EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic moment captured in 1955, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, in her esteemed role as Captain-General of the Honourable Artillery Company, presents new colours to Lieutenants F.H.B. Layfield (holding the Queen's Colour) and J.S. Teakle (holding the Regimental Colour). This marked the first time a British monarch had the privilege of bestowing new colours upon this esteemed military organization. The Queen, resplendent in her royal regalia, dons an elegant gown and the Order of the Garter sash, while a crisp military uniform adorns her officers. The solemn ceremony took place in the presence of numerous dignitaries and members of the Honourable Artillery Company. The presentation of new colours is a significant event in the military calendar, symbolizing the renewal of a regiment's commitment to the monarch and the nation. The Queen's Colour, bearing the monarch's cipher and the Union Jack, represents the sovereign's presence on the battlefield, while the Regimental Colour, displaying the regiment's distinctive emblem, signifies the soldiers' loyalty and courage. Lieutenants Layfield and Teakle proudly hold their new colours, their faces reflecting a sense of pride and accomplishment. The Queen, with a regal air, presents them with their new colours, each one grasping the hilt of her sword to ensure the secure attachment of the ribbons. This photograph captures the essence of tradition, loyalty, and the deep-rooted bond between the monarchy and the military, as the Queen, in her role as Captain-General, plays a pivotal part in upholding this long-standing custom.
