    Demonstrations of mutual respect conducted seriously and with dignity are almost always elegant, heartwarming and a pleasure to see.

    That and the wee lad was 4 yrs old in 2007 when the video was shot, and would now be about 7 yrs old.

    Nice photos though Bruce, thanks for sharing them

    First time I've had the chance to see this clip. Best word, Respect! I watched it several times and showed my wee lads to show them "how it's done".

    Yup..went back and looked at the year filmed. It seems they have many young fans At the BC Game the young lad marched in with them, played the set..and marched out. All without missing a beat.
