females want to serve then always want some attention. they should have sent her ass back in doors and made her stand night duty for to fucking days. Even tears of pride hold your damn bearing
crying on parade is usually caused my cold winds/dirt or grit/pollen of just sweat coming from your forehead. when I was a bugler i had tears running all down my face just from the pollen and sweat running down from my rifle cap
What kind of weird bastard films someone crying, doesn't matter if she's on parade (not gaurd duty you dick, the fact is you are a weird weird person whoever you are and you should take astep back and look at your life!
Have had this several times when on parade and unable to wipe my eyes. Nothing to do with emotions -- just wind or pollen. But you do feel a bit of a twat, I can assure you :-)
It's most likely has something to do with the equipment/gear that she is wearing, usually new uniform can be extremely uncomfortable to wear especially if it's the wrong size and after a whole day of being cut and bruised it will take it's toll.
I don't think it was crying at all. She doesn't even look sad. I think she likely has allergies and/or the wind was making her eyes water. Certainly nothing to talk or create a stir about.
the guy filming this hasent got a fucking clue for starters it aint Guards.
2 theres nothing worse than bein on parade for hours on end stiff legs wind blowing in ur face makes your eyes water the cramp in ur legs not being able to move try standing perfectly still at attention for 20 min and thats just the start of it and what so what if shese crying i bet theres somwere else shed like to be and maby she got something on her mind n standing there u think about everything //a sapper
@jukio02 Where are you from? America? I bet I'm right without even looking at your profile. How the hell do you know if thats true or not eh? I'm not even gonna bother humouring you with any more responses.

