The Honourable Artillery Company has been active since 1537 and is the oldest regiment in the British Army.
It has a long history of tradition, being referred to as a regiment as far back as the 1600s, and remains so to this day.
The HAC also has the distinction, alongside the five regiments of Foot Guards, to be one of few units never to have been amalgamated with another.
