Your Songs will be sung in high spirit by our Rhodesian reenactment group her in the Czech Republic this Feb! John Edmond, beer and Braai its how we will shake the weekend away! Bless you John!
Thank You John for waking Me and opening My eye’s , ear’s , mind and heart to the cause and history of Rhodesia. As a patriotic American I am saddened by My Country’s indifference to the Cause of Rhodesia. There is not enough space to tell how proud I am of all Who fought against communist subjugation and manipulation of Native peoples and those who strove so long and hard to bring truly meaningful and benevolent Governance and rights to everyone in Rhodesia and South Africa. If That Handsome guy in the Video is Your Son , You must Be proud of Him. You had Mentioned in another video how Your daughter influenced Your music and As a fan I am grateful for that and proud of Her as well. I am a Father and Grandfather Myself . One Son made a career in the Army as a Special Forces Doctor and all of them are musically and artistically inclined to greater or lesser degrees in different ways. One of My Daughters has a Belgian Malinois and is training it like a police dog to protect and identify scents. She is also a very good , successful canine and feline psychologist. I am another who holds rhodesian Vets and the Families that kept the home fires burning in high esteem.
@@JohnEdmondMusic And thank you for the lovely music that we keep playing all around the world. I just bought The Ultimate John Edmond Rhodesiana Collection through your web shop a few weeks back and got it sent to my home here in Denmark, and I listen to your songs every day with my children. Your music may have originated in a small country among an even smaller people who never got the recognition they so obviously deserved, yet here we are listening to and singing your songs all around the world as we keep the light of Rhodesia's shining example and her lessons of history alive and visible to all. Things will change as they always do, and your songs have the potential to become the soundtrack to a future even brighter than the past as we rebuild towards a new renaissance. As long as we keep whistling as we march and work, the hope will never die.
Thank you for your music, John! It make me all warm inside when listening to it. This tune in particular teaches a good life lesson that I will be sure to pass down to my son.
Wow, no kidding. He's the only celebrity I care about, probably because he represents something that has been sadly lost to history but will never truly die out: the Rhodesian spirit that many of us so admire. Apparently he owns a resort lodge in SA, Kunkuru I think it's called. I wonder if you could meet him there?
Thanks for Your kind reply John. Songs like The Whistling Troopie and You Ain’t No Hero, I believe should be taught and sung in schools around the world. Kids need good role models . They are heavily influenced and want to identify with the music , film and other entertainment they experience. We can raise good kids and protect them only so much. They will mingle with others especially in school who if not also raised properly can tempt them into corruption. You are to Rhodesia South Africa and perhaps soon the World what Steven Foster was to America in the times leading up to and including the American Civil War. I love all Your Song’s and Music . As a Hunter and Gun enthusiast who likes collecting and shooting old Military Arms , muzzle loader’s etc. all that History and Your tracking video are of great interest and enjoyment. Again all Your creations are excellent ,Rhodesian School Day’s and Rhoadie Cologne can get anyone to reminiscing about old times and friends.
White people built such an amazing civilization ❤ with a stable currency, a thriving economy, airports schools, hospitals, Universities railroads, lots of paved streets, running water, electricity, air conditioning, fully stocked, grocery store, shelves plenty of petrol at all the stations, no trash on the streets no graffiti on the building and then suddenly everything collapsed. I wonder what happened
Только теперь от этой цивилизации почти ничего не осталось, потому что белые люди пропустили момент и не защитили свою цивилизацию от уничтожения "новым мировым порядком" (new world order). И придётся нам всё начинать заново...
Well he should be wearing hese webbing in the bush and not carrying hese bal sak lol, but i spose hese bal sak is appropriate since its what he finaly goes home with and matches what hese whisteling about right ?, in my military yrs i spent alot of time alone in the South African bush and became a pro whister myself with the birds and nature as my audiance, and they loved it 🤣👍
You know how they say, everything has a beginning and an end, but as long as you remember, it never dies. Rhodesia would have set a dangerous precedent by showing, especially to other countries in Africa, what a well managed african country could become. In my opinion that's why, during the cold war, it was battled against by both west (on the political level) and east (on the military one). And what's worse, is that the whole thing has been marketed as an emancipation war. Which is fun if you think about it, because today, in 2021, we're seeing a lot of stuff being phased out or heavily rearranged in the name of equality.
@@2ndcomingofFritz you shell not be held accountable for the sins of your forefathers. The blame is on the labour government of the UK they stabbed us in the front and the Conservatives stabbed us in the back. Politics

Pieter Willem Botha, Botha my friend, it is his son, called grant, holding Edmonds service FN. long live the rhodies!
@@bobstersterbob9391 Rhodesians never die
@@bobstersterbob9391 that’s pretty cool dude
@@bobstersterbob9391 That's awesome.
Will never forget Rhodesia
I'll never get bored of John's songs. Truly an amazing artist. Love from Hong Kong, a former colony of Britannia!
Another colony they tossed to the communist wolves
He is truly a great singer of our day, glad he's still kicking
@@nolmanimates3031I’m so glad he’s still healthy and going at his old age
Such memories of our men back in the day when SA was such a proud beautiful country .
I love this song, Whistling it every day, keep it up!

How special! thanks for your lovely response to my music!
I'm pretty sure one of the major reasons why the U.S. never got involved with Rhodesia was the Vietnam war
We had US ex.Spec Forces with us , and they made a big impression...salut

This is the only thing that occupies my mind when I ruck march
It'll be in my mind too
Absolutely Kino
John Edmond a personal friend of mine❤
One of my favorites, may I ask who runs this TH-cam account? Whoever you are you are doing an excellent job of preserving this footage. Keep it up!
Its John Edmond himself

John Edmond himself runs the channel, he's still making music to this day.
I love this song.
God bless Rhodesia

Yes Thanks Tristen, John Edmond is keeping the Flame alive for a Nation now scattered far and wide.
