In Gaelic, this rousing is called the ‘bronsnachadh.’

The existence of pipes with a Scottish regiment dates to at least the 1680s. At the Battle of Waterloo the pipers played inside the squares as the French advanced, while on the march they played to cheer the soldiers up. All this changed with the arrival of the metalled road, which was to lead to the emergence of the bagpipe and drum combination, and to an avalanche of compositions in march tempo.

From the time of Waterloo, continuous efforts had been made to have the pipers recognised as an integral part of the musical resources of the Scottish regiments. The highland regiments owed the approval of their pipers to the indirect influence of Queen Victoria and it was she who decreed that “the pipers shall play in front” of the regiments. The Queen decided she must have her own piper and in 1843 Angus MacKay was appointed as the Stuart Letford, first Sovereign’s Piper, a tradition that has been Manager, the College of Piping, maintained by the monarch ever since.

100 YEARS OF REMEMBRANCE 13 Message from the First Sea Lord Admiral Sir Philip Jones kcb adc Chief of Naval Staff

Images of trenches and barbed wire are an indelible part of our collective national memory, but the First World War also reached far beyond the Western Front. At sea, it stretched from the Battle of Jutland in the North Sea to the twin battles of Coronel and the Falklands in the South East Pacific and the South Atlantic Oceans, while to the east it spilled onto the beaches and clifftops of the Gallipoli Peninsula in Turkey. The lighting of Beacons will be an opportunity for families and communities around the country and Admiral Sir Philip Jones KCB ADC overseas to remember their individual connections to these global First Sea Lord and Chief of Naval Staff events, and the many personal examples of courage and sacrifice.

As these Centenary commemorations draw to a close, the memory of those who fought in the First World War must never be extinguished. We must continue to learn the hard won lessons of this terrible war, because today, as was the case a century ago, our own national wellbeing is indivisible from the cause of peace and security in the wider world.

This Tribute will be supported across the length of the UK and the breadth of her overseas territories.

All of these communities made significant sacrifices in the seas, fields and skies during World War I, and this act provides the perfect opportunity to commemorate those hardships. And yet, the return of these beacons of light to the darkness reminds us of the hope which carried the Nation and her citizens through. That message of hope and inspiration is particularly apt in the centenary year of the birth of the RAF as the world’s first independent air force, and I welcome the opportunity to reflect on both the grave losses and the incredible achievements which occurred during those dark years.

‘Battle’s Over’ offers a wonderful opportunity to both record and remember what was endured and forgiven but not forgotten. JohnCapt J M R SailSail MNM MNI During the First World War attacks on merchant ships MNA National Chairman began slowly as the enemy sought to blockade Great Britain. In 1914 and 1915 a total of 342 ships and nearly 2,500 men, women and boys lost their lives with more being injured. During 1916 alone 396 ships and 1,217 seafarers lost their lives and if it were not for the introduction of the Convoy System, in 1917, many more merchant ships and their crews would have been lost and very likely the war as well. The Battle of the Atlantic was one of the most significant battles of that war and for the seafaring communities across the UK and overseas. We will remember them all now their ‘Battle is Over”.

His Majesty’s Hospital Ship (HMHS) Britannic (below) was launched just before the start of the First World War and was laid up at her builders, Harland and Wolff, in Belfast for many months before being put to use as a hospital ship in 1915. She was shaken by an explosion, caused by a naval mine, off the Greek island of Kea on the morning of 21 November 1916, and sank 55 minutes later, killing 30 people. There were 1,065 people on board; the 1,035 survivors were rescued from the water and from lifeboats. Britannic was the largest ship lost in the First World War.
