As the private forces of the British royal family, the Royal Guard and the Royal Guard of the British royal family maintain a special relationship with the British royal family. They are the last guards in the world who have devoted themselves to the monarch. They have maintained the same traditions, costumes, manners and styles for hundreds of years. So what is the combat effectiveness of this army with ancient cultural heritage in the British army? What's the combat level?

As we know, in the British Royal Guard, the members of the royal family are the head of the Royal Guard and the honorary colonel. The current commander-in-chief of the Royal Guard is Prince Philip, the husband of Queen Elizabeth II. The Queen of England, Prince Charles, who is about to inherit the throne, and other members of the royal family often visit various units of the Guard regularly, attend ceremonies and commemorative meetings of various regiments, and get along with these soldiers and their families as a family. In addition, due to historical reasons, the British royal family has never given the British Royal title, only the Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force. The guard, nominally affiliated with the British army, has the title of royal, which shows that its relationship with the British royal family is inseparable.

The Royal Guard not only undertakes the task of guarding the British royal family and the houses of British dignitaries, but also participated in many wars in Britain and played a decisive role in many important battles. Therefore, in the eyes of most British people, the Royal Guard is a symbol of Britain's excellent tradition and the long-term stability of the British constitutional monarchy.

At present, the total number of Royal Guards is12,000, of which 4,000 are stationed in London to defend Buckingham Palace. Others were assigned to different important positions. For the British Isles, there are only over 200,000 troops,130,000 army, and 10 is the Royal Guard. Usually, there are less than 2000 cavalry and infantry in the honor guard. In London, the easiest place to see the Royal Guard is in front of Buckingham Palace. A changing ceremony will be held every morning 1 1: 30 to noon 12.

The Royal Guard is an elite British army with advanced weapons, strict discipline and loyalty. The first password of the Royal Guards is to carry out the king's orders regardless of casualties. Usually only the Royal Guard can be equipped with the latest combat equipment and weapons first, and the latest weapons in Britain will be equipped with the Royal Guard first, and then it will be the turn of other troops. It can be seen that the Royal Guard is the elite of the British army.

In fact, it is often used as an elite force in key places in combat. Look at the performance of the Royal Guard in Falklands War and Iraq War. Prince William also participated in the Iraq war to gain political capital.

The Royal Guards Division of the British Army now has 5 Guards Infantry Regiments, 2 Guards Cavalry Regiments and 1 Reserve Regiment. The Royal Guard is a British Army series, which is divided into cavalry and infantry. There are about 1500 cavalry, which are divided into three regiments, namely "Wang Jin Wei Tuan", "Wang Lan Tuan" and the Palace Etiquette Cavalry Corps. There are about 5,000 infantry, consisting of 1 infantry division and 8 infantry battalions. In addition, the Royal Armored Tankers also have four Royal Guards. The dress of its Guards Infantry Regiment is always the same scarlet tight jacket and tall bearskin hat, which is also the biggest feature of the British Royal Guard.

The First Guards Corps established a brilliant record, and defeated Napoleon's grenadiers Guards Corps in the Battle of Waterloo 18 15. After that, it wore a bearskin hat to commemorate the victory of the war to show that its combat capability was better than Napoleon's army.
