By the way, I have a translation problem: what is the most appropriate English term equivalent to "Garde du Corps" when a regiment is concerned?
Maybe "Life Guards" is more appropriate than "Body Guards" ? Pity for the poor alien  Jean |

In France Garde du Corp du Roi, in Spain it was Guardia del Cuerpo del Rey, in English the exact translation would have been "Guard of the King's Body"., ie. the King's Body Guard
