The Gloucestershire Regiment, commonly referred to as the Glosters, was a line infantry regiment of the British Army from 1881 until 1994. It traced its origins to Colonel Gibson's Regiment of Foot, which was raised in 1694 and later became the 28th (North Gloucestershire) Regiment of Foot. The regiment was formed by the merger of the 28th Regiment with the 61st (South Gloucestershire) Regiment of Foot. It inherited the unique distinction in the British Army of wearing a badge on the back of its headdress as well as the front, a tradition that originated with the 28th Regiment after it fought in two ranks back to back at the Battle of Alexandria in 1801. At its formation the regiment comprised two regular, two militia and two volunteer battalions, and saw its first action during the Second

  • 글로스터셔 연대(Gloucestershire Regiment)는 1881년부터 1994년까지 활동한 영국 육군의 보병연대로, 일반적으로 글로스터스(Glosters)라고 불린다. 제1차 세계 대전과 제2차 세계 대전, 한국 전쟁 등에 참전하였다. 임진강 전투에서 1대대가 압도적인 역경 속에서 3박 4일 동안 버텨내어, 한국 전쟁 당시 영연방 제29보병여단 소속으로서 명성을 얻었다 . 당시 주한 유엔군 사령관이 "현대 전쟁에서 가장 뛰어난 부대 용감성의 본보기"라고 묘사한 이 대대는 다른 유엔군이 포위되는 것을 막았고, "영광스러운 글로스터(The Glorious Glosters)"라는 별명을 얻게 되었다.

  • Le Gloucestershire Regiment (en français le régiment du comté de Gloucester), communément appelé le Glosters, était un régiment d'infanterie de l'Armée britannique de 1881 à 1994. Il trouve son origine dans le régiment du colonel Gibson qui a été constitué en 1694 et devint en 1751 le 28e régiment de ligne, le 28th (North Gloucestershire) Regiment of Foot. En 1881, le régiment fut formé par amalgame du 28e régiment et du 61e régiment de ligne, le 61st (South Gloucestershire) Regiment of Foot. Il hérite de l'unique distinction dans l'Armée britannique de porter un badge aussi bien au recto qu'au verso de sa coiffe, une tradition qui a pour origine la bataille d'Alexandrie en 1801 où ils combattirent sur deux rangs dos à dos.
