The Cavalry Troopers of the Household Division are the most immaculately turned-out soldiers on earth, their magnificent ceremonial presence exceeded only by their superlative performance on warfighting operations around the world. Those mounted and marching soldiers are not just for show.
Within the Household Cavalry itself, the 'Princess Elizabeth Cup' is a competition between troopers to achieve the absolute highest standards of personal deportment.
The reward for the winners is one of the greatest possible honours a trooper can be awarded- a meeting with the King

Hi, I was born in England but moved to Ireland when I was 14 but I plan to go back to England to join the army (infantry to be precise) in a year or so but I was wondering what would be the best way to start preparing. I'm 6ft2 and 105kg and I live in a hilly countryside next to some mountains. Is there anything I should focus on in particular and or do you have any videos explaining what one should do in preparation to join?
Hello from Sedona Arizona, I came across your channel from """ London Frank "" channel, I was wondering if y'alls came across that young man who always dresses in the Red Guard coat, anyway I was just wondering if y'alls knew or know of the coolest little King's Guards London Frank, well if y'alls happened to come across this young boy please kindly give him a big O'L salute because he's always at the ready to give a salute to y'all!!!! Now I have seen him in the Castle were the Kings/Queen's Guards walk up and down the path and little Frank is always there and those troops sure do now how to get a recruitment from such a young lad! I was just wondering if y'alls could make up some official troop coin or medallion or medal with ribbon for those special kid's that y'all seem to get with every parade y'all do! So my hats off to you boy's from an old dog myself but little London Frank sure does brighten up the days around here and I was just wondering if y'alls could make it a soldier thing for these types of kid's, I recently saw the SWEDISH GUARD AND THE LITTLE BOY SOLDIER WHO HAD A POT ON TOP OF HIS HEAD WITH FOLDED UMBRELLA ACTING AS A IMAGINARY RIFLE! Such a sweet moment between those two as well! Well I know Frank and his parents get around so I was just wondering if y'alls could just make it that much more special moment between the Guard's and the local children who get mesmerized by your uniforms! But I'm glad that I came across your channel but pls REMEMBER YOU'RE YOUNGEST FAN SOON TO FELLOW GUARDS MAN LONDON FRANK! hey congratulations to y'alls on getting your awards hope you can get a good stretch in after being on top of a beautiful creature!!! So we subscribed so thx for all your sacrifices young lads, thx for keeping freedom free! Godspeed!

Just passed my assessment center with an A grade had my bleep test with Colin! Small world I got a high score on my cognitive test 75+ and have been told to look over the technical job roles instead of grenadier guards I allready have a level 2 apprentiship in welding and engineering but would still like to be on the front line fighting do you have any advice?

You could always do a few years in the Grenadiers and then transfer your skills to a more technical outfit like the Royal Engineers.
I wondered if you could do a video or answer a question about the essential skills everyday citizens should know in preparation for wartime. I read in the the news that the UK are likely to enter a war within 3 years, and the people are largely unprepared for it. So, given this detail is there anything you would advise, or at least point in the right direction for??
Luv him.😉🏅🎈💕🦋💗...so awesome 💯😊😁😊😎
I grew up on our ranch in America, southern Michigan, I had a red & black nose quarter horse named Cody, his father was a direct descendant of 1995 Mr.Impressive world champion General Jack a Thoroughbred Mustang. I also had a Belgium mare blonde mane, tail even her socks, her was Daisy May, anyway may our Father Lord God bless you & yours always…
Love vittorio, sorry you did not win. You did Scotland proud.
I'm divided, I never thought bulling boots could be so therapeutic but it is. It's just a shame there has to be a deadline involved with it. And too much shouting.
Familiar sights. I was an army cadet in the only detachment in London affiliated with The Life Guards. I've decided to go back to it.
