Колдстримский гвардейский полк в 1661 году - служил Карлу II так же преданно, как до этого - Кромвелю :)

Monck's Regiment had its origin in two units of Cromwell's 'New Model Army,' which mustered in 1643 and 1645.
This Regiment, and the Royal Horse Guards, remained embodied as distinct units, the former to be known henceforth as the 'Lord General's (Coldstream) Regiment of Foot Guards.'
On February 14, 1661, two Officers and two Civil Commissioners drove in a coach to Tower Hill, where the Lord General's Regiment was mustered.
The Commissioners read them an address from the King, at the conclusion of which they were ordered to lay down their arms as soldiers of Cromwell's New Model Army and to take them up again in the name of King Charles II.
Hence this Regiment--which on the death of Monck, the Lord General [in 1670], became the Coldstream Guards--although ranking second on the list of Infantry, is the oldest regular regiment of the British Army, and has as its motto 'Nulli Secundus.'
The Regiment was armed with matchlocks and pikes.
