Surrey has a strong and long standing military history. The Queen's Royal Surrey Regiment traces its origins back to 1661. The Royal Military College began in 1800 as a school for staff officers which later became the Staff College, Camberley. A Junior Department was formed in 1802, to train gentlemen cadets as officers of the Line. A new college was built at Sandhurst, into which the cadets moved in 1812.
