Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox military unit
The Bergslagen Artillery Regiment (Шаблон:Lang-sv), designation A 9, is a Swedish Army artillery unit which has operated in various forms from 1943 to 2000 and again from 4 December 2022 after the Swedish government decided to re-form the regiment in Kristinehamn as Bergslagen Artillery Regiment (A 9) with full operational capability reached by 2025.
History
The regiment was created as part of a build-up of the Swedish Army during World War II, so that Sweden's neutrality could be protected. In accordance with the Defence Act of 2000, the regiment and the other artillery regiments of the Swedish Army were amalgamated into the Artillery Regiment, in Kristinehamn, which took the A 9 designation from the Bergslagen Artillery Regiment.Шаблон:Fact
The regiment was re-inaugurated by His Royal Highness Prince Carl Philip, Duke of Värmland in Brogårdshallen in Kristinehamn on 4 December 2022. To the tunes of the Royal Swedish Army Band and Swedish flags as a background, A 9's standard from the Boden Artillery Regiment (A 8), was returned.[1]
Heraldry and traditions
Colours, standards and guidons
When the regiment was raised it was presented with a regimental standard by Crown Prince Gustaf Adolf on 27 April 1945. The regiment also took over some traditions from the Uppland Artillery Regiment (A 5), including the march.[2] The colour was taken over from the Position Artillery Regiment (Positionsartilleriregementet, A 9).[3]
