The Duke of Lancaster's Regiment

LionsofEngland is the Youtube Channel of the Duke of Lancaster's Regiment - the infantry regiment of the North West of England.

The Duke of Lancaster's Regiment consists of two Regular Army Battalions (1 LANCS and 2 LANCS) and one Army Reserve Battalion (4 LANCS).

The regiment was formed on 1st July 2006, by the amalgamation of The King's Own Royal Border Regiment, The King's Regiment, and The Queen's Lancashire Regiment.

Private soldiers inherited the rank of Kingsman from The King's Regiment. The cap badge is a Lancaster rose in a Fontenoy laurel surmounted by a crown. At the base is a scroll with the motto Nec Aspera Terrent (Difficulties be Damned). The regiment's Colonel-in-Chief is HM The Queen, who concurrently holds the title Duke of Lancaster.

We recruit soldiers from the North West, but also nationwide and the Commonwealth. We have a very strong history and proud tradition dating back to 1680 (4th of Foot).

We have earned the nickname 'Lions of England'.
