These are not Grenadier Guards, They are I think the Irish Guards. The grouping of the tunic buttons on the grenadier tunics are singly spaced. Those on the Guards troopng the colour here have their buttons grouped in fours.
Not to mention, that with all the constant defense cuts in the UK, i keep reading about, in a few years the UK will not even have an Air Force ,probably no Navy, and only a token army. A sad end to the armed forces of one of the worlds once mightiest Empires. The world would be a batter place if the British Empire had not fallen..
Long live the UK!...may its armed forces not be cut into oblivion...
@amx455 I'm also a supporter of the Anglo-American alliance had i not been British I would have wanted to be born American. While i agree that Britian has certainly declined i felt the need to clear up some points you made. The airforce is tiny....in comparisson to the US, We have by far the largest airforce in the EU, around 1000 aircraft. The US has around 6000+ but lets not forget it has the resources of an entire continent and the largest economy in the world to back that up.
@amx455 The Navy is currently only 1 of 3 'blue-water' navies, the others being the French and the USA. Currently there are no plans to scrap the 2 largest ships the royal navy has ever had, 2 queen Elizabeth class aircraft carriers and we are also deploying more high tech cruisers and destroyers. The British Army has never been big, we rely on professionalism rather than numbers and while it is true the gear was found lacking in the early 2000's equipment is improving dramatically.
@amx455 The British empire was a good thing, but i'm biased of course. Think if the Bostonians didn't complain about a bit of Tea it might still be around ;)
As i say, i like America, it could be a bit more European sometimes and less wacky but you're our best allies and deserve respect. Not like those pesky French.......
As an American, and great proponent of the Alliance between the US and the UK, i must say that while i firmly believe the UK is a great ally, that it is TRULY sad, to see the present state of the UKs Armed Forces--its airforce is tiny, the Royal Navy essentially a tugboat navy, with the possibility of even having its only planned carrier cut, and its army VERY grossly under powered.
the world was a safer place when both the UK and US had strong militaries
Our army was never massive, we rely on high technology and professionalism mainly. The Persians taught us that numbers is not everything, against the disciplined 300.
@beechey145 I thought the UK was still planing on having One Queen Elizabeth Class Carrier built---a REAL carrier..? Though it wouldnt surprise me if they canceled it. My point is a small military can anly do so much, before its overwehelmed. a nation like the UK needs IMO a larger military (not necssarily huge) to adaquately protect its interest. Anyways, im still a UK fan so . Rule Britannia!
UK is building 2 carriers, 65k tonnes, HMS Queen Elizabeth will act as a LPH, HMS Prince of Wales will be fitted with EMALS. HMS QE will then be retro-fitted.
Neither are to be cancelled or sold (despite newspaper reports) because anyone in the market for a 65k tonne carrier would home build.
@amx455 How much bigger does our military need to get? We've still got the biggest air force in Europe, the 5th largest Navy in the world and over 500,000 personnel in the Army. Plus it's not just about size. Advancement also comes into the equation. But, so long as friendly diplomatic relations are maintain, I'm sure we'll be fine.
@Hindenburg12886 Biggest air-force in Europe ?? If your talking about us ,i think we have only got 1 helicopter ,and Prince William has got that down in the Falklands !!
@1225MAGNA You obviously can't know too much about our Armed Forces then! Maybe you should know that the RAF has over 1,000 aircraft (inc. helicopters) and over 41,300 servicemen both at home, our overseas territories and allied countries. The second biggest in Europe is France, with a difference of around 370 aircraft. 3rd is Italy with around 480 and then Spain with around 450. When we're the 3rd biggest spender on our military in the world, we get value for money!
@Hindenburg12886 When i said our air force consist of just prince willy, flying a clapped out helicopter,I would like to think most people would understand, it was just a flippant and sarcastic remark !! I believe our armed forces are way undermanned, under supplied,and under equipped, in all departments ! 1,000 aircraft ?? to my knowledge with have around 43 active fighter jets.!!
Thank god the Germans are friendly at the moment !! p.s the last bit was Sarcasm !!
@1225MAGNA Well they do say that sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. As of the beginning of this year, we have about 135 Tornados and around 86 Typhoons, which can be used as fighters, bombers, recon and air defence. The Germans, carrying on with my air force rankings in Europe, are actually 5th, with around 420 aircraft inc. rotor winged aircraft. Considering we're an island, I'd say our military compares pretty well with the rest of Europe...

