I agree, nothing like a good military march to get the blood pumping and set the mood for some quiet time with the favorite pieces in your collection. One of my favorite places to buy German military march music is Brandenburg Historica.

Thanks for the heads up for a new place to buy some German military parade music

Every good ceremony has to begin with the "Regimentsgruß"

Except the "Großer Zapfenstreich", the most important German military ceremony. There it has to be - of course - the "Marsch des York'schen Korps"

Being new to the world of German military collecting I must ask because its long been a curiosity of mine, what is the name given to the ceremonial piece carried which holds the federal standard, it has the red and yellow tassles suspended from two sides of it and is carried I guess amongst the procession of an Honor Guard?

**Proud Kraut** · 10-20-2011, 11:18 PM

That's a "Schellenbaum" (Turkish Crescent). You'll find more about it here:

http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schellenbaum

The bearer of the Schellenbaum, the flag and, in some cases, the tambourmajor are wearing special white gauntlet gloves "Stulpenhandschuhe". I will post pictures of them later.

I wonder how the nickname 'Jingling Johnny' came to be of use for a Turkish Crescent?
