The History of the 13th Infantry Regiment

---

The formation of the Regiment came from a group of friends that met in-game whilst playing together in one of the very first Allied squads: 'The 11th Hussars'.  And in early 2005, this small group of renegades branched out and formed a squad called "The Queens Royal Regiment" (QRR), with an ethos centred on a fun gaming environment for  members. Despite a successful period of international growth, the QRR was disbanded in 2006, with members enjoying tours of duty in the High Command, Training Platoon, and Game Managers.  

Then, in May 2007, and minutes before the birth of the Regiment; Dave, Frikshun, Macalex, Poker and Sixtoes (who were members of the QRR) found themselves under heavy fire whilst defending a field base just outside of Antwerp, and decided there and then to form the Regiment. The first hours of the 13th were highly successful; first fighting off the FB attack and then pivoting to take Tienen by capturing both spawnable depot and the army base.

The Regiment joined the Allied High Command OrBat in September 2007, and became the first squad affiliated to the newly formed 2 Paratroop Brigade, British Expeditionary Forces. This then was followed by a vote on where our home barracks would housed, and the majority called for Willemstad castle.

Regularly recognised for outstanding performance in battle, the Regiment has rightly become one of the most respected squads in the game and is genuinely feared by Axis forces.

A proud and pivotal part of the Allied War Machine, we aim to ensure strong and continuous representation within the Allied High Command. The honour of Bulldog reaching Commander-in-Chief, Allied Forces in 2011 is a significant milestone within the Regimental history with this honour replicated by Toxaway in late 2017.
