13th,
14th and 15th Company
This is the name by which the Guards Training Company at the
Infantry Training Centre, Catterick is known.
The adult training companies at the Guards Depot were once
formed Regimentally e.g. 14th Company - Grenadier Guards,
13th Company - Coldstream Guards, K Company Scots Guards etc
and each Company undertook the training of its recruits on
a Regimental basis within the common syllabus of the Guards
Depot training programme.
Upon the formation of the Army Training Regiment, Pirbright,
where Infantry soldiers from all Divisions are trained, there
is now only one Household Division adult training company,
Guards Company, and this is run on a multi Regimental basis.
The senior Grenadier Officer at the Army Training Regiment,
Pirbright is known as the Officer Commanding 14th Company
and he is responsible to Regimental Headquarters for all Grenadiers
(recruits and permanent staff) at the Army Training Regiment,
Pirbright.
All Grenadiers serving at the Army Training Regiment, Pirbright
are still known collectively as 14th Company, Grenadier Guards,
and have their own 14th Company Colour.
15th Company comprises the Regimental Band and all staff at
Regimental Headquarters. The Regimental Adjutant is the Company
Commander of 15th Company.
