needs to be again.
faith in the spirit of UK 🇬🇧
@@EFChartley Until we break out of our little trance of happiness and go back to the normal politics. Then the "spirit" will go right back to slashing NHS staff pay.
@Chicken Stealer yeah we'd have been working in death camps
Chicken Stealer Arbeit macht frei meine Kamerad
@Chicken Stealer but millions would have been put to death, and there would be much less freedom. What is wrong with you
So much respect for this gentleman. What a true hero. Thank you for an amazing achievement .
His sense of duty, humbleness and good heart is so inspirational and moving. Learn Harry, learn!
Learn the whole younger generation I would say.
@@mscott3918 Yes, true.
God bless you ❤️🙏
God bless the UK 🇬🇧
A hero from another generation that was asked to risk their lives, 100 and still serving his country ! God bless you sir from another British soldier... 🇬🇧
@Saxon Wyvern the one man your talking about ? Hitler ?
On the 30th we all must wish him a Happy 100th Birthday. A glass raised to him, his comrades and all those serving today.
20million!!🥳🙌🏾👏🏾
Happy birth day Captain Moore!
What a gent 👏
What a man.
His indomitable spirit captures what we should all aim for and strive towards
This is so inspirational. Siri, play Beethoven's Yorckscher March
Amazing fellow, well done sir! Why the hell has this video got 12 thumbs down though?
The Best of British🇬🇧🇬🇧
An old soldier who is still giving service ,
@forcesTV: Could you find and fix the petition here?
millenials be like " your generation stole my future " , Army veteran Captain Tom Moore's generation be like " we GAVE you your future ( by our willingness to sacrifice ourselves for a better tomorrow ")
Doubt anyone is blaming a 100 year old WW2 vet for stealing their future.
Perhaps millenials might learn that Me First is not always right, no matter what they might think.
@@hiddenknowledge2012 - I'm quoting myself here - " Army veteran Captain Tom Moore's generation "
@Boscos_box This isn't America. Dont try and generalise and entire age group based on the antics of dumb yank SJW's.
Why is everyone hating on millennials, you realise it’s mainly Gen z that hate on the boomers and Captain Tom is definitely not a boomer. Millennials will be the main generation in the military at the moment so it’s not a good idea to paint them all with the same brush because gen Z say okay boomer all the time.
Putting the great in great Britain. Twice he's done his bit,
It's probably more than twice. People like him have done something to serve in many ways, without expecting publicity.
Give this brave Captian the George Medal!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aaaaar...You had to be there because you thought he was fibbin'!
This man deserves a knighthood
Well done Tom your a HERO and inspiration to many a big thank you
I hope they knight him he deserves it more than any of celebs just don't mention the last sir Thomas Moore :-))
ENGLAND
Absolutely fantastic effort and well done, much respect, but surely looking after our NHS is THE job of government not individual members of the public, our government has become a joke and this Covid-19 is a scaremongering debacle.
The video doesn't make it clear, but what he is doing isn't for The NHS. It's for NHS Charities which raises money to pay for extra amenities for NHS staff. It also pays for things like tablets to help patients in isolation stay in touch with their families.
I love it that he says “I am a member” of his Regiment. Not “was.”
Bill Brockman once in the reg, always in the reg
We may stop serving but we never stop belonging. I hope all units keep an association to stay in contact and provide support.
At the time of writing this comment, the total stands at over 18 million pounds, incredible.
Seen upto 20mill now🇬🇧 guy's a legend 🇬🇧
@@delboy6364 Ended at 32 million. GG
He is almost 100 and speaks so eloquently and so modest. He served in the army during World War II to make sure all of us had a better world to live in, and now in 2020 he is still prepared to 'do his duty' and give us a better world to live in. Thank you for your service you are a legend.
His generation are modest. They have always been brilliant and been modest about it, unlike so many so called celebrities who need applause for putting one foot in front of the other.
@troll oracle Very true. So many people seem to spend their time looking for things to be offended by, so are too busy and up themselves to actually do something that makes a difference. Captain Tom puts people like that to shame, and rightly so. He doesn't have time to be bothered by silly things, or get stressed by being called by the wrong prefix. If that happened I'm sure a nice cup of tea would sort everything out, not a year in therapy. A true hero.
Oh my goodness. I tear up every time I've seen this guy speak. He's such an inspiration!
Same here. It’s so humbling, imagining what he’s been through and now he’s doing this. A lesson and inspiration to us all. I hope he gets a personal message from the Queen. He would be made-up if she does, he has the utmost respect and admiration for her.
@@VoiceOfThe if possible he'd be rushed up for a knighthood! True hero and legend🇬🇧
Same here. I see Jesus in him. Such strength and humility wrapped up in one soul. His place in heaven is prepared. 🙏
He's managed to do in 10 days what a secession of government's have failed to do in 70 years!
