Tune of the Day: King George V's Army
Scottish march by Pipe Major George S. McLennan
This pipe march was composed by Pipe Major George S. McLennan of the 1st Gordon Highlanders; the title refers to the British army of World War I, of which McLennan was a member.
There is some confusion of titles between “King George V's Army” and “Kitchener's Army”, two distinct tunes albeit both composed by McLennan.
