マルプラケの戦い
The Colonel of the regiment from 1742 to 1748 was Major-General Sir Ambrose Villiers, a nephew of the eighth Duke of Buckingham. He has been with the regiment since he was a young Ensign at the Battle of Malplaquet (1709). He commanded a company of the regiment (indicating at least Captain's rank) during the Jacobite rising of 1715.
