  • XXX Corps NOT XX Corps

  • Cannon fodder for the British Empire for 300 years, I suppose we are meant to be proud of that?

  • @BonnieBlueFlag1314 Its called the British Empire, not the English Empire for a reason. Don't try and play the victim, the Scots gained as much out of the Empire as the English did, Where did you think the money for all all those fine buildings in Edinburgh came from :)

  • @ander21scotland fuck of ya fenian bastard

  • @ander21scotland What do a bunch of bloody damn terrorists have to do with the 51st Highlanders celebrating victory in Germany in WW2?

  • add rather live poor than under a english crown

  • @ander21scotland Don't be stupid, you're poor now, when you leave you'll be pitiable.

  • ander21scotland is a racist neo-nazi dont listen to him. he is just a rude self obsessed bum.

  • ander21scotland is a neo nazi!!!!

    don't judge Scottish people on him! i know loads and they are all smart polite and a great laugh. may the unity continue and may we all prosper.

    dont judge scotland by this pathetic excuse for a man please!

  • Absolutely wonderful! Brilliant. We'll miss you when you're gone. What's Scotland given me recently - Tony Blair, Gordon Brown and Liam Fox (my MP). Cheers for that. Agreed - Cameron should have kept his mouth shut, but at least you now know how many English want you to go - must give you a nice warm feeling. But no English revenue for your Benefit scammers (enough of our own). But will Maj let you have the Scots Guards plus running costs or will you disband them to run your Health Service?

  • @Insperato62 i want Scotland to stay (to the humiliation of the SNP), but if they do break away i think the SNP expecting use to want to pay running costs for their defence and other utilities is rediculess i think they should have to pay for them selfs. we both know they cant afford what they have, even with the oil #ander21scotland needs to learn also that once oil is gone... they will probably be as powerful as..... Zimbabwe hahaha

  • 1:04 ... I get goose skin at the awesome drum playing

  • this is a reason Scotland should stay in the union :D. such powerful soldiers :D

  • THE REAL SCOTS ARE THE ONES WHO GAVE THERE LIFES FOR SCOTTISH FREEDOM

  • @ander21scotland For Wallace.Bruce and Liberty!

  • @ander21scotland freedom from what the nazis or?

  • Scarey as hell. A bunch of incoherent men in skirts squeezing clothe bags and making an unholy racket while beating on drums. No wonder the Germans surrendered. Up The Scots !!

  • @RDYS They had no choice! if you saw a hairy man in a skirt with an octopus under one arm, you'd surrender too! Scotland Forever!

  • @ hibeerules Pehaps the same can be said of those who refer to all Americans as Yanks...

  • AM NO BRITISH AM SCOTTISH NEVER HAVE BEEN BRITISH NEVER WILL BE FUCK THE ENGLISH BASTARDS

  • @ander21scotland ... Sad attitude (From a real Scot)

  • @qwerfdsvsdvs SO YOUR A REAL SCOT BUT U WILL SAY YER BRITISH

  • @ander21scotland shut it you cunt

  • @ander21scotland welsh, irish, england have all fought with the scottish, real scots understand the bond our countries share. also what will u do when independent u already mostly act independent but the rest of the uk pays for it. i for one would like the bond to stay as it is. but if it does break then i dont think the rest or the uk (wales, n,ireland and england) should pay the scots one penny and see them go down the drain as ur own government said they could afford what they have now.

  • @spencera11 scotland will give london a minimum of 225 billion over the next 15 years in oil and gas revenues alone..so what is it the rest of use bastards are paying for you cunt

  • @ander21scotland HAHAHAHAHAHAHA really u cunts paying for us fuck off....the snp already said if they became independent they would want the uk to pay for things like defence.....yh ur really good there. the uk make trillions of pounds a year 225 billion isnt a huge amount. i would give u the figures but that black out against sopa is happening today. look you obviously dont understand economics but the uk pays a fair but to the scots..be grateful the snp will fuck u all over. the racists

  • @spencera11 and they want the uk to pay because....they cant afford it.

    also if u continue to use sterling ur cash flow is controlled by.. Westminster! ur more free now becuase ur a part of the UK and help stear it....if ur apart from the uk, it will be more of a case of a foreign country will be controlling you. also hopefully we will also add a tax to enter uk borders. that will one kill off a lot of ur industry and 2 means we have another income. England its self is dealing with china

  • @ander21scotland well if u get inderpendance you give us all alot more in duty u stupid dick....and use a diffrent workd then "cunt", it makes u seem uneducated and stupid. the uks norminal GDP is $2.472 trillion so that like £3.9 trillion pounds with the current exchange rate. scotlands norminal GDP is £139.774 billion..so get youre facts right.

