- Queen Victoria recorded the occasion in a long entry taking up three pages in her Journal on 28 September, 1837. Her dark blue habit with red collar and cuffs is the Windsor Uniform, as worn by the Gentlemen of the Household. With it she wore a military cap or shako, and the Order of the Garter. Her horse was ‘Leopold’, fully caparisoned for a military review. Her entourage, including Lord Hill, Lord Alfred Paget, Prince Lichtenstein, Baron Reischach, Lord Palmerston etc., wore either Windsor uniform or their regimentals. The review, in the Home Park at Windsor, lasted from 2pm until half-past-four
