Guardsmen participating in changing the guard, outside Buckingham Palace, London
Guardsmen participating in changing the guard, outside Buckingham Palace, London. The Grenadier Guards (GREN GDS) is the most senior regiment of the Guards Division of the British Army, and, as such, is the most senior regiment of infantry. It is not, however, the most senior regiment of the Army, this position being attributed to the Life Guards. The Coldstream Guards was formed before the Grenadier Guards, but that regiment is ranked after the Grenadiers in seniority as it was a regiment of the New Model Army. The Band of the Grenadier Guards is based in central London and its primary objectives are to support State Events and Public Ceremonial events across the capital and further afield. The Band can be seen on many occasions in public including on the Guard Mount of Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle and of course the world famous 'Trooping the Colour'.
