TUDOR ROSE

THE TUDOR ROSE represents a unified ENGLAND. Between 1455 and 1485, ENGLAND was torn apart by the Wars of the Roses, a struggle caused by the dynastic ambitions of the Houses of Lancaster and York (whose devices were the red and white rose respectively), both of which wished to place their claimant on the ENGLISH throne. When the Lancastrian Henry Tudor finally came to the throne in 1485 as Henry VII (The First Tudor King), the red and white roses were combined to form a single red-and-white rose---THE TUDOR ROSE.

BEEFEATERS

BEEFEATERS symbolize England's proud historical tradition. More properly called the Yeomen of the Guard, their popular name is derived from the French boufitiers --- guardians of the King's buffet. Constituted in 1485 by Henry VII (Lancastrian) Tudor to serve as the sovereign's bodyguard, the corps is England's oldest military formation. Today its members are most often seen on state occasions and on duty as warders at the Tower of London. The yeomen are drawn from the ranks of retired soldiers, and their idiosyncratic military hierarchy ranges form their captain (usually a peer), to a lieutenant and ensign, through the "clerk of the cheque," and "exons," down to messengers, sergeants major, yeoman bedgoers and bedhangers, and privates. Their colorful formal uniforms date from the fifteenth century and consist of red tunics faced with puple stripes and gold lace, red knee-breeches and stockings, a ruff and plumed hat. On less formal occasions they dispense with the ruff and substitute a derby (bowler) hat.
