The training year has been full throttle in terms of physically enhancing members of the regiment. Commanding Of cer’s PT has been a success with the introduction of strength and conditioning. The emphasis has been on teaching the correct techniques to squat, deadlift and shoulder press. Quality not quantity is the key message from the CPD workshops. The aim of the sessions is to give people the con dence to walk into a gymnasium and train in a safe manner.
Her Majesty the Queen paid tribute to the ‘loyalty and devotion’ of The Royal Lancers by renaming the regiment at Windsor castle on 6 April 17. The Queen granted the distinction of honori c suf x ‘The Royal Lancers (Queen Elizabeth’ Own). The honour recognises their services to Queen and the Queen Mother, as well as commemorating her Majesty’s 70th anniversary as Colonel-in- Chief.
The essence of being a Royal Lancer is encompassed by the Regimental ethos: All of one company, do as you ought, not as you want, think to the nish!
