We can divide the operation
into three distinct parts—

1:32:03
before the ceremony,
the burial itself...

1:32:06
the return to barracks.
1:32:07
Before the ceremony...
1:32:10
the regimental sergeant major
will parade the battalion in line...

1:32:13
"A" Company on the right...
1:32:15
carrying party
and pipes and drums in the rear...

1:32:18
the color party under Mr. MacKinnon.
1:32:20
- Sir.
- The carrying party itself...

1:32:23
will be comprised of the eight
senior sergeants acting as bearers...

1:32:26
with a full platoon of men drawn from
all companies to pull the gun carriage.

1:32:30
- Good grief.
- I didn't ask for comments.

1:32:34
On my command, the battalion will move
to the right in columns of three...

1:32:37
and slow-march out of barracks.
1:32:40
There will be a rehearsal tomorrow
at 1000 hours. We'll deal with —

1:32:44
- Permission to interrupt, sir.
- Granted.

1:32:47
1000 hours is battalion orders, sir.
1:32:49
There will be
no battalion orders tomorrow.

1:32:51
Begging your pardon, sir.
There are several men under arrest.

1:32:53
Don't answer me back, Mr. Riddick.
1:32:56
Not now, not ever.
1:33:01
The battalion will proceed
at the slow march down to the crossroads...

1:33:04
turning left off Stewart Road
along Bridge Road to the high street...

1:33:07
where the drums —
1:33:10
The drums.
1:33:16
The battalion will halt...
1:33:18
in Lothian Terrace.
1:33:21
Honor arms.
1:33:25
Officers of field rank
will detach themselves...

1:33:28
following the padre...
1:33:30
And the band contingent...
1:33:33
to the grave site.
1:33:37
"The Flowers of the Forest."
1:33:46
- Mr. MacLean.
- Sir.

1:33:48
Who's the best piper?
Who's the picked piper to be?

1:33:52
Let me think now. They're —
They're all good pipers, sir.

1:33:56
Jock's the best piper.
1:33:59
Oh, yes.
Oh, yes, I'm sure of that, sir.
