1. Title: "The Queens (Royal West Surrey Regiment) in Dress Uniform, Early 19th Century" This evocative photograph print, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, captures the grandeur and tradition of The Queens (Royal West Surrey Regiment) in their full dress uniforms during the early 19th century. The regiment, officially known as the 2nd Regiment of Foot or the 2nd Regiment of Foot (The Queen's), was a renowned military unit of the British Army with a rich history that can be traced back to 1661. The soldiers in this image proudly display their regimental colours, adorned with the monarch's cypher and the regimental badge – a crowned 'W' for West Surrey. Their red coats, white facings, and black bearskin hats are immaculately pressed, reflecting the meticulous attention to detail and discipline that were hallmarks of the British military during this era. The Queens Regiment was a significant part of the British military establishment, participating in numerous campaigns and battles throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. They fought valiantly in the Seven Years' War, the American Revolution, the Peninsular War, and the Crimean War, among others. Their unwavering loyalty and dedication to the crown earned them the prestigious title 'Royal' in 1832. This photograph print offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a tangible connection to the history of The Queens (Royal West Surrey Regiment) and the military traditions of Britain during the 19th century. It serves as a testament to the courage, discipline, and pride of the soldiers who served in this esteemed regiment.