@jukio02 Britain was the only allied nation to fight in WW2 from start to finish. Had we 'got our asses kicked' there would be no lauching point for D-day.
I am sorry tayperk - I don't think that justifies filming it and putting it on youtube - do you think the young woman is pleased - someone has probably told her about it now? What were your motives in the first place for making and posting this film?
She is very beautiful and her tears are hardly noticeable - what kind of ignorant kid filmed her? She should not have been noticed in the first place let alone filmed.
@ImpeturbableLawrence I'm neither ignorant nor a child. There was no reason not to film this, there were literally thousands of people watching (it is the changing of the guard, there always are), it's not like this was a private event. The tears were quite noticible, and everyone around me was talking about it/speculating about what was going on, the video quality is just not high enough to see it from ~40 yards away.
@tayperk Had you researched this you would know that this was the 50th anniversary of the Army Air Corps. for the first time EVER a woman was part of the Royal Guard. I suspect that if she was crying then it would be tears of pride.
@acheface She's not actually in the Army Air Corps you plank. She's in the band which isn't actually part if the Army Air Corps, it's part of the Corps of Army Music. And women have mounted the guard before this.
@luke96241 Oh.. A child responds! She IS in ther Army Air Corps you fool. She was not part of the band. She wears the AAC beret, uniform and collardogs (look it up sprog) and if you are so sure of your facts... When did the other woman/women mount the guard and what regiments did they serve with? Now. Go play with the traffic you idiot!
@acheface Wearing the Army Air Corps Beret doesn't make you in the Army Air Corps. She is not wearing the number 1 dress blues as the soldiers in the background are. She is wearing full dress uniform which is only worn by bandsmen. She is clearly a bandsman because she is in the same rank as a bandsmen. She isn't mounting the guard anyway because she's in a band. There have been women serving in the regular army since 1994, so it's more than likely a woman has mounted the guard long before this.
@acheface I suggest you read about the Corps of Army Music! SHE IS NOT PART OF THE ARMY AIR CORPS. SHE IS IN THE CORPS OF ARMY MUSIC. She does not have anything to do with the AAC operationally, all musicians support the Army Medical Corps. Look it up and apologise.
@luke96241 Look, Luky wookey. If you read back a few comments, you will see I did make a comment referring to her being in the band, thus rectifying my earlier error as for apologising.. YOU are the halfwit who started with the insults so YOU can whistle for any apology. Now. Fuck off and bother someone who gives a shit. This is the last comment I am making on this.
@acheface All regular bands are part of the Corps of Army Music and not part of the regiments that who's uniform they wear. Go look that one up and get the actual facts before calling someone an idiot. You can see quite clearly that the man in the same rank as her is holding a clarinet.
@jimnopidy "Impeturbable" is a deliberate misspelling - the number of people who have pointed out that it is wrong has convinced me I should have adopted the correct spelling at the start but it is too late now. ‘Noticable' is a misspelling and ‘noticeable’ my (UK English) version is correct – see dictionary or Word spellchecker.
I completely diagree with "waterloo3". The women look splendid in uniform. Actually, I'm surprised at how many very good looking female bandsmen there are in the British Army! If their musicianship is up to par, then they belong there.
Should looks be considered when putting women into historical military bands with over 200 years history. Social experiments do not belong in a modern military. Still, the Army Air Corps band is a new creation from 1994 so women in it are not as bad as say the Guards or line regiments. Still, not a great idea as they spoil the unform look of a band which is all part of the history and tradition. Take that away and what do you have left?
I'd like to see you say this to soldier (try me, for example) because it's stupid. The Services have pioneered most social experiments in this country, and seeming as we are fighting for equality, it's only right that we show it, at least where possible. Tradition is a crap excuse for telling a woman she can't serve in a band she wants to, it's all well and good for you, presumably a man, who wouldn't be inconvenienced by it.
I can see maybe women being allowed in the This band, and perhaps the Royal Air Force bands which are newer organizations. But the Guards, Scottish regiments, famous line Divisional bands absolutely not!
Yes lol, you are very old fashioned. The only thing I care about with regards to women is that they are never put in combat units, because it just won't work, but there is no reason why not in a band.
Well, certainly not combat units for sure. But also historical bands that have a 200 year history. But the Army Air Corps Band is a 1994 creation and I suppose women are not so bad being in it. Still, I would prefer not. or just use women for concert venues, but not parades are ceremonies like Changing of the Guard.
The world's changing mate, catch up or be left behind, there are things about the new world I don't like too much, but I'll throw myself at them, it's inevtiable and unchangeable.
I agree with you but it does not mean that everything should just be turned upside down just for the sake of change. Some change is good, some not. Change just for the sake of change can just be a knee-jerk reaction resulting in a lot of unnesscessarily upheaval that often is seen later as silly. I think we need to keep these things in mind. Women in military bands may seem trivial on the surface, but it's part of this whole change is needed no matter what syndrome that we labor under now.
Having females play in a military band hardly is an earth shaking "social experiment. How does it spoil the uniform look of a band? I've watched several complete videos of various Trooping the Colours, and don't even notice that women are in the band!
Well, true from a distance you often can't tell in a band if there are women, but if you look more closely in the band line you will see the hips, and generally smaller stature of females. It tends to look really silly when you have a small 5'2 female with a huge Guards Bearskin on her head! They should at least have the taller ones for the Guards. Even in this band with the blue beret it looks odd seeing a female with a bun in the back of her hair! I guess i am old fashioned.
This looks like the band of the Army Air Corps doing the Changing of the Guard. The problem with women in the military bands now is that they take away from the martial look of the band. In the old days there was the WRAC band and that was composed completely of women under DoM Edna Foster and it was a very good, sharpe looking staff band. Putting women in male uniforms is never going to look right and its too bad governments seek social experiments in today's military.
What I am saying is that military bands represent a tradition in the army's they serve. Putting women in a band that has over 200 years history is a violation of that tradition. Pure and simple. Now in the case of the Army Air Corps band since that is a rather new creation from 1994 and it represents a Corps rather than a particular historical British army Regiment the concept of women being in it as not as egregious as say the Guards or other historic army bands. Just my take on it.
You all bash on about its because she is a woman. i have seen fit males faint infront of the Queen, i have also seen guards discretely removed from parade after they signalled to their officer that they were unwell.
tears were probably from embarrisment, these girls/guys dont want to be ill, but its better to have the officer in charge get her sorted out and either stood down or made well again. Ive seen boys with smelling salts to keep the guards upright.
fucking right. theres nothing wrong with having people ill on parade. And if its a woman who cares. Shes still gone farther than most people in the UK will be assed to. Shes gone and chosen a hard life in the military rather than some shit office job.
@captainnickface very well said! who knows maybe she was a bit emotional and there's nothing wrong with that,probably it was harder then heck to get to where she is.my respect to her and all the others.
Somehow I don't believe you. Your first CFT was most likely a leisurely 2 hrs to condition you. No first CFT is any quicker than 1 hr 50. Either your memory is failing, or you are trying to big time it.
Well I have some idea having served 12 years so far myself, and I just asked my friend of 19 years service, and he said the only time you would tab that fast is possibly on an Infantry JNCO cadre. Anyway, if you did it then fair play because I'd struggle in 1hr 20, and I'm still in.
Really don,t matter the circumstances, she was in some kind of stress however she stood her ground and carried on as normal, good effort on her part, thats what keeps the British forces so far ahead of the rest of the world when it comes to disipline.
i was there to but in the video you could not see but there were tears cominig out of her eyes and people were trying to help her+ she almost blew chunks
for a start this band is not a guards band! and she doesnt look like shes crying she probably just faint i know her and shes not pregnant and many other girls int he bands dont suffer from this so its nothing to do with being a female its her not drinking enough water before going out on parade!
Unless it's a really hot day out, I don't see why, not drinking enough water would make you look like that. I used to do color guard in a band, in high school, so I'm talking on my own personal band experience. She could be a bit sick from nerves, which, I don't blame her for!
i was actually here when this movie was taken and although it's not scene in this the lady was dry heaving and breathing so my family thinks she might of had morning sickness of something
Whatever the incident the actions taken to comfort her would not have been afforded to a male and consequently were inappropriate to good order and discipline.
Absolutely correct! If a soldier feints he can be charged with falling out without permission. And being being absent from a Queens parade if he didn't have breakfast!!
What's incorrect? That a female would be treated differently or that breakfast is a Queens Parade?. Or falling out without permission? The offence with which I've placed many a soldier on a 252
she was faint not crying and as a response to the person before me ive seen plenty of lads faint on parade too so whats your problem with the women in the armed forces??
i don't see her crying?

