  • Rose, Raymond John Corporal Governor General's Foot Guards
    Rose, Raymond John Corporal Governor General's Foot Guards C58338 Raymond John Rose was born in Bridgend, Wales, UK on Oct. 24, 1919 to parents, John Rose (1880-1941) and Ada Robinson (1881-1961). The whole family including children, Dorothy Enid, age 15; Raymond, age 10 and Mervyn, eight, had immigrated to Canada in April, 1929, aboard the steamship, SS Montrose. Mr. Rose was sponsored by a George Hall of Renfrew as his gardener but the father later became a railroad employee. Raymond Rose acquired 11 years of public education before he went to work as a weaver at the Renfrew Woollen Mills for seven years. At enlistment on July 3, 1940 with the Governor General‘s Foot Guards Regiment (his service number was C58338), he stood five foot seven inches and weighed 136 pounds. Raymond obtained military training at Camp Borden in Ontario, Sussex Camp in New Brunswick, and Debert, Nova Scotia. Sadly, his father died of cerebral thrombosis on May 3, 1941 the year before Raymond shipped out to the United Kingdom on Sept. 24, 1942. He served in the U.K. as a tank driver for nearly two years until July 22, 1944 when he was sent to the Normandy beachhead. His younger brother, Mervyn “Bill” Rose also served overseas in the Canadian Army. Arriving on the beaches of Normandy on July 22, 1944, Guardsman Raymond Rose was a gun operator with the Governor General’s Foot Guards (GGFG) regiment. This tank regiment was part of the Canadian Armoured Brigade that fought for seven months through France, Belgium, the Netherlands and finally into Germany.

  • Assessorato Regionale, Dipartimento Dei Beni Culturali E Dell'identità
    Assessorato Regionale, Dipartimento dei Beni Culturali Città di Acireale Lions Club Acireale e dell’Identità Siciliana Assessorato Regionale, Dipartimento dei Beni Culturali e dell’Identità Siciliana Città di Acireale Lions Club Acireale Collection of historical uniforms Ing. Aldo Scaccianoce Lions Club Acireale Anno Sociale 2012-2013 Presidente Rosario Musmeci Galatea Editrice - Acireale INTRODUCTION The collection of uniforms located in the Town Hall takes its name from the scholar Aldo Scaccianoce, who gathered each piece. The relics shown have a double significance: historical and artistic. Every piece has its own historical story to tell, as they have all been worn during events that have shaped European history over the course of the XIX century, while the nineteenth century has been pregnant with highly artistic cultural moments since the Napoleonic period. These relics, in fact, also give testimony of fashion, taste, make and aesthetic quality that make them real masterpieces of craftsmanship. The Assessorato ai Beni Culturali (Department of Cultural Heritage) of the Region of Sicily added the collection to its priceless patrimony in 1988, to avoid the dispersal of the important cultural collection. The exposition installation was done by the architect Giuseppe Anfuso. Within each single cabinet each relic preserves its historical, military and artistic relevance. PREFACE The work presented is born from the desire of the Lions Club Aci- reale to give service to the town of Acireale, favouring its tourism, and with it, its economy.

    Army Policy & Secretariat Army Headquarters IDL 24 Blenheim Building Marlborough Lines Andover Hampshire, SP11 8HJ United Kingdom ArmySec/Equip/Cloth/FOI2021/02837 E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.army.mod.uk Jon Potter 01 April 2021 request-735902- [email protected] Dear Mr Potter, Thank you for your email of 12 March in which you requested the following information: “Could you kindly provide the height measurements for Bearskin caps worn by the Foot Guard Regiments at both the front and the rear. Could you provide this for Guardsmen, NCO's, Officer's and any other rank or appointment where there is a variation. In the past, the height of the Bearskin was based on the height of the soldier (for example Army Dress Regulations 1934 - para 683 provides different measurements based on the Officer's height). Is this still the case today? Is it also possible to provide this for any other Regiment still wearing Bearskins such as the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards (Including the White drummer bearskin), HAC & The Royal Highland Fusiliers?” I am treating your correspondence as a request for information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the Act). A search for the information has now been completed within the Ministry of Defence, and I can confirm that information in scope of your request is held. Army Dress Regulations Part 3 – Household Division states that the standard bearskin cap worn by officers of the 5 Regiments of Foot Guards is 11.5 inches at the front and 16 inches at the rear. Measurements for all Other Ranks (ORs) from Guardsman to Warrant Officer Class 1 are not specified.

  • 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’.
