    On Sunday the 5th June, our #TrustedGuardians had the honour of providing personnel for the Platinum Jubilee Parade. Afterwards, we thought we should commemorate Her Majesty's 70 years on the throne in our own way. @royalarmouredcorps #PlatinumJubilee

    We are sad to hear of the passing of 1966 World Cup winner, Jack Charlton. During his service, he served 2yrs (1953-55) & captained the Horse Guards Football Team in Hanover to victory. Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time. We Will Remember Him.

    It is with heavy hearts we announce the passing of Magpie, truly a Troop favourite. He was a very large lad, with bags of character, whose bravery made him an ideal candidate to be a 'Standard horse'. We thank him for his service with The Life Guards and will miss him terribly.

    It is with great sadness that we announce the loss of Trooper Tristan Rodick following a motorcycle accident on 4th August. Our thoughts are with his family and friends and he will be sorely missed. At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, we will remember him.

    Time to get some grass 🌱🐴. Just a few of the ‘Cav Blacks’ (and greys) that have been put out to grass at the Defence Animal Centre in Melton Mowbray. They will be back in London in the Spring for the Major General’s parade. #holiday #rest #relaxation
