The Household Cavalry

The mounted troops of the Household Cavalry on parade during a visit by the President of Mexico to London in March 2009.
The Household Cavalry Regiment (HCR) has an operational role in armoured fighting vehicles which has seen them at the forefront of Britains military operations including the Falklands (1982), the Gulf (1990), Bosnia, Kosovo and most recently in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The Regiments are Guards Regiments and, with the five Foot Guards Regiments, form the Household Division.
The second unit is the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment (HCMR) equipped with horses. It is their unique privilege to meet the requirement to carry out mounted and some dismounted ceremonial duties on State and Royal occasions which include the provision of a Sovereigns Escort most commonly seen at The Queens Birthday Parade in June each year. Other occasions include Sovereigns Escorts for Her Majesty The Queen during State Visits by visiting Heads of State, and as required by Her Majesty anywhere in the Kingdom

The British Army protects the United Kingdom's interests at home and abroad, providing a safe and secure environment in which all British citizens can live and prosper

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic sight of the Household Cavalry on parade during a momentous visit by the President of Mexico to London in March 2009. The mounted troops, belonging to the renowned Household Cavalry Regiment (HCR), showcase their operational role in armoured fighting vehicles, which has placed them at the forefront of Britain's military operations for decades. With an illustrious history that includes serving in conflicts such as the Falklands War, Gulf War, Bosnia, Kosovo, Iraq, and Afghanistan, these Guards Regiments have consistently demonstrated their unwavering dedication and bravery. Alongside five Foot Guards Regiments, they form an integral part of the esteemed Household Division. The second unit depicted here is none other than the distinguished Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment (HCMR), proudly equipped with horses. It is their unique privilege to fulfill both mounted and dismounted ceremonial duties on State and Royal occasions. One notable responsibility includes providing a Sovereign's Escort during significant events like The Queen's Birthday Parade each June. Additionally, they serve as Sovereign's Escorts for Her Majesty The Queen during State Visits by visiting Heads of State or wherever required within the Kingdom. This remarkable print serves as a testament to the rich heritage and enduring significance of Britain's Armed Forces. Captured by Harland Quarrington with utmost precision and artistry, it encapsulates not only a historic moment but also pays tribute to those who selflessly protect our nation.
