The Gloucestershire Regiment museum (The
Soldiers of Gloucestershire)
The Royal Gloucestershire,
Berkshire and Wiltshire Regiment has two Museums. Because of the regimental
merger of 1994 the title sometimes confuses researchers and family members
when trying to obtain information from a museum bearing the 'Gloster' name.
If you require any information about the Gloucestershire Regiment up to
1994, then follow this link or visit the museum at Custom House, the docks,
Gloucester. |

British Battles - Website
The Regiment today wears
the 'Brandywine flash' behind the cap badge, having inherited it from the
Royal Berkshires followed by DERR. The action leading to the wearing of this
insignia actually came as a result of the actions of the 49th Light Company
at the battle of Paoli at about the same time, but it has always been known
as 'The Brandywine flash' Go to this site for fuller information and other
battles of the same period. |
