I think this incredible mass 'haka' by members of the 2/1st Battalion, Royal New Zealand Infantry, to tribute for three soldiers killed in Afghanistan last week is tremendously moving.

It is an emotive farewell of the soldiers' leaving via the 'waharoa' (the carved entrance way) for their very last time.

Of course, in the YouTube comments there are the usual people from those who can't resist politicising.

Saw it on the news, moving indeed. A sad loss.
