  • The British Army Uniform
    The British Army Uniform The British Army uniform developed along roughly the same lines as uniforms in other European armies. Its signature colour had become standardised as red for both infantry (foot) and cavalry (mounted) units by the end of the 17th century, except for the Royal Horse Guards and Royal Artillery who wore dark blue; then khaki (for everyday wear) and blue (for parade) in the 1930s. Netherwear and equipment followed European fashion. Exotic costume, such as that of hussars and zouaves, was either embraced late and toned down, or not embraced at all. carry on luggage size The history of the British Army uniform is notable for an early and even eager embrace of camouflage in the form of khaki during the late 19th century. This reflected the exigencies of colonial war and the freedom allowed, and taken, by many of the officers who fought it. But it may also have had an aesthetic impulse. Armies in Europe were settling on mostly dark blue tunics and black equipment as a halfway house between display and practicality. This was not possible for the British army, wedded as it was to red tunics which in turn required white equipment to look pleasing. To become less conspicuous, the British army had no choice but to abandon red altogether on active service. mother of pearl button British army uniforms currently exist in several grades, which are worn depending on the requirements of a unit or individual, ranging from ceremonial uniforms to combat dress. While there are officially fifteen different grades (or 'Numbers'), many of these are rarely worn or phased out altogether.

  • Gurkhas: Terms and Conditions of Service
    Gurkhas: Terms and Conditions of Service Standard Note: SN/IA/4671 Last updated: 12 June 2009 Author: Claire Taylor Section International Affairs and Defence Section The Terms and Conditions of Service of the British Army’s Brigade of Gurkhas were originally set down in accordance with the Tripartite Agreement of 1947 between the UK, India and Nepal. The agreement provided commonality with respect to key Service conditions such as pay and pensions, irrespective of whether Gurkhas were enlisted in the British or Indian Armies. Over the last few years various changes to Gurkha terms and conditions of service have been made in order to bring them more closely into line with their counterparts in the British Army. In September 2004 the decision to grant Gurkhas indefinite leave to remain in the UK upon completion of four years of service and the opportunity to eventually apply for British citizenship was announced by the Government. Changes to the Married Accompanied Service Allowance were also made in August 2005. In addition the MOD also announced in January 2005 that it would undertake a comprehensive review of Gurkha terms and conditions of service. The conclusions and recommendations of that review were published in March 2007. This note provides a brief history of the Gurkhas and the basic obligations for terms and conditions of service which were initially set down under the Tripartite Agreement. It examines the subsequent changes to those terms and conditions of service, including the wide-ranging recommendations of the MOD’s review. Further detailed information on the recent changes to immigration and citizenship rules and pension rights relating to Gurkhas following the March 2007 review is available in the following Library Standard Notes: SN/HA/4399, Immigration: discharged members of the Armed Forces, 11 June 2009 SN/BT/4375, Gurkha Pensions, 12 June 2009 This information is provided to Members of Parliament in support of their parliamentary duties and is not intended to address the specific circumstances of any particular individual.
