Regimental Museums

Regimental Museums is an itinerary in United Kingdom.

Understand

In the infantry a regiment is set of several battalions with the same name. In the British Army many regiments go back to 1666. It is where the loyalty of the soldier lays. When asked what unit a soldier belongs to, he will always offer the name of his regiment (not his platoon, company or battalion) first. This loyalty continues into him supporting a Regimental Museum.
