Summary "Historical Record of the Third, or Prince of Wales' Regiment of Dragoon Guards" is a historical account produced in the early 19th century. This work provides a detailed narrative of the formation of the regiment in 1685 and its subsequent military services up to 1838. The text serves to document important military engagements, actions, and the notable achievements of this significant unit within the British Army. The opening of the record outlines the historical context of the regiment's establishment during Monmouth's Rebellion in 1685, detailing how several noblemen raised troops to support the crown. Led by the Earl of Plymouth, the regiment first served as the Fourth Horse and was noted for its loyalty and valor, undergoing reviews and establishing a structure that would be pivotal in its early history. The introduction elucidates the motives behind maintaining such military records, emphasizing the importance of heroism and tradition as inspiration for contemporary soldiers. This historical narrative sets a foundation for understanding the regiment's distinguished military past. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
