The Brigade of Guards is the elite formation of the British Armies in America. Officers can request a transfer to the guards when they have reached the rank of captain and have been declared eligible by the Commander-in-Chief, British Armies in America, on recommendation of their corps commander. Criteria for being eligible are either an excellent battlefield record, or major contributions to the club life.
