A Brief History of the First Foot Guards
"A 12 company regiment of Guards was formed by Charles II in 1659 while in exile from England. The unit remained in Flanders when Charles returned home in 1660. At this time he created another regiment of Guards, also of 12 companies. In 1662 these two units were amalgamated to form the Royal or King's Regiment of Foot Guards. The name later became the First Regiment of Foot Guards, and was changed to Grenadier Guards in 1815 after Waterloo. On 13 February 1776 orders were issued from Guards Headquarters in London forming a detachment from the three Regiments of Foot Guards for service in the war in America. The detachment was to consist of 15 privates from each of the 64 companies of Foot Guards. Officers, non-commissioned officers, and musicians were also drawn from the regiments. The unit embarked for America on 2 May 1776." (Source: Original research by Ms. Linnea Bass, Company of Military Historians, and the late Bill Burke. The regiment is the most senior in the British Army, so it has a long and illustrious history. In 1656, King Charles II, while in exile after the execution of his father, raised a regiment from his loyal exiles at Bruges, in Flanders. It was called "The Royal Regiment of Guards". On the King's return to his throne in 1660, he disbanded the old Parliamentarian Army and commissioned another Regiment of twelve companies for his personal protection. The first of which was called the King's Company. In 1664, the Royal Regiment of Guards was recalled from Flanders and merged with the King's Company to form the "King's Regiment of Foot Guards." By 1665 the Regiment had become the "First Regiment of Foot Guards," which it remained until 1815, when the title was changed to "The First Regiment or Grenadier Regiment of Foot Guards." The Regiment has fought in almost every major campaign of the British Army since that time. During the 17th Century it served in Morocco and in the naval wars against the Dutch and later played a distinguished part in the Wars of the Spanish Succession under the Duke of Marlborough, being present at his brilliant victories of Blenheim, Ramillies, Oudenarde, and Malplaquet. During the American Revolution, the Regiment formed part of the force, which occupied New York after the battle of Long Island in September, 1776. It was prominent in the Battle of White Plains in October of that year. In 1777, the Regiment fought in Pennsylvania, and played an important part in the British victory at Brandywine. In 1779, the Regiment was sent on an expedition to the South, and in February of 1781 it crossed the Catawba River in the van of the British force under heavy fire. Later that year, the Regiment fought at the Battle of Guilford Court House, in which the British army defeated a rebel force more than three times its size. As a result of particular bravery shown at the battle of Waterloo in 1815, the Regiment became "The First Regiment or Grenadier Regiment of Foot Guards", becoming the only regiment in the British Army to have earned its title as a result of the part it played in action. Today you're likely to see the 'The Grenadier Guards' in London on guard duty at Buckingham Palace, or taking part in that most amazing display of precision drill, 'the Trooping of the Colours'. |