@captainmarshmellow13 wow that guys a dick, good on you for standing up against race hating dickheads like nazilivecamp69, these brave men on the video fight against everything he stands for.
horse pucky. at most there were 10,000 french troops in N. America and in support. If anything French helped win the defeat the British it was French Gold and the French Navy.
During the war of Independence, we Americans lost most of the battles but won the war. In VietNam we won most of the battles, but lost the war. History repeats itself.
@daveyRIR My POINT is...the Brits are a damned good Army. But..."best ...in the world"? Just saying there're other EQUALLY well disciplined, proud and traditional fighting forces out there. The SSF, The Gurkhas, Kiwi SAS, Oz SAS....etc...
Please ignore any of my idiot countrymen. If anything feel pity for the imbeciles. I am an American who has family and friends living in the UK, and I have the utmost respect for your nation. Your nation has stood shoulder to shoulder with us insufferable, (yet quite enjoyable sometimes,) yanks for the past century. May the special relationship last forever. The United States's best friend will always be the UK and members of the Commonwealth (Canada, Australia, New Zealand, etc.) Cheers,a Yank
@Anonignorantyank thankyou man, god your people are so sad coming onto all the british videos possible and trolling as much as possible, and most of them get reminded they all originate from brits and have never won a war without allies where as we have. glad to see you are not all uneducated half wits, seriously thankyou cos i was thinking all of you are twats where as i now think not all of you are.
@downhiller234 Those are just the idiots in my country who have no knowledge of anything outside their front door. Cheers for that comment I appreciate that. I made this youtube account solely to try to clean up the mess my countrymen have left on youtube and around the world, one video at a time. My comment praising France stayed on the main link to the French National anthem with several million views for 6 months. I'm just hoping I can prove that there are open minded yanks. Long live the UK!
Honestly I don't see why you're trying to apologize to these ignorant assholes. Do you not think the idea that Americans are all uneducated or apathetic is equally ignorant? There's nothing to apologize for, if people want to base their opinion of all Americans off of youtube comments, that's their problem.
simply awesome.......I was with some friends 2003 at trooping the colour.It was fantastic,sometime i wish we had something like this in Germany..My deepest respect for the Troops.
@Criticallacitirc i mean im fine mentally i mean like if our making such a big deal about it i dont know about you but ide get checked out if i was you anyway just in case you know what i mean ;P
@palus666 I love your use of the phrase "jog on" lmao. The term itself was first introduced to americans in the movie "hot fuzz" and ive been using it ever since!
@MyKingdom13 oh hell i dont see a problem with invading england we would be getting rid of the worlds cockiest nation lol i mean really "oh we have the commonwealth" um so what we are not in the colonizing age anymore we are now in the modern age of life and canada in your commonwealth? yea ide rather not have them in mine XD
@Nosteratees its not an estimate fact of the matter is you cnt keep your black population under control without burning you capital city stealing from your shops and murdering your people
@GuyPennebaker Hardly a comparison is it. 3 days of public order disturbance by a bunch of kids vs rampant unemployment, the worst murder rate in the world and having to live in a high-walled compound topped with razor wire in order to feel safe. And don't even get me started on fucking vuvuzelas.
@GuyPennebaker Wow what a comment coming from a person who lives in the worst country in the Wold for RIOTING BY BLACKS..You have the bloody nerve to come on here and criticise the UK when you live in a poverty stricken aids infested slum.
So if I was you and I am so glad i am not I would quietly piss off and go hang my head in shame over all the atrocities carried out by South Africans
@grooverheliboy well see the problem with that is i am not black so therefor i do not hang my head but i hold it up high more higher than certainly the tower of london im a boer and im proud of the heritage that we had killing british soldiers one by one
@GuyPennebaker Who said you are black..From all your past comments it is blatantly obvious you are a RACIST probably an old guy who is still living in the past What a pathetic example you are.
As for killing our soldiers in the PAST....TRY THAT NOW YOU WOULDN'T STAND A BLOODY CHANCE
@grooverheliboy to bad im not racist and too bad im not old dont judge when your talking to a total stranger young boy and the marine corps will annihilate you guys you stand no chance with them they beat your asses in 1775 and 1812 and im sure as hell they would do it today. im sure without prussia russia and austria back in 1809 napoleon would have trampled all over you guys
@MarkramUK just because you burnt down the white-house doesn't mean its a victory smart one and so what if they lost all hope for canada were not really losing anything they are people who call sliced ham bacon........WHOA XD well they have alaska 100 times more beautiful and gold and oil found :P and plus after you burnt down the whitehouse i honestly have to thank you for it wood was so outdated they rebuilt it 10 times more better out of.....a certain stone i think? anyway its much better thx
@grooverheliboy actually i take pride in south africas army and that "bumm" up to the USMC is better then you think some of the best trained people in the world