  • @spencera11 I wouldn't mind you doing my accounts . you seem like you know whats what old boy.

  • @ander21scotland You do know Scotland is part of the Great Britain, right?

  • @ander21scotland

    That really was not very nice.

  • @Quentin217 he is just one of these racist drunks prob, not all scots are like this. he is on the level of the BNP or neo nazis....prob some scummy never worked a day in his life but still thinks he is a good example for a human being. dont worry dickheads like this wont get anywhere, most scotish people have more then two brain cells to rub together were ander21scotland was probably dropped as a babby

  • @ander21scotland your right, fuck the peoiple who built your society, fuck the people you fought side by side with you for hundreds of years, fuck the englishthey have not done anything to gain your respect apart from benefiting scotland and fighting with you since the union.

    i want the union to end so cunts like you can see what it would be like with out england.

    sorry to the REAL scottish people.

  • @TheGunner1324 i dont want it to end but i want scots like u to know that ur national party wants inderpendance but wants England to pay for it...haha yh freedom sure. i think if the union is broken then we should say "no u can pay for ur own things....oh u cant afford to keep ur army or ur health service or other utilities? well why should we care ur independent u'll have to down grade!, should have thought about that". it will be a shallow "freedom" as we'll still control the cash flow!

  • Brian certainly worked for it, given the wounds he'd suffered andthen escaping from a POW camp.

  • SCOTSMEN: Being badass ever since like ... ever

  • We beat the huns in 1945, now they are running our economy and our Empire is lost. what the heck has gone wrong ?

  • One of the commonest misconceptions about the Jacobite rebellion is that it was a Scotland v England thing it was nothing of the kind there were actually more lowland Scots in the government side than in the Princes camp the cause of the Stuarts was supported by English,Irish and various others that is why the prince made the fateful error of crossing the border,Charles was not a scottish pretender he was a british pretender remember the union of the crowns was in 1603.

  • Well one thing is for sure that certainly told the local German populace the War is over!

  • The brits suggested that if none of the royal houses could be accepted, the throne would go to the house of Hannover, for which the Scots refused and the political disagreement ended with United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland as to integrate the colonies into the deal just to make it economically easier to keep the Scots calm giving them the market they needed to keep the people from starving to death. Something the british blockade was responsible for in the first place! History!

  • No such thing as a british Highlander! The Highlanders paid in blood on Culloden for the right of freedom from the brits something which lead to the act of Union in 1707 where the English suggested to the Caledonians they should create a british kingdom based on the Scottish and English/Welsh Royal families, however, due to that the Stewarts where catholic and the brits could not accept a catholic monarch so they eventually broke the union agreement leading to a war ending at Culloden in 1746.

  • @SirCharlesDavid "The Highlanders paid in blood on Culloden for.."

    That's not painting a clear picture. The Jesuits of Rome have orchestrated every major conflict of the last 300 years from the Jacobite Rebellions to the current Papal Crusade (instigated by Knight of Malta Tony Blair the Knights of Malta are a Papal Knighthood Order dating back to the Crusades). "WWI" and WWII" was in fact the Black Pope's Second Thirty Years War (1914-1945). The First Thirty Years War was 1618-1648.

  • An honour to watch. Glad this was preserved in film.

  • I seem to remember a show saying that the Germans referred to the Scots as the "Ladies from hell"

  • @ljharry75 rather a lady from hell than a man from england

  • @BIGmacwicheeze yeah because the English never did anything of note in WW1 did they? (facetious comment for the humourless)

  • @ljharry75

    The 51st Highland Division was part of-in fact one of the best parts of our army-that is the British Army-every soldier knew that, and was proud of it.They were not separate-they were and are a proud, integral part of it.Anybody who says otherwise doesn't know the army or its traditions.

  • @Dackah I take it you don't understand the meaning of facetious?

    

  • @ljharry75

    not only do I know the meaning of it it, I also know the meaning of sarcasm.

  • @skoblinI was Lieutenant-General Brian Horrocks not commader of the xxx.corps?

  • @cavman1980

    Yes he was indeed commander of XXX Corps , but the 51st Highland Division was part of XXX Corps-thus Lt-General Horrocks was the General Officer taking the salute.

