Heather despite seeing Scottish Regiments in paintings from the Crimean War Defense of Balaclava and Wellingtons use of the Scots Greys at Waterloo. It is a fitting tribute. Those men who joined the Colours of the Scottish Regiments were still Scots. And Remember many of them joined the Army out of the need to feed their Families after the defeat at Cullonden and during the Clearances of the Highlands. Don't let any one disparge their Service and their Sacrifice. My opinion only

The Gaels Settled on the west coast of Scotland 1700 years back and became Scots. Only the picts had earlier claim to the land mass of whats now Scotland. Picts Gaels Scotti were unified in 844 under King Kenneth Macalpine. You must surley know this? ye cani say a man is no longer of a particular Race cos he becomes an economic migrant..Scots are Gaels nae mistake neebur

@SlipySama.. The days near and when it comes will be the day that all the souls who died, those for whom this video was dedicated, will be justified, Scotlands liberty. I think we are ready for 2014 and more importantly, The First Minister thinks we are ready. Saor Alba!!!

Thank you, from a proud Skiwi, grand daughter of a Scot in New Zealand. This was awsum and the sounds of those pipes and drums always rouses the spirits.

@duerksjv There are no sepratists in Scotland only Nationalists. Democracy is working. Scotland and The SNP are working with a mandate that is from a clear majority of Scotlands voters. Freedom is closer now than it has been since Bruce took to the field at Bannockburn. Alex Salmond is our new saviour in Scotland.. Saor Alba......

Albannach is great, and so is Iron Maiden. Great idea to put Eddie in there.

I'm curious about something; if there is one, can I be told the difference or distinction between the rebel identities of the Scottish and Irish? When concerning Ireland one of course seems to think more of relatively recent times concerning the IRA and whatnot, and it seems to still be something of a sore issue. But while Scotts certainly take pride in their historical struggles, there seems to be little active resentment towards England. Is there even a Scottish seperatist party or anything?

Unless from the Westcoast, the Scots are Gaelic by culture and language only, not blood.

the art is amazing... every detail down to a fallen hero, knocked down; his breath coming out like smoke over the cold battlefield...
