- It was an incredible 2 days in Houston and College Station. But I wasn’t prepared to hear The Aggie War Hymn written by my cousin J.V. Pinky Wilson as President George H.W. Bush’s casket was carried from the train. It was beautiful... and very moving. Pinky was my maternal grandmothers 1st cousin. Texas A&M Class of 1920.
As a Sooner, I’ve always had a ton of respect for Texas A&M. Watching this brought tears to my eyes. Such an amazing song, played so beautifully for such an amazing man. Well done to the Fighting Texas Aggie Band!
As a sooner I’m happy to hear any song shitting on UT😂
I took a good UT just this morning
Lol as an aggie I try to go to the red River shootout just to watch aggies loose, y’all have kinda become my second team out of hate for TU
@@mysteryboy2751 Respect
As a sooner fan you have always had a lot of sex with your own cousins. Eat a bag of socks you okie scum
I was a freshman at Texas A&M when this happened. It will always be ingrained in my memories.
When you’re an Aggie, it’s till death.
Then after death. You never stop being a Aggie.
He was my Commander In Chief when I was in the US Air Force. Rest In Peace Mr. President. Love The Aggie War Hymn.
very honorable... thanks for your service...
Thanks for your service god bless you
Tell me one bible verse
I love that he is laid to rest on campus his grave maker by a simple soldiers cross. What humble man
There have only been two occasions where hearing the Aggie War Hymn brought tears to my eyes. The first one was the Aggie Band tribute to the victims of the 1999 Aggie Bonfire collapse, and then this was the second. Rest in peace President Bush from the class of 2006.
9-11 ?
George will be honored from the ags for eternity
He was a ww2 pilot and flew a TBF called Barbra the III and escaped Japanese cannibals in his raft
Beautifully stated ! Great family
I am Texas Tech faculty member and while I love the Aggie War Hymn, this took it to another level. Thank you.
I’m a Vols fan I might have rocky top played at my funeral
Reminds me of when the Michigan Marching Band played The Victors for President Ford when he arrived in Grand Rapids to be laid to rest. Presidents never forget the colleges and teams they loved
I remember that... very moving!
If i die, i hope the oregon marching band plays mighty oregon
Thank you for adding this clip...when I first saw it on the news, I found this music incredibly moving and searched for the song...It was a fitting moment for the return of GHW Bush 's casket to his home.
it was moving indeed and very special to my family Thanks Tony
The song is The Aggie War Hymn! If you like this listen to Noble Men of Kyle and The Spirit of Aggieland! Gig'em 👍
I grew up on the Texas A&M campus, and might be a new member to the fighting Texas Aggie class of ‘24. (At least i hope). I have a ton of respect for A&M. Great job Fightin’ Texas Aggie Band!!
RainbowDiamond25 MC howdy man I’m going to be ‘24 as well
Tkcomte I’m just hoping to get into A&M...still haven’t gotten a decision .-.
RainbowDiamond25 MC I will have rocky top played at mine played by the pride of the south land marching band and have Tim Tebow speak at my funeral
Hopefully you got in. I’m class of ‘24
@@spotted_chicken_nugget sadly I didn’t but I still have massive respect for Texas A&M. I am an Aggie even tho I don’t go to school there, as I grew up an Aggie. I go to school out of the state of Texas (where I am originally from)
WAR EAGLE!! LOVE OUR Aggies!! So proud!! 😊
1:29 when bush jr looks away, that’s when you know that’s his poppa they’re carrying away. I was a junior when this happened. RIP, thanks and GIG EM👍
I remember standing outside the MSC on the day they of the ground breaking for George Herbert Walker Bush's Presidential Library! The entire Bush family was there! RIP Mr. President! Gig'em 👍
A fitting tribute to a great man.
Wow. Brought chills.
Indeed...♥️
Once an Aggie, always an Aggie till the day you die.
recognized this from the texas aggie band. amazing marching band i must say
HW carried to his final resting place with a song whose central message is “Texas sucks”. What a legendary choice.
So glad A&M and Texas are back in the same conference so this rivalry can flourish once again.
I was really hoping someone at the ceremony would saw 'em off.
I'm post military so are these people.
I thought this was so freaking cool when I saw it for the first time
I did too... it made me very emotional to hear the War Hymn played when the casket was removed from the train in College Station. Especially knowing my cousin wrote that War Hymn 100 years ago.
At my funeral I’m gonna play rocky top.
They played the Michigan Fight Song when Gerald Ford’s Casket from AF1 to the Hearse at GRF International Airport
Ho no. How sweet you guys add the university theme I'm his funeral. I'm going to cry
I didn't add it.. The Aggie Band was there to play The War Hymn as the President's casket was taken from the train. It was very moving....
@@MikeskaBrands wow. It's heart touching
Presidents are required to plan their funerals and update yearly after they leave office. This was President Bush’s plan. He lived A&M.
A&M is engraved into all of us americans at the end
He was doing horns down In Heaven change my mind
Im not a Republican but I had respect for him
I didn't support most of his policies. I never voted for him. But I respected him.
Gods spead Mr. President, Gig'em.
What a beautiful video
Gig ‘ em! 👍
First time seeing a president carried off a train since Lincoln
Rest in peace mr.president
❤️
R.I.P
"...the eyes of texas are upon you...."
SOUNDS LIKE HELL.
At my funeral I’m going to have rocky top played
Save that for JEB's funeral, he attended University of Texas Austin.
😭😭
Gig Em Ags!
