The Honourable Artillery Company is a regiment of 400 men and women who voluntarily give up time from their civilian lives to train as soldiers in the Army's only Surveillance and Target Acquisition patrol regiment. Soldiers from the HAC frequently deploy on operations to Afghanistan in support of the Regular Army. The Regiment also has a unique ceremonial role providing Guards of Honour at the Guildhall and Gun Salutes at the Tower of London.