@GuyPennebaker And without France, SA, India, the Dutch & Spain you would never have gained your independence. Further more, you never won the 1812 war, it was a draw. In fact the ONLY reason it was a draw was because Britain considered France to be a larger threat, and ergo didn't want to waste time on the US. Further more Britain has lead the way for spec-ops and infantry tactics in general since around the mid-18th Century. USMC has nothing on that. Blue on blue is all the US can do.
I worked with british soldiers in Iraq and have the utmost respect for them. As far as the war of 1812, during the battle of New Orleans the british had a force of over 11,000 professional soldiers assaulting a force of merely 4,000 american soldiers and militia. During the battle the British suffered over 2500 casualties as opposed to 300 on the american side. So actually the professional British soldiers were soundly whipped in the field and were driven to full retreat. USA wins
@castlerock302 In the American War of Independence, a full 200,000 French soldiers in total were used in assisting the American revolt VS 150,000 British soldiers. Further more there are also accounts of incredible blunders by American soldiers during the self-same war, an example being Penobscot Expedition of1779, admitted by American Historians to be one of the greatest blunders in their military history. 'USA' didn't win anything in either war, FRANCE did the winning for them both times.
@Voltaire152 Agreed on that part, however would any one expect an Army that was entirely thrown together with little training to do well in frontal combat against well disciplined soldiers such as the British? It took the United States over 100 years to form a military that could stand a chance against most countries, and it took till WWII for the United States to Establish itself as a full world power that could take on head to head even the most powerful of nations.
@MoneMtwoAbrams Well for a start, remember that the army in the colonies at that time was MOSTLY inexperienced compared to the army of the Napoleonic era. TBH if Wellington and his army had been in the 13 colonies.... the US and French wouldn't have stood a chance. The greatest military in history... unknown. The Romans were good BUT they had a flawed combat system as was proven on numerous occasions. My vote: POSSIBLY the English armies of around 1300.
@Voltaire152 Wellington is one of my heroes, his leadership during Waterloo was brilliant, though I always have to Admire the Romans, sure they lost thier fair share, so has every military, I mean UK lost many battles but also won many wars, the US is the same, France and even Germany too.
@MoneMtwoAbrams The main problem with the Roman Army, a problem that i believe is why it isn't the 'best' army in history is it doesn't use all combat arms effectively. In any army (and modern armies have modern equivalents ofc) there is light infantry, heavy infantry, ranged, light cavalry and heavy cavalry. The roman legions used VERY little cavalry of any nature, relying primarily upon heavy infantry. This made them V vulnerable to cavalry-dominated armies in open battlefields.
@Voltaire152 Very true,but they did last even into the Byzantine Empire for a good thousand years, sure they have thier flaws, but what military doesn't? They controlled most of the known world for a long time, defeating Carthage, conquering Greeks, Other then Alexander The Great you don't get much better then that in conquerors.
@MoneMtwoAbrams The Roman army organization was completely different by the time of the East and Western Roman Empires. At the time of the beginning of the Empire soldiers provided their own equipment, seeing social classes making up the different qualities of troops. The AM reforms brought out the Roman Legionnaries we assosiate with them today. By the time of the Byzantine the armies are prodominately heavy cavalry with a small infantry support, mostly mercenaries as well.
@MoneMtwoAbrams in fact, by this point the 'Roman army' system was even weaker and more unbalanced than before! I am not saying that the Roman War machine wasn't impressive, their Legions were, at the time, THE worlds best fighting system and very few others could compare. HOWEVER, that was their perfection, within a century of that perfection their use of mercenaries and less legionnaries resulted in a very weak system which explains their losses to barbarians.
@Voltaire152 Well we all know, or atleast those who are into history such as ourselves, that the Roman military got weaker and weaker as times changed. But during that window, that maybe 300 year window, The Roman Legion was the most impressive armed force in history, thought you are very correct in how they came down. Very few accepted that times have changed and when The Empire was sacked and left to dwindle it left behind a legacy that has never been repeated since.
@MoneMtwoAbrams Well thats an inevitable future of ANY empire. My point however, was that the 'Roman Legion' was not the legion most people visualize it to be for the majority of the history of the Roman Empire. Considering the last century of more was comprised mostly of either hired mercenaries OR using cavalry dominated armies AND the initial armies were far less well regulated and/or badly co-ordinated. Basically the Roman Legions were overkill for their day.
But continuing from that last statement I think the greatest military in the history of war was the Roman Legions, though they proved to all of us nothing no matter how great can last forever
@Voltaire152 lol ya... the only thing that gave Great Britain a run for their money was the Guerilla warfare tactics learned by the indians which hit them in paths, roads and so on (used on convoys back in the day and still is but different style now IEDs). Indians did the whole nomad/Asian tribe attacks on 13 colonies. usa didnt have an army to go toe to toe with the whole LINE FORMATION tactics. And usa wasnt skilled either.
Even then guerilla warfare wasnt a vicotry for usa
@Voltaire152 alls usa did really was stall Great Britain out while France moved into play in chess, I have to look at the movements and time frame of how they did this and the talks. usa was just looked at as an advantage point for something against Great Britain lol.
