Welch Regiment
The Welch Regiment (or "The Welch") was a British army regiment. It was formed as part of the wholesale Cardwell Army reforms in 1881 as The Welsh Regiment (41st Foot in British infantry seniority), recruited generally from South West Wales, and remained so until it was amalgamated with the South Wales Borderers (24th Foot) into the Royal Regiment of Wales in 1969.
