The first battle honour displayed on the colours in the modern manner was awarded in 1784 when four infantry regiments that took part in the defence of Gibraltar of 1779–83 were ordered to display the word "Gibraltar" on a scroll on their Second (now Regimental) Colour. Later, a badge of the Castle and Key was added, with a scroll carrying the motto "Montis Insignia Calpe" below it, and the word "Gibraltar" was changed to "Gibraltar 1779–83". Although this award was made promptly after the event, this is not always the case: the oldest battle honours, "Tangier 1662–1680" and "Tangier 1680", were awarded in 1909, over 220 years after the temporary but tumultuous occupation of that port.