Ya usa did their own thing in Vietnam... yeah looked how that worked out. Waste of materials for Hueys. Atleast sell them off. Now look at Iraq and all of the Middle East.
@Voltaire152 Ya that whole native amerikan indian thing. You can thank the "Book of mason" readers I mean... book of mormons. Joe Smith and his drama of politics. This was the sametime too. If you know about that whole "RELIGION" (no comment) you will see how this played out. Scumbags are trying to do something similiar to me in usa.
@Voltaire152 Dont ever say Guerilla warfare would of won for the usa. Because it didnt work in the Black Forest (but then those people werent armed enough or the knowledge) during WW2. You would of got hunted down in the forest in Germany. Dont know enough about the battles and conflicts in that area either in history. Battle of the Bulge hah... ya whatever. Germans out smarted the amerikans AGAIN!!! (they own usa) They didnt even do the whole ambush thing either. infiltration
@GuyPennebaker considering the numbers involved and the fact that we were also fighting the Dutch, Spanish, Portugeuse (spelt wrongly but meh) AND had a far smaller 'base' population to draw from.... I would have said it would be embaressing if the French HADN'T won. Though it is obvious that their land-based military was superior to all European Powers until the beginning of the 19th Century and the rise of the 'Wellington' armies.
@GuyPennebaker sorry that comment was referring to the period of conflict as a whole. For example between 1670-1730 or so England and the Dutch were in 3 major wars which resulted in the English replacing the Dutch as the dominant naval power in northern Europe. Portugal wouldn't become a REAL ally to Britain until the Napoleonic wars, and even then only so because they had little choice in the matter.
@Hindenburg12886 meh, i would say, actually in all fairness, that if it had been a straight France VS Britain fight, France would have won. France had the most valuable resource of all in warfare back then... manpower. Numbers WERE important, and France had the cash, tech, military society and NUMBERS to create vast and powerful armies which Britain could never match. Even from a naval perspective in the early years of the 18th Century France's riches were always a major threat.
@Voltaire152 But France's problem was, as it was with Germany during the '40s, that she was fighting on too many fronts for the French soldiers to handle, and eventually led to her downfall.
I understand what you are saying about britain it would have been defeated instantly in a single land campaign without the support of other countires around europe fighting the french and her allies. However in a situation were britain was alone they would have ran back to the uk and used its navy which was no match to the french, this was proven at trafalgar and diplomatic talks would end conflict but leave high tensions in my opinion.
@Dorz4356 The Americans won only one battle, Yorktown? And what of King's Mountain? Guilford Courthouse? Cowpens? French assisted in none of them, and collectively they ended Cornwallis' campaign in the southern colonies. Earlier, in 1777, much before significant support from France whatsoever, Washington's command escaped from New York. General Sir Henry Clinton presciently wrote If this campaign does not finish the war, I prophesy that there is an end of British dominion in America.
@4325air There was only one "British" soldier at Kings Mountain, the commander & he was killed. Not saying it was not a British defeat but details in history are always the most interesting part. BTW the 20 yrs before the French said "England will regret or leaving Canada" - they knew the colonies would break away when they were secure.
However I think the American War was the best war Britain ever lost or the French would probably have the mid west & the Spanish or RUSSIANS the west coast.
@4325air The Americans lost at Guilford Courthouse, they were routed from the field. But yes, the Americans did a hell of a lot for their own freedom, they just tend to forget that without the French, they would not have won it. I assume this is where the stereotype of Americans being "stupid" originates, as many do not learn their own history. Just like other nations, I'm sure, but it's more obvious with Americans for some reason.
@TheBudup Pretty much. Except France then intended to take over America for itself using the 'gratitude' the Americans would feel towards its nation to plant troops in the 13 colonies without resistance then taking over the 13 colonies. However, luckily for the US, the wars on the land and sea of Europe at this point took a turn for the worse in France and they never had the resources as a result to do this.
@TheBudup it actually was... and it DOES make sense if you think about it. France was originally forced out of the 13 colonies by England. This would have been their best shot at re-taking the colonies back without wasting TONS of resources. Unfortunately they underestimated British tenacity.
@Voltaire152 Don't forget Canada. Probably the French thought it would create an unstable border with which Britain has to spend resources on policing, rather then in Europe, Africa or India.
@Paranomasia12 true that.... and if i remember correctly, at the time Canada would have been considered a far more valuable resource due to the combination of luxuries such as furs AND timber that could be used for ship building that was sourced from Canada.
@GuyPennebaker Invade England?? Haha!! You can't even organise law and order in your own toilet of a country. If you can't even manage that, what hope have you got?
@MyKingdom13 i dont care whether they have our back or not and i know all about the American war of independence Dummkopf and like if you really have nothing better to do than be a keyboard warrior just dont bother me

