Motto's of
the Regiment
The Royal Regiment of Australian Artillery
was granted the two mottos of The Royal Regiment of Artillery in 1950 by
His Majesty King George VI: "UBIQUE" (Everywhere) and "QUO FAS ET GLORIA
DUCUNT" (Where Right and Glory Lead).
The original motto of the NSW Artillery was
"SEMPER FIDELIS" (Always Faithful). There is a line of thought that the
motto in fact was "SEMPER PARATUS" (Always Ready) but this appears to be
incorrect, even though 'A' Field Battery has adopted the latter.
After Federation the motto was changed to
"CONSENSU STABILES". There seems to be three opinions as to the
translation: Strong in Agreement, Firm and Ready and, the most accepted,
Firm and Steadfast.
The Gunner motto used by Tasmanian Garrison
Artillery was "PRO ARIS ET FOCIS" (For Fields and Hearths).
