@funsascha this is Gaudeamus!! it is (and has been for hundreds of years) a song associated with education (that is why it is the regimental march of the Royal Army Education Corps). It is not a military tune at all (British or German.) In fact, we all had to sing this (in Latin) at our (Scottish) University graduation ceremony.

@wampl I take your point but you must try to understand the British Army.Every regiment and corps has a regimental march,a tune with a particular association to the unit.The march is used on ceromonial occasions and means many things to a soldier.Pride in his regiment,remembering the good times and also remembering the dead,so"Der gute Kamerad"is surely appropriate for a regimental march.

@funsascha this version is the regimental march of the Royal Army Education Corps.Lighten up mate,alot of British Army marches have a Germanic origin ,take it as a compliment.

Traditional Academic Anthem'' Gaudeamus Igiturby jolieinuk11,749 views
"Der gute Kamerad" (The good comrade) is a German mourning song for a comrade who died in action. It is a dignified song during which soldiers, policemen and comrades salute like if the national anthem is played. This " funny marching band version" of such a top-ranking piece of music is an impertinence.

@nicebut670 Perhaps funsascha's words were a bit harsh, but true; though the band plays very accurately, "Der gute Kamerad" is simply not supposed to be executed like this - besides, combining a song of mourning with one of rejoice like Gaudeamus igitur in a medley is something I frankly don't understand. Cheers!
