The story of the British Army's Household Division from 1969 to 2023. It is the biography of a family of three generations of soldiers who have served Crown and Country during a period of significant social and geostrategic change.
The story of the British Army’s Household Division from 1969 to 2023 is one of three generations of soldiers who have served Crown and Country during a period of significant social and geostrategic change. It is the story of a family of seven regiments that symbolise the Union of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, Septem juncta in uno: The Life Guards, The Blues and Royals, Grenadier, Coldstream, Scots, Irish and Welsh Guards. The Guards established an ascendancy in the Peninsular War and at the Battle of Waterloo, and have never truly faltered since. They have managed this by changing when change was needed.
Over the last 50 years, the Household Division has been at the centre of almost every major operation conducted by the British Army: Northern Ireland, the Falklands, the Balkans, Iraq and Afghanistan. At the same time, the Household Division is a national institution, admired by the public through its mastery of ceremonial and pageantry, and the magnificent hour that is Trooping the Colour.
The professionalism and self-discipline of the individual Guardsmen and Troopers are what ensures both their exemplary performance on operations and their high standards of state ceremonial and public duties. Those Must Be The Guards illustrates both roles through the experiences of those who have served in the Household Division over the past half-century.

批評家のレビュー
This absorbing book celebrating a unique military asset commands close attention.
This book is the perfect present for the Guardsman in your life.
Well illustrated and packed full of stories, told in the words of those who have served, Those Must be The Guards is highly recommended.
It is a sincere contemporary review of service over 50 years by the seven regiments of the Household Division. Whilst a colleague tells me every aspiring officer should read Those Must Be The Guards, it's also a faithful record that is of interest to a far wider audience. (David Webb-Carter)
This handsome volume is testament to the Division’s vast contribution to the Army since 1969, the industry of the authors in writing it and the foresight of Headquarters Household Division in commissioning it. The authors describe the quick march of the Coldstream Guards as ‘perfect in time and tempo,’ and the same applies to their book.
This work serves as an introduction to the military prowess of these fine regiments.
