  • Why is there a canada flag im not that impressed about it im canadian and i dont think it is respectful because at the time canada was british.

  • The flags (current flags of regions that participated in the siege of Yorktown) were donated to us by the Yorktown Women's Club who purchased them for another celebration. During this season we had more recruits than we had flags, so we used everything. You'll also see the German flag (another country that didn't exist yet) to reflect our relationship with the Royal Deaux-Ponts. It should be obvious that we hold all participating nations/regions in the highest regard...

  • you wouldn't happen to sell a CD or have these tunes on Itunes or amazon by chance? Also will you be doing any more recent filming of the Fifes and Drums of Yorktown in the near future?

  • @Thereisalwaysmore From 2000-2007 we produced a Corps video annually that featured some of our

    more interesting programs and venues. After I retired as Director in 2008, they discontinued that practice. The Corps did produce a CD with the US Air Force Heritage of America Band in 2006 entitled 'Heritage to Horizons'. You may be able to order a free copy from their web page.

  • @colemanbridge That sucks about no longer producing these videos on youtube. I believe It should be shared to everyone who cannot attend like me, so when you uploaded this vid. I got my first glimpse of the Fife and drum Corp. and I'm glad that I found you guys. It's too bad that the Corp doesn't continue what you started. I would and hope that sometime in the future I will be able to attend a live show of the Fifes and Drums of Yorktown. If I may ask where did you got those Uniforms?

  • @Thereisalwaysmore

    The jackets were custom made by a local tailor, but the hats and small clothes can be ordered from Druids Oak and James Townsend and Company respectively. The Corps will be performing on the Fourth of July in Yorktown this year, but I expect that they will not make a production video. You should also see the performance from Ft. Ticonderoga that is in my video collection. That is one of the more popular shows.

    They're all tricon hats... Its just that the thickness of the wool in the Senior Corps hats creates a smoother fold on the fore head.
