1st Flastone Brigade

The "Flastone Brigade" was raised in 1823 as a Brigade of over 20,000 Infantrymen/women. The 1st Flastone was founded in Amsterdam and Brussels and is made up mostly of Belgian, Dainish, Norwegian, and Dutch Volunteers. The brigade fought beside the 1st Irish in many battles and always helped relieve them from battle if the situation got hot. The Flastone Brigade is known as the "Mother Goose Brigade."

The regiment still serves along side the 1st Irish Guards today.
