South Africa has a number of Traditional Regiments. These are mostly South African Army Reserve Force (formerly Citizen Force) regiments who have long histories of serving the ''Government of the day''. Generally, the traditional regiments are those who were formed before the establishment of South Africa as a unified country, although there are a few which are much more recent. The traditional regiments have a number of elements which are different from the other units, such as certain peculiarities of dress. The most noticeable of these is the wearing of the Sam Browne belt and Sword by officers. ==Western Cape== The Traditional Cape Regiments are the five traditional South African Army Reserve Force (formerly Citizen Force) regiments of Cape Town, South Africa which are, in order of precedence: * Cape Field Artillery (1857- ) * Cape Garrison Artillery (1942- ) * Cape Town Rifles (Dukes) (1855- ) * Cape Town Highlanders (1885- ) * Regiment Westelike Provinsie (1934- ) Brief profiles, in chronological order - see also individual articles on the regiments. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Traditional South African Regiments」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