  • The Germans were probably going: "We lost to a bunch of men in skirts and funny hats!?"

  • My God! Drunken Amazons!

  • FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEDOOOOOOOOOOOOM­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  • There's no Great England, theres no Great England, theres no Great Wales. Theres only one Great Britain. Long Live the union! From Wales.

  • YDdraigGoch22 - stuff yer Britain, the Scots cannon fodder decided the joke has gone too far, let the English do their own bloody fighting for a change

  • im glad america is allies with these people

  • Whae's like us?

  • young dumb full of cum im proud to be a canadaian

  • Is that Louis Mountbaton saluting ?Looks like him...

  • @Capcvid07

    It is Lt.Gen. Sir Brian Harrocks

  • @Capcvid07

    No Cap, it's Lieutenant-General Brian Horrocks, KCB KBE DSO MC

    -and what a leader of men he was

  • well my dad was english and he was there so they must be british

  • They are not British, they are Scottish

  • @mycoranger you moron

  • @mycoranger I think they would disagree with you actually Scotland did not win the war, England did not win the war, Wales did not win the war, Britain won the war with some help from America, thanks for that America. What makes us a great country is that we don't let are differences get in the way we embrace our similarities and our unity.

  • @mycoranger

    Sorry mycoranger-yes they are Scottish, but they are in the British army.They aren't mutually exclusive-quite the opposite.Whereas they had the some of the finest regiments, British Army is what they were.

  • Aye they were a' braw laddies. Hail Caledonia.

  • My Father was a Sergeant in The 1st Battalion, The BLACK WATCH, the first allied troops to cross the Rhein and enter The Reich. Can you imagine trying to live up to that!?

  • @billyconnearly your dad is a complete legend and the scots are the best

  • @billyconnearly my grandfather was Andrew Stewart.. also in the 1st Battalion, The Black Watch

  • @billyconnearly my grandfather was Andrew Stewart.. also in the 1st Battalion, The Black Watch I was trying to post a link for you to listen to.. but it won't post .

  • @moreheidi Thanks - I'll ask my Father if he recalls Andrew Stewart! Best regards!

  • @billyconnearly .. that would be great . he was a bren gun carrier and a piper .. sure wish I could post the link to a website that has recordings of him talking about it and singing "Down By St Valery". I'm guessing your dad would enjoy that.

  • My fear is that the usual ignorance of people will show it's face, anyone who refers to a british person as English is a prick who needs a better education, USA, mainly you

  • @hibeesrules british used to refer to the old welsh speakers that once ruled up to modern perthshire....north of that were the caledonian picts (nnon latinised)

  • @Apemanwithcalculator ? smells of bullshit.

  • @GibbyGoba Most ancient Britons were Welsh speaking....i would agree with Apemanwithcalculator. Look at many place names the lenngth and breadth of the Uk.

  • @hibeesrules i completley agree and im from england. i am proud to call myself british.us english.scots,welsh and northern irish should be proud of our own heritage but even prouder of what what we've accomplished together as a single nation. Rule brittania!

  • @Legitimatemuffins

    Agree mate. I'm Scottish but have English, Welsh & Irish ancestry. I call myself Scots AND British. My only gripe is, as hibees says, those people who call anything British - English. Americans being by far the worst at understanding the difference.

    My daughter's English and I've told her to be proud of where she comes from - except when Scotland play England at football - she once turned up at my house full of Scotland supporters wearing an England top!! :-)

  • @Legitimatemuffins english UK state is only from 1801....its not a culture....it was just a ruthless empire that used scotsmen as cannon fodder

  • @3tangle3 1701, was the creation of great britain, and the union of england and scotland. scottish troops were treated no different to english and welsh troops.

  • @Legitimatemuffins Actually it may be at least partly down to our own martial spirit but in the two world wars Scottish casualties were proportionately so way in excess of what they should have been that they certainly weren't used exactly the same as the troops from the rest of the UK. They were more likely to be in the front line.

  • @Legitimatemuffins It was 1707

  • @Legitimatemuffins And talk about Scotlandf wanting to leave the union.

  • @hibeesrules And your ignorance comes from your education!

  • @hibeesrules I agree that most people in the USA are ignorant of the cultural diversity in Great Britain. Personally I am a native Californian and I find it a headache myself to try and explain the difference between Welch, English, Cornish, Scottish, and Irish. There are many dipshits in the US but similar cultural ignorance is found throughout Europe.Can you tell the difference between a NorCal Bay Area Asshole and a SoCal Inconsiderate Duche?

