One arm or other of this branch of the Service has, obviously, taken part in every campaign: a particularised list is therefore unnecessary. The guns are the "Colours" of the Artillery, and as such are entitled to all "parade honours." Formerly, regimental honours appear to have been worn by certain companies. Amongst such were "Niagara," "Leipsic," "Waterloo," and "The Dragon of China." UNIFORM.--Blue with Scarlet facings. Plume, White. REGIMENTAL BADGES.--The Royal Arms and Supporters, with a Cannon. The mottoes, "_Ubique_" (Everywhere) over, and "_Quo fas et glori ducunt_" ("Whither Right and Glory lead us") under the gun. NICKNAMES.--"The Gunners;" "The Four-wheeled Hussars" (of the Royal Horse Artillery). NOTES.--Trains of artillery seem first to have been raised in the time of Henry VIII.; and up to 1716 appear to have been disbanded after each campaign. In 1716 several companies received permanent corporate existence, since which the exigencies of modern warfare have led to an enormous increase in the number of batteries. But, from first to last the record of the Royal Artillery has been one of distinction, and it may fitly be said to share the honours of all other regiments. The Royal Irish Artillery were absorbed in 1801, and the East India Company's Artillery in 1858. BIBLIOGRAPHY.--_History of the Royal Regiment of Artillery._ Compiled from the original Records.
