History of the Fort Henry Guard
Since its founding in 1938, the Fort Henry Guard has re-created the British military tradition of a bygone era. Perpetuating Queen Victoria's renowned "Thin Red Line", the Guard has given hundreds of thousands of visitors a sugar-coated pill of Kingston's military history in the year 1867.
Composed entirely of high school, college and university students, the Fort Henry Guard and its commitment to excellence has performed at countless events and ceremonies in Canada and abroad, most notably the prestigious Royal Tournament in England. Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Phillip and many noted visitors from around the world have expressed their sincere appreciation of Fort Henry and the Guard.
The Guard Colours are based on the regulations in effect in 1867 and were presented to the Fort Henry Guard in 1955. They have been carried on parade since. The Regimental Colours of the Fort Henry Guard, instead of bearing battle Honours, commemorates the 33 British Regiments and 6 Canadian Regiments who Garrisoned Fort Henry.
The Officers and Soldiers of today's Fort Henry Guard have nothing superficially in common with the regular garrisons to have known the stone walls of Fort Henry. But there is common ground in pride, honour, tradition, and esprit de corps.