  • That is the last sound one would want to hear if they were a German.

  • @balexwogel Don't know... According to my grandfather: "They don't know how to march - but very pretty music" :)  Prost

  • @balexwogel Usually was : P

  • @balexwogel

    well my great-grandfater, may he rest in peace, fought against those scottish man. and was very proud of it.

  • @WurstbrotOfSteel

    So he should of been,even more impressive to me is the fact he survived!.

  • @balexwogel no russian voices

  • @balexwogel haha that is true, love the video

  • @balexwogel

    Mate, if i was a German civilian and had been through what they had been through ... I would have been feeling great hearing the Jocks

  • British EXTREME RIGHTIST CONQUERORORS

  • @unfukkkmee

    Away and take yer face for a shite.

  • @ProtestantThomas SHUT UP BARBAROID

  • The Brits were badass back in the day!

  • @balexwogel ach we still are today lad. Get yer head oot a' yer arse

  • At one time 1-4 human beings on earth fell under British rule. It wasn't in the cards to last forever. I'm Afro-Caribbean born in England living in the states. England is a great country and will continue be. The empire is over it had it's place. My prayer is that the world moves on from economic or political imperialism. I love the bagpipes and the drill. Well done Scots.

  • there not british there SCOTISH HIGHLANDERS i think there black watch or argyle sutherland highlanders

  • @madscotsman65 Actually they are 51st highland division and they are british my dad was there a Gordon highlander his was from London.

  • @chef2224 thx for letting me know who they were and respect to your dad for the services he gave for the country

  • Comment removed

  • @madscotsman65 Who are you to say they are not british may of them would have considered themselves British. They fought for this country, I am very proud of that.

  • @MrCrumbsinthebutter ermmm yes there is. They come from the Mountainous areas of Scotland commonly known as the highlands.

  • Comment removed

  • no such thing as a "british highlander"!

  • my grandad was part of that division. he was captured by the germans early on, but escaped. he may have been in that parade. 51st highland division, a legendary scottish regiment. love the first song Atholl and Breadalbane Gathering

  • damn those tanks in all their greatness sure made some noise

  • XXX Corps, not XX

  • @artsloving: Will you come to Britain to give us our freedom back from the crazy muslim-scum?

  • @mullerheinrich will be delighted, now not only Great Britain has that problem, but also most of western europe !!! due to incompetent governments, that have been mercyfull in the name of our christian religion. Sad that the muslims just do not appreciate our hospitality.

  • @Vonwar01

    Notice during the riots...

    Asians = Worked together to prevent riots in their areas.

    Blacks = Rioted.

    Whites = Rioted.

    Really says something about civility doesn't it...

  • @otester As Asians normally take over complete areas this is not too surprising as few people are stupid enough to wreck their own streets. I worked in one such place that was 98% Asian and most the 2% non-Asians were very old.

    Says something about your knowledge of our rich diverse cultural society doesn't it.

  • @freebeerfordworkers

    I was referring to majorities in their respective areas.

  • Ist ja witzig :D

  • the highland laddie i think . alexander todd

  • Thank you very much for giving Germany its freedom back after the crazy nazi-scum! I like Scotland, just returned from a trip to Edinburgh!

  • This almost brings tears to my eyes. What has happened to this Britain?

  • @YDdraigGoch22 Immigration

  • @strathpipe I know. It was rhetorical.

  • @YDdraigGoch22

    mass immigration and cultural marxism

  • @VigisKane The opposite to nationalism?

  • @sniperquasi

    Nationalism has many manifestations, civil nationalism based on citizenship, ethno-nationalism based on race or blood and soil or just basic patriotism, none of these exsist in ther UK hence why it is in the state it is in now

  • @VigisKane I was asking whether 'cultural marxism' (which really doesn't make much sense as a term) is the opposite in your eyes, to nationalism.

  • @sniperquasi

    Ah but it, the theory of marxism, ie the basic principal everyone is equal, but applied to culture, ie cultures are all the same and we should all mix, this is fundementally flawed and wrong, would you rather live in a western country and western culture or in Iraq?

  • @YDdraigGoch22 england Happened :-( the useless -------s

  • @YDdraigGoch22 What has happend to it? well we beat the Germans thats what happend and as a result Britain looks the way it does because we beat the Germans. its a shame how history turned out.

  • @YDdraigGoch22 We destroyed our own country by ourselves at the ballot box by moronically voting in the same two parties since the post-war era. Vote UKIP.
