regiment bears do its nickname that
The Holy Boys, the nickname of the Nor folk Regiment, arose through a curious mistake during the Peninsular War, The Spanish took the Azure of Britannia on the crossblets of the
regiment for that of the Virgin Mary-hence
the name.
The Suffolk Regiment answers to the name or "The Old Dosen," from the number of their regimental district, "No. 13.
The Indian Mutiny was responsible for many brave and daring deeds." One of them has been handed down in the name of "The Illustrious
Garrison," the name the Prince Albert's (Somer- setsbire Light Tofantry) are proud of owning as a nickname. The name arose from a quola tion in the official dispatch referring to them after the siege of Jellalabad in 1842.
A. Calunel Howard at one tims commanded the Princess of Wales' Own (Yorkshire Reg! ment), and in those days its facings were green, For many years the regiment patiently lived under the uncupliftona- appellation of "Ho- ward's Garbage

The nickname of the. Gloucestershire Regi- ment, "The Fore and Aft," was won at Aleran- dila in rot. The regiment was attacked by French cavalry while in line, and there being no time to form a square, the colonel ordered the rear rank to "ghtab out face," and back to back the regiment stood, eventually beating off the Fier.ch horse, 7,000 in 1 umber.
When the disturbances which preceded the outbreak of the American War commenced in 1770, le 19th Foot (Worcestershire Regiment) was the first one to draw blood. The inhabi- tants of Boston, in the Bitterness of their hearts, spoke of the soldiers as the "Veln Openers," and by that nickname has the regiment since *been known.
