Volume VI weaves the regiments story from post-war Germany and Japan, into the 1950’s, covering the Malaya Emergency, a tour of the West Indies, serious unrest in Cyprus and garrison life for the thousands of young men who undertook national service. It enters the 1960’s changing into professional army, much smaller in size as the empire shrinks, and finishes just as the troubles in Northern Ireland are commencing
The Royal Welch Fusiliers Museum is an independent, registered charity, inside Caernarfon Castle. We rely on grant, donations, and visitor support to carry out our mission to preserve, promote, and educate on the history of the Regiment and remember those who served our country. Proceeds from shopping on our site, booking tours, and purchasing tickets to events go towards care for over 20,000 objects in the collection, providing educational opportunities for schools, groups and international audiences, maintaining the museum, and outreach programs to the community.
The mission of the Royal Welch Fusiliers Museum is to:
To maintain a leading international Regimental Museum which portrays the story of over 300 years of service by members of the Royal Welch Fusiliers through exhibitions, education, research, and programs.
To assist in keeping the modern Army and the successor Regiment relevant and to increase public awareness of them.
To collect objects and documents relating to the history of the Regiment.
To conserve and document all archives and documents we collect.
To make the archives and reserve collection accessible to researchers and for educational purposes.
As a nonprofit organization, shopping on our site is one way you can help support our mission.
