From the siege guns of the Napoleonic Wars to the field artillery of the Western Front, from the anti-aircraft batteries of the Blitz to the precision guided munitions of modern operations, the Royal Artillery has been at the heart of British firepower for over three centuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Gunners hold a unique distinction in the British Army: they carry no Colours. Their motto — \u003cem\u003eUbique\u003c\/em\u003e, Everywhere — is their explanation. The Royal Artillery has served in so many campaigns, on so many fronts, that no single Colour could carry the honour. Their guns are their Colours, and they have never been lost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn the Second World War, Royal Artillery regiments served in every theatre — from the Western Desert, where the 25-pounder field gun became the backbone of British firepower, to the anti-aircraft batteries that defended British cities during the Blitz. In Korea, the Falklands, the Gulf, Iraq, and Afghanistan, the Gunners have been present on every operation the British Army has undertaken. \u003cem\u003eUbique\u003c\/em\u003e is not a boast. It is a statement of fact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eAbout the Tie\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandcrafted by \u003cstrong\u003eBenson \u0026amp; Clegg\u003c\/strong\u003e, London's foremost makers of regimental and club neckwear since 1937, this three-fold silk tie is constructed without an interlining — allowing the silk to drape and knot with exceptional weight and fluidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% silk reppe weave, three-fold construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlade width approx. 9.0cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in England\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry clean only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePresented in a Benson \u0026amp; Clegg gift box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"FatChimp \u0026 Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57055333286266,"sku":"TIE-MIL2-ROYART","price":85.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0855\/4684\/files\/TIE-199-BensonAndCleggRoyalArtillerySilkTie.jpg?v=1783621974","url":"https:\/\/www.fatchimp.co.uk\/products\/royal-artillery-three-fold-silk-tie","provider":"Fat Chimp Forces Wear \u0026 Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
