[znoop72]

[Jeeves1952]

Wow! They are wonderful. I wish we could get them to come to LA for the Rose Parade!

[Diavolino1988]

Its not close to "god-like", it IS godlike =D

[ComStealth]

HMKG has been beyond great at every military tattoo:)

[haz697]

I love the tune!

[jayrotsie]

Is it just me, or are they using M1 Garands for drill?

[HMKGman1]

@jayrotsie Thats true. This was the standard issue rifle in the norwegian armed forces after WW2. It was later replaced by the AG-3 (Modified G3) wich is now beeing replaced by the HK416.

[jayrotsie]

@HMKGman1 I thought I recognized them. Those things are beauties to drill with. My JROTC used them before the Army took them and gave us crappy plastic M1903's.

[HelmutVillam]

Great to hear them playing the fabulous second half of Gibraltar

[3rrort]

i saw that live..... incredible....

[BaildonLad]

Superb ! Greetings to our friends in Norway

[judiabbott1934]

We saw them in driving rain in 01--sound was deadened as you can imagine! Still awesome.

[andrewbrummer]

this is discipline in his perfection!

[jjjohns2569]

We saw these guys in 2005 at the Edinburgh Military Tattoo in August. They were THE BEST group... so impressive! I will always remember watching them. During OUR show, however, there was a dropped rifle! I know.. hard to believe but they made it seem a part of the show. VERY professional performers! LOVE THEM!

[Fletcher689908]

Arhh.. ett år igjen til jeg skal inn. Gleder meg!

[EAJ32]

[XmangooseE]

Liebe Norweger. Ihr habt eine tolle Armee. Bewundernswert...

[torek84]

Dette var tider det.... Spillte Euphonium her.

Dette går aldrig i glemmeboka.... ;)

[NorwegianChief]

Er du gardist? I såfall må jeg få lov til å takke deg!

[kirel245]

No! There are not many who can beat this

[NorwegianChief]

perhaps only the future hatch ;)

[RickyPan1986]

HMKG is the best :)

[kakedeig]

Er det noen her som var i drill i dette året?

Er det Veie vi ser 1.16?

[ostveit]

Er nok Veie det ja :)

[kakedeig]

Syns jeg kjente han igjen..

Fikk en del påpek fra han da jeg var i Garden.

[narvesen169]

Ja, hvem gjør ikke!? =P

[xcossackx]

Til alle dere som har gjort tjeneste i HMKG 3.kompani: Dere har gjort en fantastisk jobb for Norge! Det er fantastisk å se dere! Ikke rart dere er kjent worldwide!

[uufke]

If there was any chance of getting in this corps I would really like to take it!

It sux we havn't got a drillteam in the Netherlands...

The best march/show corps in the netherlands isn't even in the army...

I love your shows guys! respect!

[PSKEMan]

Another 5-star performance from our boys. And that they had the good taste to play Gibraltar certainly did not hurt!

Er det mulig å ikke føle stolthet når man ser HMKG? Enkelt svar: Nei.

[logitechg20]

do you know the name of the march they were singing at the end??

i love HMKG.

iam very proud of our german drillteams and musiccorps but i have to say that norwegian military is quite better than the german because they have their own tradition.

we germans cant do something like that, everybody would call us Nazi Germany again.

[thomasswatland]

We're singing "We're No' Awa' Tae Bide Awa'" :-)

[ssi1991]

well my dear german friend, i believe that you are totally right when you are saying that our dear norwegian friends are far better than our german drill teams.

and yes. we would be called nazis if we would do this.

and i believe for myself that our bundeswehr has not the right to exist, according to the actual right constitution of germany.

[ssi1991]

the bundeswehr has been only founded to stop soviet troops if the udssr would have ever attacked the free world until (i am now qoting an old friend of my family who studied the history of the bundeswehr very very well, also a former member of the bundswehr) a real army would appear to begin the real fight with the udssr (like the french, britsh or ofcourse!! the american army).

[ssi1991]

this friend of me also told me that the bundeswehr would be really nothing compared to other armies like the american or french or norwegian or british (okay...nearly every army -.-) which backs the fact that the bundeswehr wheter is a army nor is a militia...which is very irritating to me.

a sad but true fact. for my german side in me.

or just a simple fact for my korean side in me.

well...it is idly to start a fight about true facts....*sob*

5 stars for HMKG!!!!

[bob4116]

Yet another great performance by the HMKG! What really pleases me about this group is the wide range of music they perform from year to year.

The commentator mentions six "girls" in the band. Girls? I'm quite sure that he meant "women." The Edinburgh productions would be better without the commentator.

Thanks for posting this!

[HMKGman1]

Im glad you like it.

You have no Idea how long time it takes to prepare those little pieces of art.

It's worth it though.

[C2LG]

Awesome performance. HMKG kicks ass!

[EuphoniumVeb]

Sjukt bra!
