Sarie Marais was adopted by Royal Marines Commando out of respect of those very brave Boer commandos who gave such a good account of themselves during the Boer War. The tune originated from the American Civil War. x-45 Cdo.R.M.
My great-grandfather, who was field coronet and later commandant of the Heidelberg commando, always expressed admiration towards Britain for being magnanimous in victory. Your tip of the hat towards him and his contemporaries warms my heart!
This tune was adopted from South Africa at the turn of the century during the boer wars. Also the war that claimed the most Marine lives in the history of the R Maines.
Nice but too bl**dy short!! There is something about a big military band that makes the hair stand up on the back of one's neck and combine that with Sarie Marais and it makes one miss the fairest Cape
