  • The Singapore Artillery celebrated the 125th Anniversary on the 22 Feb 2013. The Trooping of the Artillery Colours were one of the highlights of the event. The men on parade were made up of NSF(Conscript) and Regulars Gunners. These men made us proud. Their commitment, dedication and discipline made this parade a roaring success. The number 1 contingent that trooped the Artillery Colours had only 32 hours of training. These men will be completing their NSF obligation on 3 March 2013 and yet able to perform such feats. Like all NSFs, they are Sons of Singapore. They are the finest young men of Singapore who protected our country. They serve and protect what Singaporeans have and what Singaporeans are going to have in the future. It is a good day to be a Gunner. Unleash Hell.

    Their drill is highly similar to the British Armed Forces' drill to an extent. Bravo! 🇸🇬🇬🇧

    It is Standing Victorious. During the trooping in slow march. When the parade march off, the music is the Artillery March.

    I went through one at Khatib Camp. The physical training in School of Arty was very tough, I was at the height of my fitness at the end of the course

    I would say that the first Trooping of Colours done in an appropriate manner. The details of the parade is much more that what you see. We have to adjust according to the limited space. However, the Left Form executed in my own opinion was never been seen before in any SAF parade so far. We have done our 100th Anniversary Trooping of Colours as well and never quite achieved the Left Form in such a manner. Our soldiers made us proud. These are our Sons of Singapore. Gunners. Unleash Hell!

    The title of the march is "Standing Victorious". It was primarily used for most of the Trooping of Colours.

    Very impressive: it would be good to see the Guards regiments marking time etc 'with the thigh parallel to the ground and the lower leg hanging naturally vertical' instead doing the bum kick!
    That's quite a fast marching pace, too

    The music is quite unique to the Singapore Armed Forces. If I am correct, it is residing in the SAF Band of the SAF. I am afraid you will not be able to get it anywhere else.

    @emptyangel Před 11 lety +3

    Neat!
    Though the Left Form @ 02:35 could've been better. Some were marking time before they were in position, still amazing for 32 hours of practice.
    Also shame for the space constraint, otherwise I'm sure they would've been in ranks of two. Should have held it somewhere public, which I assume would be bigger.

    First trooping of colours!!! Encik.... I'm sure u had a lot to do with its success. There are a lot of details included in this parade that a lot of ppl who are not familiar with trooping would not have noticed. U must have had to liaise with the RSM of the British household division to get it right!!

    • @yeogimsiah3389

      Malay is our National Language and therefore all commands are in Malay.

    • @FerdinandLiem
      @FerdinandLiem Před 9 lety +7

      The majority of Singapore's population is ethnic Chinese. Singaporeans are well educated and speak English very well, and English is de facto the international language nowadays. But in spite of those facts, Malay is still Singapore's national language. Singapore also preserves its British heritage, although Britain was the colonial power over Singapore in the past. That's the very wise of Singapore. Let me say in Malay. Singapura sangat bijak.

      Thank you :) I might point out that discrimination against the Malay community is still quite common. From time to time, if you go search Military Parades related to either Malaysia or Singapore, you'll find this guy named, INDO-superb, he will do the discrimination, so watch out for him :)

      We are an English speaking country - everything (schools, work, business, conversation are all English). But we use Malay in ceremonies to recognise the special position of the indigenous people.

      (Indonesia use Dutch-Prussian style, Thailand use Prussian style, while Indochina countries using Prussian or Russian style drill).

      Artillery units can and do in fact carry colours. The Honourable Artillery Company in the British Army for instance has both a stand of Colours (Queen's and Regimental) and they also treat their Guns as their colours.

      That’s incorrect. All the support formations have colours at formation level. While frontline combat units may have some at battalion level.... and yet there are also classified units that do more and will never see colours presented. Lol.
