      A radioactive can of beans theres a difference between hating and criticizing injustice and unfairness where people see it. I agree sometimes people take it quite far but you need to remember they love their country as much as you love it. See the world for what it can be not as it is or something like that!

      AmazinglyGayPhil Jesus Christ, German culture is very much alive. It vanishing by Immigration is a myth. -_-
      There are plenty of old traditions no one gives a damn about anymore in Germany because people are simply not religious anymore... Or events got pushed aside by American equivalents, for example Halloween. Nothing ever got erased how many alt right minds want to believe. And, if anything, it's US culture being a threat to German culture, definitely not eastern immigrants.

      ​@@yomperone To the contrary. All band service ranks must pass 15 weeks basic military training. This is modelled on the first half of Commando training, with differences made due to the different nature of the RMBS job roles. The skills learned here are then refreshed each year, with intensive training serials before deployments. Many of the RMBS wear medals from Afghanistan, Iraq, Kosovo, Sierra Leone, Northern Ireland and beyond. Buglers go through training with the rest of the new recruits and have no special dispensation in regards to transferring.

    During WWII in Italy, a British major and an American lieutenant were occupying the same fox hole while the German artillery was severely pounding their position. The American, who later wrote about it, admitted that he personally was really shaken up. When the shelling ended, he looked at the British major, and the Brit looked calmly about, and commented "Well, Jerry's had his little bit of hate." You gotta admire those guys!

      Royal Marine Band are ok but will never be in the same class of the Scottish army pipers. The marine band have the luxury of having the music in front of them whilst pipers have to knock their pan off on in learning every note and grace note off by heart probably ten times the work. As a Piper myself I could walk into a band in no time knowing I had the music right in front of my eyes. Not only is the pipes a much more difficult lesson to master but learning tunes is another thing. Different league altogether
