"Honi soit qui mal y pense" (French); "Shame be to he who thinks evil" The 1st Regiment of Grenadiers Guards is an elite Napoleonic Wars EU regiment of grenadier guards reknowned for their discipline, professionalism, loyalty & espirit de corps. Experience shows that the fighting spirit of the individual man in battle derives largely from his loyalty to his regiment. Our regiment carries traditions of glory which inspire and maintain that esprit de corps so valuable in the hour of peril, so animating in the crisis of battle. Regimental traditions are important to morale, esprit de corps and operational effectiveness. Regimental History The Grenadier Guards trace their lineage back to 1656, when Lord Wentworth's Regiment was raised in Bruges, in the Spanish Netherlands (present-day Flanders), from gentlemen of the Honourable Artillery Company by the then heir to the throne, Prince Charles (later King Charles II) where it formed a part of exiled King's bodyguard. A few years later, a similar regiment known as John Russell's Regiment of Guards was formed. In 1665, these two regiments were combined to form the 1st Regiment of Foot Guards, consisting of 24 companies of men. Throughout the 18th century, the regiment took part in a number of campaigns including the War of Spanish Succession, the War of Austrian Succession and the Seven Years' War. At the end of the Napoleonic Wars, the regiment gained the name "Grenadier" in July 1815 following a Royal Proclamation.
