CEREMONIAL FOR THE ARMY This publication supersedes Ceremonial for The Army 2008. Crown Copyright Reserved Prepared under the direction of the Chief of the General Staff MINISTRY OF DEFENCE Army Code No. 64332 Cer Pol & Plans (PS12) Nov 2017 AMENDMENTS Amdt No. Date Signature FOREWORD CEREMONIAL FOR THE ARMY 2017 ‘The finest edge is made with the blunt whetstone.’ (John Lyly: Euphues 1579) “A Ceremonial parade, impeccably performed, can never fail to be a source of inspiration to those who watch it or take part in it. It is the noblest and proudest form of drill. Based on the ‘blunt whetstone’ of drill instruction to recruits it was for many hundreds of years the foundation of battle discipline in all Armies. Vegetius, in AD 378, wrote, ‘troops who march in an irregular and disorderly manner are always in great danger of being defeated’. Today, once the elements of discipline have been instilled through drill on the parade square, it develops, naturally, into various forms of crew drill, gun drill and battle drill, but the aim of discipline remains unchanged. This aim is the conquest of fear. Drill helps to achieve this because when it is carried out men tend to lose their individuality and are unified into a group under obedience to orders. If men are to give of their best in war they must be united. Discipline seeks through drill to instil into all ranks this sense of unity, by requiring them to obey orders as one man. A Ceremonial parade, moreover, provides an occasion for men to express pride in their performance, pride in their Regiment or Corps and pride in the profession of Arms.” (Signed) Alexander of Tunis, F.M.

The Sovereign's Birthday Parade
THE SOVEREIGNS’ BIRTHDAY PARADES - SNAPSHOTS OVER TWO CENTURIES By Colin Dean, former Band Secretary, Irish Guards The origins of the parade popularly known as Trooping the Colour are believed to date from around the beginning of the nineteenth century. Guard Mounting took place daily on Horse Guards Parade prior to the King’s (or Queen’s) Guard for the day marching to St. James’s Palace (later Buckingham Palace) to take over the duties. The custom developed of augmenting this parade on the Sovereign’s birthday by including the flank companies from the three regiments of the Brigade of Guards, as well as the Household Cavalry who took part prior to riding under the arch to become the King’s (or Queen’s) Life Guard. King George III 1809: A report in the Morning Post of the 19th January 1809 makes what appears to be the first documented reference to the three Foot Guards bands being together on Horse Guards Parade: ‘Yesterday morning the Duke of Gloucester attended with the Dukes of York and Cambridge, on the Parade in St. James’s Park, to inspect the battalion of Grenadiers*, previous to their mounting guard. At the same time a very novel and grand military spectacle was exhibited, as we believe, never was displayed before; the whole of the numerous Bands of the three regiments of Foot Guards attended, with new state uniforms on. The first and second Bands wore new jockey velvet caps; the three Bands marched as far as the entrance to the Stable-yard; the first and third Bands went on with the King’s Guard, and the second proceeded to the Queen’s Guard, near the Queen’s Palace’.

Hosehold Cavalry
Changing the Guard, Guarding the Change of History 1. INTRODUCTION The Queen's Guard and Queen's Life Guard are the names given to contingents of cavalry and infantry soldiers charged with guarding the official royal residences in London. The British Army has had regiments of both Horse Guards and Foot Guards since before the restoration of King Charles II, and, since 1660, these have been responsible for guarding the Sovereign Palaces. The Queen's Guard and Queen's Life Guard is mounted at the royal residences which come under the operating area of London District, which is responsible for the administration of the Household Division; this covers Buckingham Palace, St James's Palace and the Tower of London, as well as Windsor Castle. The Queen's Guard is also mounted at the sovereign's other official residence, the Palace of Holyroodhouse, but not as regularly as in London. In Edinburgh, the guard is the responsibility of the resident infantry battalion at Redford Barracks. It is not mounted at the Queen's private residences at Sandringham or Balmoral. The Queen's Guard is the name given to the contingent of infantry responsible for guarding Buckingham Palace and St. James's Palace (including Clarence House) in London. The guard is made up of a company of soldiers from a single regiment, which is split in two, providing a detachment for Buckingham Palace and a detachment for St James's Palace. Because the Sovereign's official residence is still St James's, the guard commander (called the 'Captain of the Guard') is based there, as are the regiment's colours.
