Gurkhas march back to barracks with the Irish drums and pipes (changing of the guard) 11.5.24

The Gurkas are a truly wonderful band of men.
We couldn't do without them.
Proud and fearless.
Long may they continue

Thanks for this. I love the tradition and pride all involved show in the service of The United Kingdom. Irish Guards, Scots Guards, Gurkhas, Welsh Guards, and Englishmen. You all show such pride and respect for your nation. You all make me proud to be an American with ancestral ties to such a Great Nation as The United Kingdom.

I am an American and never served with the Gurkha Rifles. However, I did work with Gurkhas in the contracting world. Holy shit, just some of the nicest, most generous folks you could ever hope to meet...and really good at their craft too. All the respect in the world to them and I hope the UK government treats these men as they deserve.

My father fought with the Gurkha's in Burma. Was in awe of their determination.

To show you how tough they really are. The British wanted to make a Gurkha parachute batallion with their ascent of course. The told the Gurkhas that they would drop them over a thousand feet up. The Gurkhas balked which was unbelievable. The British wanted their leaders to discuss this with them. They layed it out to the British. They said a thousand feet was too high but they would jump out at 200 feet. Why The British asked. The replay was because they could not survive a 1000 foot fall but maybe 200. It came to light they didnt understand what a parachute was and were going to jump out of the plane not wearing one.

Two of the most fearless regiments in the British army, the Gurkhas & the Irish guards. Not to forget the royal Irish regiment.

[sharonhyde]

Thankyou for showing your respect to them x❤

[derekstynes]

Fantastic to hear and see the Irish pipes and drums .

[robert-trading-as-Bob]

The saffron kilts remind me of the South African Irish playing at my late uncles funeral.
My uncle had played the bass drum for numerous Scottish pipe and drum bands in Johannesburg, but not for the SA Irish, yet he had known the band members and competed against them previously, and when he passed away, the SA Irish stepped in to honour him.
Yeah, a great wake was held at the SA Irish mess after.

Fantastic, thank you for your bravery and service.
