From Helmand to Horse Guards - 1st Battalion Scots Guards Pipes & Drums

'From Helmand to Horse Guards' follows a year in the lives of the 1st Battalion Scots Guards, from their deployment in Helmand province, Afghanistan, to Trooping The Colour at Her Majesty The Queen's Birthday Parade at Horse Guards, London in June 2011.

Featuring renowned folk singers Kate Rusby and Isla St Clair, and the surprise singing talents of Sgt. John Norwood. A percentage of sales from the album is to be donated to the Scots Guards Colonel's Fund to assist bereaved families and injured Scots Guardsmen who were injured in action.

The song featured in this video is "We Will Remember Them" and features Isla St Clair singing 'Flowers of the Forest', followed by a bagpipe lament played by Pipe Major Brian Heriot.

If there is one thing in life that you can claim to be perfect. The day,no the moment you stepped off the square at Pirbright and joined your battalion - in my case 2SG. Anyone planning on joining remember this - it is a privilege to join a hard working hard playing regiment with a long proud history.

An excellent CD!

I've listened to the album from beginning to end many times and every time I feel like I want to give it another spin straight away!

Excellent booklet notes too (in 4 languages) - very "close up and personal"!

Well done! * * * * *
