only fitting that such an 'Elite' Regiment have a website that is
'Second to None', dedicated to everything Coldstream . . . . and

of one the most respected military organisations in the world is
worth it. Many try, many fail, have you got what it takes?

In a Word NO!
ShinyCapstar was first
created in June 2001, with the main objective to have a 'user
friendly' portal of Information to aid anyone interested in the
Coldstream Guards (past, present & future) with help or advice when
required. The site also functions (where possible) as a way of
communication to relay messages to family and friends through the
MESSAGE BOARD or through
SAVE A STAMP (click the links for more
information). You can also take advantage of the
CONTACT WAIT-OUT database, where
lost friends and colleagues can get in touch.
Also, another note worth mentioning is although this site is
extremely popular, you must note that it is an UNOFFICIAL WEBSITE.
The official site for the Coldstream Guards can be found by clicking
CLICKING HERE. Any images held on this web-site have been provided
by kind permission from Coldstream Guards Regimental Headquarters,
