Hurrah for Her Maj. She's made him a Colonel. What a lovely bloke he is. Such kindness and humility - virtues we ALL need. Stay safe everyone - and Happy Birthday, Colonel Tom!
I suspect that he will appreciate that more than a knighthood. Colonel is a respected military award and related to the army, which he obviously appreciated. Any c list celebrity or sportsman can get a knighthood.
@AJ P the tin hat morons like you are the problem. everything's a conspiracy... some of us are rational, logical thinkers and that doesn't make us "sheep". Just because some of us dont buy into your conspiracy theories, how does that make us slaves to propaganda? .. one could argue the silly morons who believe anything anti-authority are the real sheep.... I am in no way a blind believer of the media, in fact I dislike the mainstream media for it's current destruction of free speech and trying to label everyone with a different opinion as "racist, fascist or bigot".. however it doesnt mean I believe every silly conspiracy circulating. what makes your sources more valid than anybody else?
Please add my best wishes to Captain Tom. He is a the calibre of man who puts the ‘GREAT’ in Great Britain. How I wish we had more like him. Happy Birthday Tom! Xx
It looks like it's a bunch of tin hats looking though some of the comments. Seems at least one person believes that the Nazis were the good guys, and WWII was all a big propaganda campaign. Some people are just messed up in the head. (No offense to anyone with a genuine mental illness, I'm talking about tin hats)
@zeddy mcdog Nah it was a different commenter they basically said if the other side won in ww2 we would no longer have wars. And the Ally's were the bad guys. (Unfortunately in war it's all shades of grey) I assume the person I was making reference to was ether a troll or must have used a lot of tin foil for there hat. Sorry if you thought I was making reference to yourself, I did look though the comments trying to find out why someone would dislike the video, as it's a feel-good piece.
I have asked this question many times on clips like this, some clips such as a deaf baby being given the gift of hearing for the first time and its amazing reaction. I can not imagine many(other than the odd nutcase) disliking these clips but apparently TH-cam has an automation system that does it to add a little balance, according to some of my responses anyway....
What an awesome tribute to a wonderful man who has given so much of himself for his country. Happy Birthday Colonel Tom with love and gratitude from the daughter of an US Air Force veteran!
From the Son of Parents who both served in the RAF during WW 2 Congratulations on your Century ( Not Out ) and to your Promotion. Thank you for your endeavors past and present.
Rene, we love you all too. If it wasn't for the egos of our leaders & politicians, all our nations would be awesome together. We absolutely do NOT hate the citizen's of Europe!
It's always a privilege to see and hear the Spitfire and Hurricane. They epitomise the courage, struggle and determination necessary to rise up when the chips are down and triumph against all odds. Colonel Tom Moore is a remarkable man, born of a remarkable generation, who can appreciate the magnificent spectacle, but also truly understand what these aircraft represent. " I've seen them fly in anger and today they fly in peace"....courage honour and humility. The perfect sentiment to 'all' concerned in this very fitting tribute. Happy 100th birthday sir !

Don't let pass this chance and make sure to respond quickly. Here’s what I do *acttoday48.com*
He’s been an inspiration to me in several areas of my reclusive and inactive life resulting from 30 surgeries and surviving cancer twice and possibly a third time, pending these last results and being hospitalized with all the symptoms for suspicion of the coronavirus, and 30 days later getting a negative report. He’s given me another look at life differently for the fifth time, I also survived a deadly tornado that destroyed my neighborhood but not me, but I’m so blessed and he’s my challenge now. God bless you and your family. Thank you for the hope and change
My mother and uncle worked on the Merlin engines at the Rolls Royce plant in Hillington (Glasgow), Scotland. Sadly the plant which was built in the late 1930s for war production is closed and now gone. Thank you Captain (Colonel) Tom and to all those who served and who continue to serve.
What a beautiful celebration of an outstanding man!! Very classy of the British media, the people, the prime minister and the royal family to salute him in this way. God bless you, Colonel Tom. Thank you for bringing warmth, kindness, and joy in a very dark time. Sending my love and gratitude from Canada.
♥ from India, Sir Tom, you are a living legend, for people who arent aware, he was initially posted to Bombay (now Mumbai) and subsequently to Calcutta (now Kolkata) India in the year 1941
Voll abgefahren ! All the best wishes to Captain Tom Moore from the Rhineland. You defended Britain agains the nazis in your youth, and now you defend Britain against this virus. Marvellous flypasts of the Royal Air Force.
Piotr, i come from a place called Whitchurch in north Shropshire in England. Near our town there is a place called Higher Heath. During the second world war there was a small aerodrome there and many polish pilots came and lived there doing immeasurable service for freedom. Many families from the polish community still live there. Without their bravery and skill along with the raf who knows what we would have faced. Thanks to the fortitude of your nation along with many others the good defeated the evil. Give thanks and prayers for your lost and survivors. Best wishes, Cuzz.

