  • The Rt Hon Douglas Hurd CBE MP LONDON 15 March 1994 Sir VISIT
    The Rt Hon Douglas Hurd CBE MP LONDON 15 March 1994 Sir VISIT OF HM THE QUEEN AND HRH THE DUKE OF EDINBURGH TO THE CAYMAN ISLANDS 1.1 have the honour to report that Her Majesty The Queen and His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh paid a most successful visit to the Cayman Islands from 26-27 February 1994. 2. The visit came eleven years almost to the day since their first visit to the territory. That visit is still remembered by the Cayman Islanders and this second visit will undoubtedly remain in their memories for as long. It was a most happy occasion; the programme went like clockwork and it was clear that both The Queen and The Duke enjoyed visiting one of the remaining Dependent Territories where everything works and where they were truly welcome. 3. I estimate that there were more than 3000 people gathered on the main street overlooking George Town harbour to welcome the Royal couple when they landed by barge from the Royal Yacht Britannia which had sailed into view shortly after 8 a m on Saturday 26 February escorted by the frigate HMS Lancaster. After the usual formalities and presentations the motorcade proceeded to the Legislative Assembly, The Queen and The Duke riding in the Rolls Royce which was purchased by the Cayman Islands Government for this occasion subsequently to become the Governor's official car. After inspecting a Guard of Honour drawn up by the Royal Cayman Islands Police, the Royal Party entered the Assembly where Her Majesty read the Speech from the Throne All members of the Legislative Assembly and their spouses were presented in the Speaker's Room and we then proceeded to what I consider to be the highlight of the visit: a public investiture on the steps of the Assembly when Cayman's first knight, Sir Vassel Johnson, Kt„ CBE, was formally dubbed in front of a large crowd.

  • THE BRITISH ARMY in the LOW COUNTRIES, 1793-1814 By
    ‘FAIRLY OUT-GENERALLED AND DISGRACEFULLY BEATEN’: THE BRITISH ARMY IN THE LOW COUNTRIES, 1793-1814 by ANDREW ROBERT LIMM A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY. University of Birmingham School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law October, 2014. University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT The history of the British Army in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars is generally associated with stories of British military victory and the campaigns of the Duke of Wellington. An intrinsic aspect of the historiography is the argument that, following British defeat in the Low Countries in 1795, the Army was transformed by the military reforms of His Royal Highness, Frederick Duke of York. This thesis provides a critical appraisal of the reform process with reference to the organisation, structure, ethos and learning capabilities of the British Army and evaluates the impact of the reforms upon British military performance in the Low Countries, in the period 1793 to 1814, via a series of narrative reconstructions. This thesis directly challenges the transformation argument and provides a re-evaluation of British military competency in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars.