Now in the case of the Army Air Corps band since that is a rather new creation from 1994 and it represents a Corps rather than a particular historical British army Regiment the concept of women being in it as not as egregious as say the Guards or other historic army bands. Just my take on it.

You all bash on about its because she is a woman. i have seen fit males faint infront of the Queen, i have also seen guards discretely removed from parade after they signalled to their officer that they were unwell.
tears were probably from embarrisment, these girls/guys dont want to be ill, but its better to have the officer in charge get her sorted out and either stood down or made well again. Ive seen boys with smelling salts to keep the guards upright.
id trust a woman with my life

fucking right. theres nothing wrong with having people ill on parade. And if its a woman who cares. Shes still gone farther than most people in the UK will be assed to. Shes gone and chosen a hard life in the military rather than some shit office job.

sorry? why should i get over it? its a joke that a man needs to run 1.5 miles in 10:30 and a woman has to run it in less than 14mins.
iam in the army so i think it is you who needs to get a job

do you think the enemy are going to have any distinction when theyre shooting?
when the man or woman has to carry their own gear +fight?
the woman should be allowed to be less able?
+she might not survive

what dont people like about that statement?
why the negative feedback?
ive worked with plenty of good girls.
if they cant look after themselves, theyre putting themselves in danger.
easy to understand!

10:30 mins? having a bad day?
the softly softly training, isnt preparing people.
basic should be harder than war.
my first cft in trg was 1hr 20mins.
i didnt know what was going on when we did it in 2hrs at a unit
infernalzen 2 years ago
Somehow I don't believe you. Your first CFT was most likely a leisurely 2 hrs to condition you. No first CFT is any quicker than 1 hr 50. Either your memory is failing, or you are trying to big time it.

sorry you havent asked any of the old +bolds what the army used to be like.
bfts used to be in boots...
you only used to be able to were white plimsoles in the gym or outside...
the 1hr20min cft, was is the juniors too.
none of what you went through of, training to give numbers
+let the units sort out them once they get them.
infernalzen 2 years ago
Well I have some idea having served 12 years so far myself, and I just asked my friend of 19 years service, and he said the only time you would tab that fast is possibly on an Infantry JNCO cadre. Anyway, if you did it then fair play because I'd struggle in 1hr 20, and I'm still in.
redmatt77 2 years ago
it was the first cft i did, so didnt know any better :)
during basic training, so used to being beasted, running past the trucks....

Really don,t matter the circumstances, she was in some kind of stress however she stood her ground and carried on as normal, good effort on her part, thats what keeps the British forces so far ahead of the rest of the world when it comes to disipline.

for a start this band is not a guards band! and she doesnt look like shes crying she probably just faint i know her and shes not pregnant and many other girls int he bands dont suffer from this so its nothing to do with being a female its her not drinking enough water before going out on parade!
kittenkh 4 years ago
not palace guards ,their wearing army air corps berets and cap badges,must therefore be army air corp band!
samgreen47 4 years ago
Unless it's a really hot day out, I don't see why, not drinking enough water would make you look like that. I used to do color guard in a band, in high school, so I'm talking on my own personal band experience. She could be a bit sick from nerves, which, I don't blame her for!

i was actually here when this movie was taken and although it's not scene in this the lady was dry heaving and breathing so my family thinks she might of had morning sickness of something

Whatever the incident the actions taken to comfort her would not have been afforded to a male and consequently were inappropriate to good order and discipline.

Absolutely correct! If a soldier feints he can be charged with falling out without permission. And being being absent from a Queens parade if he didn't have breakfast!!

thats incorrect
muckie00 3 years ago
What's incorrect? That a female would be treated differently or that breakfast is a Queens Parade?. Or falling out without permission? The offence with which I've placed many a soldier on a 252