AJ P can’t one nice thing that is trying to be positive in this time of sadness be allowed? Oh I’m sorry we are supposed to just focus on the negatives in this current situation. 🙄
@AJ P then blame the fascist Tory gov and the neocon Zionists that control them. Don't blame the BBC. You're deflecting attention from the real issues.
AJ P terrible comment I can’t stand this government and do think they are using smoke and mirrors to deflect criticism. However to describe a man who risked his life in the war and despite being 99 ( at the time) showed such spirit to get up and raise money and make a difference “ senile” is shameful.
I love Colonel Tom Moore. He has a beautiful heart and is full of enormous energy and compassion. It is amazing, at 100 years old, he’s able to construct a coherent sentence and give an eloquent speech/message. While the current United States Democratic Party nominee rambles incoherently and is unable to articulate his most salient points, as he appears to always be oscillating between points and in a state of confusion.
Happy birthday to Captain Tom ! Thanks for posting this! My father was in the Cold Stream Gaurd during WWII. He was fascinated with the Spitfire and told us how it changed the war. Unfortunately I lost him in 2017 at the age of 90 . This story reminds me of his smile when he talked about these amazing aircraft.
What he’s done to repay the NHS is great. I would hope that any doctors in the NHS who prefer not to keep ill older people alive, (I am sorry to say I know some) reappraise this attitude.
Murali Dharan, that’s the justification they give but I think it’s a bit more callous than that. To our shame many of the WWII generation, ended up dying pretty undignified deaths on NHS wards before their time (if they had received proper treatment).
@@Blackbeard007 I've done no such thing! I see you are the typical English xenophobe. You criticise but have a BMW video on your channel! You're pathetic!
I much prefer to listen to the sound of these than I ever did jet noise. A lot of us that served on operational bases now have hearing problems, usually when someone mentions that it is our round next.
Sarah I think my generation and the ones younger than me have no idea as to the significance of these planes. Now crawl back into your hole you strange woman
Happy Birthday Colonel Tom. I think the Merlin is the best sounding Engine that has ever been made ! It sounds like VICTORY.... No retreat, No Surrender.
God Bless Col Tom. Good effort, but, would have thought they could have squeezed the Reds through smoke on red, white, and blue. For this remarkable, and amazing achievement. But, a good blast past by the BBMF, well done he deserves every bit of congratulations, and acknowledgement.
I remember when they used to fly past in anger. Now they fly past in peace.

While the current United States Democratic Party nominee rambles incoherently and is unable to articulate his most salient points, as he appears to always be oscillating between points and in a state of confusion.
Happy birthday to Captain Tom ! Thanks for posting this! My father was in the Cold Stream Gaurd during WWII. He was fascinated with the Spitfire and told us how it changed the war. Unfortunately I lost him in 2017 at the age of 90 . This story reminds me of his smile when he talked about these amazing aircraft.
Rip Colonel Moore ❤
What he’s done to repay the NHS is great. I would hope that any doctors in the NHS who prefer not to keep ill older people alive, (I am sorry to say I know some) reappraise this attitude.
Its because they have to choose between young and old.
Murali Dharan, that’s the justification they give but I think it’s a bit more callous than that. To our shame many of the WWII generation, ended up dying pretty undignified deaths on NHS wards before their time (if they had received proper treatment).

@@technonoises tsk tsk. Typecasting!
To think this was 9 months ago :( RIP Tom true inspiration to everyone young and old
I much prefer to listen to the sound of these than I ever did jet noise. A lot of us that served on operational bases now have hearing problems, usually when someone mentions that it is our round next.
Lol. Well done you..
I’m 25years old and the sound of those engines give me chills
Yep I can't imagine seeing them coming towards you in anger
What does your age have to do with anything? What a strange guy.
Sarah I think my generation and the ones younger than me have no idea as to the significance of these planes. Now crawl back into your hole you strange woman
Happy Birthday Colonel Tom. I think the Merlin is the best sounding Engine that has ever been made ! It sounds like VICTORY.... No retreat, No Surrender.
How can anyone not like this video?
God bless your cottons ......
I see a smile and worth from a generation I had consigned to an echo...but that echo still endures.....
Love you man!
God Bless Col Tom.
Good effort, but, would have thought they could have squeezed the Reds through smoke on red, white, and blue.
For this remarkable, and amazing achievement.
But, a good blast past by the BBMF, well done he deserves every bit of congratulations, and acknowledgement.
Happy 100th birthday colonel Tom moore 🎂🎂
