此列表列出曾在战斗中被夺的英国军旗。自1747年改革以来,英国每个步兵团携带两面仪仗旗以在战场上标识身份:一面为国王旗,采用英国国旗图案;另一面为团旗,颜色与该团的制服饰边相同。旗帜被视为团的护身符,若被敌方夺取,则被认为是团的荣誉污点。英军为防止旗帜被夺,常在战场上派遣年轻军官与资深士官组成的旗卫队保护旗帜。然而19世纪开始,团旗卫队在战场上日益脆弱,部分团选择不在战场上携带旗帜。1879年,英军在伊散德尔瓦纳战役中丢失两面旗帜,引发国会争论是否应继续携旗参战。1881年莱恩斯纳战役中,英军第58步兵团旗卫队死伤惨重,当局遂禁止战斗中携带旗帜,并持续至今。
背景
[编辑]
英国陆军步兵团的旗帜用以标识部队身份,并作为士兵集结的标志。旗帜为早期战争时战场难辨敌友而生之产物,后来逐渐成为团的象征,承载其传统与荣誉;夺取敌方旗帜被视为重大成就,而己方旗帜被敌夺取或“丢失”则被认为是耻辱[1][2]。战斗中,旗帜由团中最年轻、军阶最低的少尉携带,位于部队前排中央[3][4]。其因为非常重要与显眼面临危险,会由数名持长矛的资深士官组成旗卫队,以保护旗帜与协助少尉携带沉重的旗帜[5]。这些士官自1813年起,被授予“旗卫士官”新军阶,以表彰其荣誉[3]。若旗卫队成员伤亡,其他军官、士官乃至普通士兵将视需要接替其位[3][6]。1815年滑铁卢战役中,英军第40步兵团旗卫队有14名士官阵亡或负伤;1854年阿尔马河战役中,第21步兵团旗卫队损失3名军官与17名士官[6]。
1745年,英国爆发詹姆斯党叛乱,促使英王乔治二世推行军队改革,统一制服、训练与战术。他重视确保士兵忠于王室,而非团的团长(当时团以团长姓名命名,而非序号),遂创立旗帜制度[7]。此前步兵团旗帜数量与设计依团长喜好而异,多带有团长个人纹章,而非国家或王室标志[8]。乔治的改革规定每团配备两面旗帜:一面“国王旗”(女王在位时称“女王旗”),以国旗为基础;一面“第二旗”(后称“团旗”),底色与团制服饰边同色,并标注新编团号[8]。步兵旗帜通常由英国国教牧师祝圣,至1825年,正式颁旗时祝圣已成惯例[9]。
保卫旗帜之措施
[编辑]
步兵团通常极力避免团旗落入敌手。英军在萨拉托加投降时,英军第9步兵团的团长将军旗私自带回英国,被美国视为违反投降条款[10]。1880年,布龙克霍斯茨普雷战役后,英军第94步兵团的军旗被藏于一名伤兵妻子床下,随救护车送回英军阵地,得以保全[11]。而在其他情况中,英军会故意销毁军旗以防被俘,如1811年丰特斯-德奥尼奥罗战役中,英军第51步兵团团长因担心团旗被俘而焚毁旗帜;还有多支步兵团在海上运输时因担心可能被俘,将军旗加重后投入海中[12][13]。此外,英军在某些投降谈判中被允许保留旗帜,如1782年梅诺卡岛投降后,英军第4、第23、第24及第34步兵团得以保留旗帜[10]。然而旗帜虽备受重视,但有时也会在非战斗场合丢失。英军第71步兵团在半岛战争期间将军旗留在英国,回国后却遍寻不获;19世纪,一支轻步兵团在邮寄途中遗失一面军旗[14] 。
轻步兵团以散兵阵形作战,其团旗极易遭受攻击,导致早在1808年许多此类团便不再于战场携带团旗[14]。英军军官在战斗中若团旗有被敌夺之虞或引来过多敌火,会将其移至后方[12]。而有时当指挥官认为团旗妨碍行动时,会下令将其留置,例如詹姆斯·阿伯克龙比将军在1758年的钟琴堡战役就做出此决定[15]。至1860年代,多数执行现役任务的步兵团选择将团旗留置驻地以保安全[16]。
After the loss of the colours of the 24th (The 2nd Warwickshire) Regiment of Foot at the 1879 Battle of Isandlwana there were debates in parliament as to whether colours should continue to be carried in the field. These were renewed after the heavy casualties suffered by the colour party of the 58th (Rutlandshire) Regiment of Foot at the 28 January 1881 Battle of Laing's Nek; British General Garnet Wolseley remarked that after this engagement any colonel that ordered the colours to be carried into action should be tried for the murders of the men lost carrying them.[11] The action led to the Secretary of State for War Hugh Childers issuing instructions on 29 July that colours were no longer to be taken into the field.[17] This was reinforced by a 2 March 1882 order from the Commander-in-Chief of the Forces, the Duke of Cambridge, that regiments posted on active service leave their colours behind.[16] The colours of the 58th at Laing's Nek became the last to be carried into battle and those of the 1st battalion of the South Staffordshire Regiment the last to be taken on active service when they were at Alexandria in 1882.[17]
无军旗之部队
[编辑]唯有英国步兵团的旗帜被称为军旗(colours),骑兵团的旗帜则仅为普通旗帜(standards),不仅未经祝圣,且未如步兵团旗般受到高度尊崇[18]。自19世纪初起,骑兵旗帜在战场上使用日益罕见,例如半岛战争期间,仅极少数旗帜被携带。轻龙骑兵(包括骠骑兵与枪骑兵的轻骑兵类型)自1834年起停止携带任何旗帜,因其多以散兵阵形作战,无法保护旗帜[19]。
步兵团若被指定为来福枪步兵团,因需以散兵阵形作战,则不使用团旗,例如英军第95步兵团、国王皇家步枪团及其现代后继者来福枪步兵团[20]。海军陆战队(自1802年起称皇家海军陆战队)以连为单位组织,仅其行政单位领有团旗,且不于战场携带[21]。英国皇家炮兵团不使用团旗,其火炮视同军旗[22]。

Cumberland was unable to button his coat over the queen's colour and handed it to Colour-Sergeant Carey who hid it under his sheepskin coat. Carey was killed and the colour lost, but Souter was captured by the Afghans who thought him worthy of ransom after mistaking the bright yellow colour for expensive clothing. Souter brought the regimental colour back with him when he was released some months later. | [41][42][43] |
