The lunch was a great success with Her Majesty seeming to enjoy the rather different experience of being able to order from a menu. Regimental Remembrance Day took place on Sunday 21st May and was attended by The Colonel. The Guards Chapel was full and The Colonel spoke to a large number of people both after the Service and after laying the wreath at the Guards’ Memorial. 1 www.grengds.com Once a Grenadier Always a Grenadier No one can have missed the announcement that, after 65 years of loyal service, The Colonel would retire from carrying out royal engagements. This does not mean that he is stepping down as Colonel! He has said that he is very happy to continue for the moment and already has the November Council meeting firmly in his diary; however, it does mean that he will only carry out very ‘light duties’.

  • HRH Prince Philip by Royal Appointment…
    HRH Prince Philip By Royal Appointment… Steve Slater looks back at the Turbulent flying episode of the late Duke of Edinburgh… rinces Harry and William have rightly hit the headlines in past years with their rotary- wing flying and their father, Prince Charles, was an enthusiastic pilot too. However, so far only one member of the Royal Family has ever flown a single-seat aircraft, and that is the late and much-mourned, HRH Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh. PWhile Prince Philip had been RAF-trained (on a DH82A Tiger Moth and a Harvard), the single-seater that he flew wasn’t a fighter type. It was a Druine Turbulent, owned by the Tiger Club and powered by a 1500cc Volkswagen. It was a sign of a passion for flying, which led to the Duke clocking up 5,986 hours in 59 types of aircraft before hanging up his headset in 1997. The invitation to fly the Turbulent came from his equerry, Squadron Leader John Severne (a former Lightning pilot, later to become Captain of the Queen’s Flight, and later still Air Vice-Marshal Sir John Severne). He had used the aircraft, G-APNZ, in the 1959 King’s Cup Air Race, ‘entered’ by Prince Philip in the manner of a racehorse owner and trainer. The aircraft was specially painted white with a green flash with the Duke’s crest painted on the cockpit side. On 24 October of that same year, the Turbulent was flown from the Tiger Club’s base at Redhill to White Waltham, while Prince Philip arrived from Windsor Castle and donned his RAF flying suit.

It is worth taking stock of what has been achieved so far, and ensuring that our direction of travel continues to be understood by the Army. This comprehensive update achieves this purpose well and should be read widely. I wish to highlight four particular points: • Our success in establishing Defence Engagement as a core Defence output. Not only will this enable us to make a crucial contribution to conflict prevention, but it will enhance our contingent capability by developing our understanding. It will also give the Adaptable Force a challenging focus in addition to enduring operations and homeland resilience. • We must be clear that our capacity to influence overseas is founded upon our credibility as a war-fighting Army, capable of projecting force anywhere in the world.

    The History of 119 Infantry Brigade in the Great War with Special Reference to the Command of Brigadier-General Frank Percy Crozier by Michael Anthony Taylor A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham September 2016 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract 119 Brigade, 40th Division, had an unusual origin as a ‘left-over’ brigade of the Welsh Army Corps and was the only completely bantam formation outside 35th Division. This study investigates the formation’s national identity and demonstrates that it was indeed strongly ‘Welsh’ in more than name until 1918. New data on the social background of men and officers is added to that generated by earlier studies. The examination of the brigade’s actions on the Western Front challenges the widely held belief that there was an inherent problem with this and other bantam formations. The original make-up of the brigade is compared with its later forms when new and less efficient units were introduced.

  • A Service of Thanksgiving to Mark the 70Th Anniversary of Ve
    Westminster Abbey A SERVICE OF THANKSGIVING TO MARK THE 70 TH ANNIVERSARY OF VE DAY Sunday 10 th May 2015 11.00 am FOREWORD Welcome to Westminster Abbey for this service of thanksgiving and commemoration on the 70th anniversary of Victory in Europe. The Abbey played a full part on the day itself. After making his public broadcast officially announcing Germany’s total surrender, the Prime Minister, Winston Churchill MP, went to the House of Commons to make a short address and then moved that the House attend at the Church of St Margaret’s, Westminster, the Parish Church of the House of Commons, to ‘give humble and reverent thanks to almighty God for our deliverance from the threat of German domination.’ The House then rose and followed the Speaker to the Church. In Westminster Abbey itself, on VE Day, short services of thanksgiving were held every hour from 9.00 am to 10.00 pm. An estimated 25,000 people attended during the day, with the Lord Chancellor and House of Lords attending at 3.00 pm. The short services offered ‘high praise and thanksgiving to the God of all mercies for the success which He has granted to us and to our Allies: for the faith which has upheld us through the years of danger and suffering; for the skill of our leaders and the valour and steadfastness of sailors, soldiers and airmen; for the hope that we are about to enter upon a righteous and abiding peace; for the holy memory and high example of that great company of men and women, known and unknown, whose faith and courage God has inspired and used.’ A service was also held on the following Sunday, 13th May, when the standards of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa were laid on the High Altar to symbolise the loyalty of the whole Empire during the war.
