Description
By Michael Glover and Lt. Gen Jonathon Riley
In this new edition, based on the late Michael Glover’s work, the story of the Regiment is brought up to March 2006 when the Royal Welch Fusiliers ceased to exist as an independent entity. Lieutenant General J P Riley has edited the work and added a new chapter covering the end of the Cold War to the amalgamation in 2006. This turbulent period includes the Regiment’s service in the Balkans and Iraq. Annexes have been revised and expanded, and the text is enhanced by photographs, many in colour, line drawings, maps and sketches by Kyffin Williams.
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.
