After the siege and storming of Copenhagen, on 16 October 1659, King Frederick III honored the regiment with the name "Queen's Life Regiment" for the regiment's courage.
The regiment was in foreign war service (mostly British) around 1700. It participated in the Great Nordic War and in the 1864 campaign, when it participated with particular energy and contempt for death in the defense of Dybøl on 18 April 1864. It was almost wiped out.[1]