Well done Tom.
In 1950, the NHS spent an estimated £460 million. For 2020 alone the Government was estimated to spend around £158.4 billion based on previous trends. God alone knows what it is costing us now. I greatly value the NHS and everyone who works/volunteers for it, but it is simply unsustainable and it annoys me when I see people constantly wanting more out of it.
Reaper One Try doing that when you’re almost a 100 year old. I bet an overweight obese person at his prime 20’s can’t manage 10 laps around that garden without giving up.
@Reaper One No we do from taxes !
@Reaper One wow what a negative comment! And where do you think the government gets the money to fund the NHS from then?..
What you fail to see is the enormity of Tom's personal achievement at almost 100 years old and still serving his country. But entitled to your opinion.
@@tonyk.9212
But, you have yet to explain what this gentleman has done that successive governments over the last 70 years have failed to do. As Reaper One simply asked, do you mean walk 100 laps or raise 15 million pounds for the NHS?
Absolutely incredible, what a shining and inspirational man. Thank you so much for your service
A TRUE HERO MANY TIMES OVER HE SHOULD BE KNIGHTED SIGN THE PETITION.
I totally agree!
sir tom moor should be knighted
Outstanding from Canada - truly an amazing Soldier. Cheers and stay safe.
Love Canada 🇬🇧
In America some of the biggest A list stars are offering private concerts, walk on movie roles and to co-host TV shows and so far raised about £7million.
We in Briton have an owd chap walking around his garden and raised over £22 million on his own and isn't offering any prize to anyone.
you have people who make me think how the hell they got out of bed safely and you get this legend still serving his county at 100 yrs old.
Such an inspiration to us all. I hope the Queen who he has the deepest and upmost respect for, personally congratulates him in a televised response.
I don't doubt The Queen will do something appropriate. This is her generation and she will be deeply impressed and grateful for what this great man has done.
Hannah must be sooo proud of her dad. 😊
ধন্যবাদ ...
salute Captain Tom Moore!!
love respect & thanks from Dhaka BANGLADESH
It's close to 20 million now
Love you Jesus 🇬🇧
@@EFChartley amen brother 🙏
God bless you sir and if I may say that I support the call for the knighthood.
You, me and about a million others I would say.
@@mscott3918 absolutely I wouldn't be surprised if Captain Tom was in this year's Queen's Birthday Honours List
@@shamirpatel3569 I wonder if something just for him might be announced. He has certainly done more than the usual bunch of second rate celebrities, football players and civil servants who get honours for just doing their job and being well paid for it.
@@mscott3918 who knows but what other than a knighthood
The pride of Britain and the British Army. Thankyou Sir❤️
I salute you Sir.
Faith in the country Dazza 🇬🇧
this man is the living embodiment of Britain. Absolute legend
Faith in the spirit of Britain! 🇬🇧
That’s not true. Britain embodiment wouldn’t be this gentleman, but a drunk obese teenager with half of its teeth missing.
Who the hell has disliked this video, what is wrong with them.
Probably the same people that blamed the older generation on the brexit vote ! They should be ashamed of themselves !!! This virus has no limits and we are in need of hero's... god bless him
probably idiots that steal " wear a poppy with pride " donation boxes
He's an inspiration to us, our country is proud of him. Hope he his knighted, iv'e signed it. Hope he recieves a pride of britain award too. 25 million and counting xx
Still fighting for us what a lad
His spirit still roars tall 🇬🇧
Fantastic story
Well done him
Well done all of the forces that have come together at this time to serve us
And well done and thank you NHS and all supporting staff
What a legend 👊🏼
Capt. Tom makes me proud to be British, respect and well wishes from Cornwall Mr. Moore 👍
What a world this would be if we had more people like him. I salute you Sir......from an ex Royal Australian Military Policeman.
You were already a hero before you completed this, now you are a superhero. Thank you for your determination and generosity. A true gentleman
As I have just recovered from a broken leg this is quite inspiring. My hat goes off to this old soldier
a hero
thank you for service sir
greetings from germany
Danke sehr aufsmerksam, from an English bloke. Keep safe, Herr Heinrich.👍😁
(Ps hope that was correct, I had to use Google translate.☺️)
@@robertwright7937 thank you
i come from paderborn and i know the
british troops. shame you go. we must stay together. stay safe
@ 20.00pm ON TOMS BIRTHDAY WE SHOULD ALL STAND OUT SIDE & SING HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO HIM... SPREAD THE WORD ON AS I HAVE
Thank you Captain Moore.
Really don't understand how anyone can dislike this.
