The Gallambrian Army is Gallambria's military land force. Is it part of the Gallambrian Armed Forces along with the Royal Gallambrian Navy and the Royal Gallambrian Air Force. While the Chief of the Defence Staff (CDS) commands the Gallambrian Armed Forces, the Army is commanded by the Chief of the General Staff (CGS). The CDS is therefore subordinate to the CDS, but is also directly responsible to the Secretary for Defence.
History
Current organisation
Colours, standards and guidons
Infantry, and some other combat units of the Gallambrian Army carry flags called the King's Colour and the Regimental Colour, known as "the Colours". Armoured units carry Standards and Guidons - flags smaller than colours and traditionally carried by Cavalry, Lancer, Light Horse, and Mounted Infantry units. Artillery units' guns are considered to be their Colours, and on parade are provided with the same respect. Non-combat units (combat service support corps) do not have Colours, as Colours are battle flags and so are only available to combat units. As a substitute, many have Standards or Banners. Units awards battle honours have them emblazoned on their Colours, Standards and Guidons. They are a link to the unit's past and a memorial to the fallen. Artillery do not have Battle Honours - their single Honour is "Ubique" which means "Everywhere" - although they can receive Honour Titles.
The Army is the guardian of the National Flag and as such, unlike the Royal Gallambrian Air Force, does not have a flag or Colours. The Army, instead, has a banner, known as the Army Banner. To commemorate the centenary of the Army, King Albert I, presented the Army with a new Banner, at a parade in front of the Gallambrian War Memorial, INSERT DATE .
The Army Banner bears the Gallambrian Coat of Arms on the obverse, with the dates "xxxx-xxxx" in gold in the upper hoist. The reverse bears the Army Badge. The banner is trimmed with gold fringe, has gold and crimson cords and tassels, and is mounted on a pike with the usual Gallambrian royal crest finial.
