The essential family spirit of The Regiment is amusingly recalled in a personal recollection by former Grenadier and Member of Parliament John Browne. The stories are sometimes funny and often poignant, encompassing days as a Caterham recruit, battalion life, Churchill's funeral, the TA and Parliament. with some 45 photographs and cartoons, they recall the flavour of a time already beginning to fade from view. Some of ht tales are based upon outrageous experiences. rendered with affection in a witty salute to the Grenadier Guards.