Great man, a huge credit to his exceptional generation and the training and ability of our armed forces, the best in the world. The current generation with, all too often, the attitude of Me first, second and third, could try to learn about self sacrifice and caring about other people from Captain, hopefully soon to be Captain Sir Tom.
We love Captain Tom
Well done great BRITISH MAN . MUCH RESPECT TO YOU . YOUVE GONE THOUGH THE SECOND WORLD WAR AND NOW THIS WHAT A BRILLIAN MAN .
If everyone sends him a birthday card as he is 100 on Thursday 30th April, that would be great, they can be sent to c/o Post Office Ltd, Captain Tom Moore, 67 Bedford Road, Marston Moretaine, MK43 OLA, Bedfordshire
Diane, that's a great idea. I'd love to see the Post Office van turn up with sacks of mail for him.
Graham B I’m sure he will need extra staff to open up all the cards! 😂
At the time I’m writing this comment (9am on 18/04/2020) Captain Moore has raised £21,450,325! Sir you are an inspiration to us all!
you made me cry captain! ❤️
Absolutely brilliant. This also really shows well the connection between the different generations of the regiments and the people of this country. Congratulations man👍🏼
A real life superhero, just broke 20 mil. Tom Moore, you make me and many others proud to be British.
Written with tears after clapping ..God calls his own home to glory
Was he still using the rank of 'Captain' prior to Coronavirus, or did the media re-introduce it?
We were looking for a vaccine, but before we did we also found what we needed at this moment!
ABSOLUTELY MARVELOUS!
❤️❤️❤️❤️💂🏻♀️💂
Well done captain Tom....👍👍 it’s a disgrace that the website his daugter used to collect the donations ( Just giving ) are taking 2.5 million of the money for themselves for administration costs....! It’s absolutely disgraceful.....😡
I had a maths teacher who he reminds of,both had same medals,salute you sir!,respect for your generation.
Listen to his song with Michael Ball singing You’ll never walk alone, it’s on you tube with Decca Records! They are selling it for Charity NHS
True hero there..!! He Stood for this country once before in war & now standing for the country’s nhs at 100 years old... proper warrior & a gentleman with fantastic morals... 20million raised now & still going as well what an inspiration.. good work old boy 👍👏
Well done sir total respect for you
huge expectations of the united kingdom 🇬🇧
who ese is here after his death? 🙏🏻
1x100 year old who has put his life on the line for this country =12 million
100 footballing multimillionaires = 4 million
i KNOW who the real heroes are in this country !!!
after this crisis finished those "celebrities" will be in for a massive shock in the way their world collapses around them as we celebrate TRUE heroes
Celebrities expect to be praised for waking up in the morning. Over rated and over paid, unlike Captain Tom, who just gets on with it. I expect he will be happy with a nice cup of tea. Maybe a biscuit. His generation are modest and the true celebrities.
love from Bangladesh... Ancient British India 😍😍
Sir!
We should do a clap for Tom 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
His daughter must be so incredibly proud of him .
like from germany,tom moore super 100jears super super. wie like alle englisch arme,like royal air forse
From Ireland, an absolute gentle man and an inspiration to al
, keep it up sir
What a great and honourable man. A fantastic achievement.
Maybe an honorary promotion to major? Captain just doesn't sit well with Tom.
Pete Joseph David Bowie would love that!!
Honoury Colonel of his regiment would be great
@@raymondsawyer8626 I agree, it's just that I'm of an age more used to 'Major Tom' than 'Captain Tom'.
@@pzpete Guessing that's ground control to Major Tom.
An exceptional man.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
😍 my hero 😭
Also what an honour for those soldiers to part of that gaurd of honour, that will stay with them.
Absolutely, they'll have enjoyed that immensely
You are true human
Huge respect sir
God bless you stay safe stay blessed
He is ENGLAND
The fact that the NHS isn't a charity doesn't seem to bother anvbody!? Why are we raising money for the NHS? Shouldn't the government be doing that (with our taxes)? Don't get me wrong, what this vet did and what the nhs does is amazing but isn't it weird that we are raising and donating money for our National Health Service???
He isn't raising it for The NHS. It's for a number of charities that help support it. They provide extra comforts and amenities for the staff. It also does things like provide tablets for patients in isolation who can't see their families. I don't think that has been made very clear.
Like u say son we pay taxes. But in a time of crisis obviously there's more money equipment needed for the NHS care home heroes. When u watch something like this from a war hero at 99 nearly 100! You should be posting nothing but thanks and respect 🇬🇧 not negativity!
NHS Charities, NOT the NHS itself.
💖💖💖
Well done Sir... your an inspiration to people worldwide... We cant thank you enough...
What a fantastic inspiration to us all - God bless you, “young” sir. 😃❤️❤️❤️❤️
