"The Royal Guernsey Light Infantry was a regiment in the British Army that was formed from the Royal Guernsey Militia in 1916 to serve in World War I. They fought as part of the British 29th Division. Of the 2,280 Guernseymen who fought on the western front with the RGLI, 327 died and 667 were wounded.
The regimental motto, Diex Aix, derives from the battle cry used by the Normans at the Battle of Hastings.
The Regiment lives on in the Guernsey Army Cadet Force (Det.) Light Infantry, who, although they do not wear the RGLI Cap Badge, still keep alive the history of the Regiment within the Detachment."
