Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the history and traditions of the Irish Guards, an elite infantry regiment of the British Army. Formed in 1900 as part of the British Army's reforms to modernize its infantry, the unit's storied lineage traces back to the Irish Brigade, a group of exiled Irish soldiers who fought for France during the 17th and 18th centuries. The author explores the Irish Guards' early combat experiences in the Boer War, and their distinguished service in the First World War, during which they suffered heavy casualties in the trenches of the Western Front. In addition, the book delves into the Irish Guards' role in the Second World War, where they participated in the Normandy landings and other key battles. The author also discusses the regiment's post-war involvement in peacekeeping operations and its continued service as a ceremonial guard.