@GuyPennebaker And without France, SA, India, the Dutch & Spain you would never have gained your independence. Further more, you never won the 1812 war, it was a draw. In fact the ONLY reason it was a draw was because Britain considered France to be a larger threat, and ergo didn't want to waste time on the US. Further more Britain has lead the way for spec-ops and infantry tactics in general since around the mid-18th Century. USMC has nothing on that. Blue on blue is all the US can do.

I worked with british soldiers in Iraq and have the utmost respect for them. As far as the war of 1812, during the battle of New Orleans the british had a force of over 11,000 professional soldiers assaulting a force of merely 4,000 american soldiers and militia. During the battle the British suffered over 2500 casualties as opposed to 300 on the american side. So actually the professional British soldiers were soundly whipped in the field and were driven to full retreat. USA wins

@castlerock302 In the American War of Independence, a full 200,000 French soldiers in total were used in assisting the American revolt VS 150,000 British soldiers. Further more there are also accounts of incredible blunders by American soldiers during the self-same war, an example being Penobscot Expedition of1779, admitted by American Historians to be one of the greatest blunders in their military history. 'USA' didn't win anything in either war, FRANCE did the winning for them both times.

@Voltaire152 Agreed on that part, however would any one expect an Army that was entirely thrown together with little training to do well in frontal combat against well disciplined soldiers such as the British? It took the United States over 100 years to form a military that could stand a chance against most countries, and it took till WWII for the United States to Establish itself as a full world power that could take on head to head even the most powerful of nations.

@MoneMtwoAbrams Well for a start, remember that the army in the colonies at that time was MOSTLY inexperienced compared to the army of the Napoleonic era. TBH if Wellington and his army had been in the 13 colonies.... the US and French wouldn't have stood a chance. The greatest military in history... unknown. The Romans were good BUT they had a flawed combat system as was proven on numerous occasions. My vote: POSSIBLY the English armies of around 1300.
Voltaire152 3 months ago
@Voltaire152 Wellington is one of my heroes, his leadership during Waterloo was brilliant, though I always have to Admire the Romans, sure they lost thier fair share, so has every military, I mean UK lost many battles but also won many wars, the US is the same, France and even Germany too.
MoneMtwoAbrams 3 months ago
@MoneMtwoAbrams The main problem with the Roman Army, a problem that i believe is why it isn't the 'best' army in history is it doesn't use all combat arms effectively. In any army (and modern armies have modern equivalents ofc) there is light infantry, heavy infantry, ranged, light cavalry and heavy cavalry. The roman legions used VERY little cavalry of any nature, relying primarily upon heavy infantry. This made them V vulnerable to cavalry-dominated armies in open battlefields.
Voltaire152 3 months ago
@Voltaire152 Indeed, and also Roman legions didn't like changing tactics; most generals were very traditional.

