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’.

For over 32 years, the Army Reserve has been an integral part of my life and perhaps the one constant of my adult years. Like many fellow reservists, my service has been part of a fairly consistent juggling act between the competing demands of a hectic professional career, private life and soldiering. In writing this foreword I recognise that so much has changed. Rather than looking ‘down and in’ at the use of The reserves have evolved from almost entirely reserves by the single services, we have been contingent forces – that trained at weekends tasked with looking ‘up and out’. and annual camps, recruited locally, and were At its heart, this Reserve Forces Review 2030 encapsulated by names such as ‘Territorial (RF30) is about people and skills, and how Army’ and ‘Royal Auxiliary Air Force’ – to the Defence, industry, government and wider reserve forces we have today across all three society can share them.

    Not a Lot of People Know This – Podcast 3 – Text

    Horse Guards, Whitehall, London, SW1A 2AX HCavMuseum HCavMuseum householdcavalrymuseum In this week’s podcast, the third in the series, I’m going to recount some stories about our animals – and they are not all horses… It’s a dog’s life in the Household Cavalry The Army’s love of mascots and pets is shared by the Household Cavalry, and includes a Newfoundland dog called Duke who attached himself to The Blues during the Peninsula War of 1808-1814. Duke was used by the Regiment during the advance through Spain to flush out rats from deserted farmhouses, prior to the ruins being occupied as bivouacs. Somewhat unkindly, given his ratting duties, the dog was repeatedly traded-in with locals in return for free wine. Nonetheless, Duke always managed to re-join his comrades, returned with the Regiment to England and became something of a hero: his portrait still hangs in the Officers House of Household Cavalry Regiment at Bulford. Another Blues dog, Spot, belonged to Captain William Tyrwhitt Drake and was present at the Battle of Waterloo; he was also memorialised with a painting, by William Henry Davis, painted on 5th November 1816, which hangs in the Mess at Hyde Park Barracks. That is not, however, the end of doggie tales of The Blues and Royals, for there exists in the reserve collection of the Household Cavalry Museum at Combermere Barracks an engraved silver dog collar, embellished with medal ribbons, which attests to the existence of Bob, a mongrel dog who served with The Blues before, during and after the 2nd Boer War.
