||HMRG|| - Blues & Royals #4606364
Description
Motto: “Shame to him who thinks evil of it,” popularly rendered as “Evil be to him who evil thinks” The Blues and Royals was created in 1969 by the amalgamation of two famous cavalry regiments, the Royal Horse Guards and The Royal Dragoons. Always known as The Blues from the colour of their tunics, the Regiment became a favourite of King George III. They were promoted to Household Cavalry status in 1813, although since their formation they had carried out duties similar to those of The Life Guards. The 1st Dragoons (Royals) were originally raised in London in 1661 to form part of the Garrison of Tangiers and were formerly known as the Tangier Horse. This is commemorated today in the uniform of the amalgamated Regiment, by the wearing of an Eagle on the left sleeve of their tunics, and in the Regimental emblem. The uniform of The Blues and Royals is distinguishable by their blue tunics with red plumes on their helmets.
