The Royal Military College (RMC), founded in 1801 and established in 1802 at Great Marlow and High Wycombe in Buckinghamshire, England, but moved in October 1812 to Sandhurst, Berkshire, was a British Army military academy for training infantry and cavalry officers of the British and Indian Armies.

The RMC was reorganised at the outbreak of the Second World War, but some of its units remained operational at Sandhurst and Aldershot.

[4] In 1801, Parliament voted a grant of £30,000 for his more ambitious proposals,[2] and in 1801 the school for staff officers at High Wycombe became the Senior Department of the new Military College.

[4] In 1802, having been appointed as the first Lieutenant Governor of the College, Le Marchant opened its Junior Department at a large house called Remnantz in West Street, Great Marlow,[5][6] to train gentleman cadets for the infantry and cavalry regiments of the British Army and for the presidency armies of British India.

[9] General Sir William Harcourt was appointed as the first Governor of the Royal Military College at Great Marlow[10] and continued in post until 1811.
