Welsh Guards

The Welsh Guards are a regiment of the British Army responsible for ceremonial duties and active military service. Founded in 1915, they are part of the Household Division, which provides guards for royal residences and state occasions. Their roles include protecting royal family members, participating in national events, and serving in overseas deployments. Comprising trained soldiers from Wales, they uphold tradition, discipline, and excellence in both ceremonial and combat tasks, contributing to national security and public events across the UK and abroad.
