I am desperately trying to find a copy of the Beating/Sounding Retreat 1997 on either DVD or VHS for my dad who is ex-Green Jacket.
I have the music CD of this already, but apparently there is a DVD/video as well. I have heard it referred to as both Beating and Sounding Retreat, so I am not exactly sure which one is correct, but its apparently the last year in which the Royal Green Jackets participated.
If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it.
The BBC broadcast the event and i have a copy on DVD which i copied from the TV i also have my film that i did on the 2nd of the three days that the retreat took place . I am not in the UK at the moment but there are copies on U tube that you can down load hope this helps
The Royal Green Jackets and now The RIFLES will ALWAYS 'sound' Retreat - it is a Light Infantry tradition because they use Bugles, march at 140 paces to the minute and are the BEST Soldiers in the World! Had to say that did I not! Swift & Bold
