Lili Marlene - Slow March of the Special Air Service (SAS)
The Special Air Service (SAS) is a special forces unit of the British Army. It was founded as a regiment in 1941 by David Stirling, and in 1950 it was reconstituted as a corps. The unit specialises in a number of roles including counter-terrorism, hostage rescue, direct action and special reconnaissance. Much of the information about the SAS is highly classified, and the unit is not commented on by either the British government or the Ministry of Defence due to the secrecy and sensitivity of its operations.

Переглядів 64116 годин тому
It has often been said that "Haul on the Bowline" dates at least from the time of Henry VIII. There is no direct evidence to back up the statement. Yet the shanty may be older than most, for it is a very long time since the bowline was an important rope that required much hauling on. Many a sailor, when he had time to draw breath and think it over, has wondered why this insignificant bowline sh...

Isn't the tune from Marching through Georgia? Btw I've never heard this song before. I love your collection ❤
It is indeed and thanks mate!
Its always funny seeing regiments using newer music for their marches, like this one and the 2e REP using 'Non, je ne regrette rien', as opposed to pipes and drums and such. Though that is where their traditions are.
Great find, this is

British adoption of a German march? Grüß sie!
Hello there!
In America, one singer sings with a mic for our national anthem, and you barley hear anyone else sing it. In the UK, everyone is the person.
We had to preform this for our performance task in Grade 9. Amazing baroque period song!
Fighting for those who'd never fight themselves just others idiolgies

One of my old favorites from the soundtrack. Love it! First saw the movie on Wonderful World of Disney or VHS when I was a kid. Great movie too! Hope my nephews and niece are aware of it!!
I like to think of the Second Boer War as our final thank you to Queen Victoria for everything she did for the empire. Just a shame she wasn't here when we won it, but her son Edward was.
I sang this at school in Girvan Ayrshire in the 60s.
Amazing.
Good video mate :)