@Voltaire152 Very true,but they did last even into the Byzantine Empire for a good thousand years, sure they have thier flaws, but what military doesn't?

MoneMtwoAbrams 3 months ago
@MoneMtwoAbrams The Roman army organization was completely different by the time of the East and Western Roman Empires. At the time of the beginning of the Empire soldiers provided their own equipment, seeing social classes making up the different qualities of troops. The AM reforms brought out the Roman Legionnaries we assosiate with them today. By the time of the Byzantine the armies are prodominately heavy cavalry with a small infantry support, mostly mercenaries as well.
Voltaire152 3 months ago
@MoneMtwoAbrams in fact, by this point the 'Roman army' system was even weaker and more unbalanced than before! I am not saying that the Roman War machine wasn't impressive, their Legions were, at the time, THE worlds best fighting system and very few others could compare. HOWEVER, that was their perfection, within a century of that perfection their use of mercenaries and less legionnaries resulted in a very weak system which explains their losses to barbarians.
Voltaire152 3 months ago
@Voltaire152 Well we all know, or atleast those who are into history such as ourselves, that the Roman military got weaker and weaker as times changed. But during that window, that maybe 300 year window, The Roman Legion was the most impressive armed force in history, thought you are very correct in how they came down. Very few accepted that times have changed and when The Empire was sacked and left to dwindle it left behind a legacy that has never been repeated since.
MoneMtwoAbrams 3 months ago
@MoneMtwoAbrams Well thats an inevitable future of ANY empire. My point however, was that the 'Roman Legion' was not the legion most people visualize it to be for the majority of the history of the Roman Empire. Considering the last century of more was comprised mostly of either hired mercenaries OR using cavalry dominated armies AND the initial armies were far less well regulated and/or badly co-ordinated. Basically the Roman Legions were overkill for their day.
Voltaire152 3 months ago
But continuing from that last statement I think the greatest military in the history of war was the Roman Legions, though they proved to all of us nothing no matter how great can last forever

@GuyPennebaker sorry that comment was referring to the period of conflict as a whole. For example between 1670-1730 or so England and the Dutch were in 3 major wars which resulted in the English replacing the Dutch as the dominant naval power in northern Europe. Portugal wouldn't become a REAL ally to Britain until the Napoleonic wars, and even then only so because they had little choice in the matter.

@Hindenburg12886 meh, i would say, actually in all fairness, that if it had been a straight France VS Britain fight, France would have won. France had the most valuable resource of all in warfare back then... manpower. Numbers WERE important, and France had the cash, tech, military society and NUMBERS to create vast and powerful armies which Britain could never match. Even from a naval perspective in the early years of the 18th Century France's riches were always a major threat.
Voltaire152 2 months ago
@Voltaire152 But France's problem was, as it was with Germany during the '40s, that she was fighting on too many fronts for the French soldiers to handle, and eventually led to her downfall.

I understand what you are saying about britain it would have been defeated instantly in a single land campaign without the support of other countires around europe fighting the french and her allies.

General Sir Henry Clinton presciently wrote If this campaign does not finish the war, I prophesy that there is an end of British dominion in America.

@4325air There was only one "British" soldier at Kings Mountain, the commander & he was killed. Not saying it was not a British defeat but details in history are always the most interesting part. BTW the 20 yrs before the French said "England will regret or leaving Canada" - they knew the colonies would break away when they were secure.
However I think the American War was the best war Britain ever lost or the French would probably have the mid west & the Spanish or RUSSIANS the west coast.

@4325air The Americans lost at Guilford Courthouse, they were routed from the field. But yes, the Americans did a hell of a lot for their own freedom, they just tend to forget that without the French, they would not have won it.

Just like other nations, I'm sure, but it's more obvious with Americans for some reason.
