The Royal Welsh (R WELSH) (Welsh Y Cymry Brenhinol) was formed on St David's Day, 1 March 2006. It is one of the new large infantry regiments of the British Army.
The Royal Welsh consists of two regular battalions, plus a TA battalion, and was created through the merger of two single battalion regiments. The former regiments formed part of the battalion title (in brackets):
* 1st Battalion, The Royal Welsh (Royal Welch Fusiliers) (ex 1st Battalion, The Royal Welch Fusiliers) - a light infantry battalion based since August 2008 at Dale Barracks Chester. This follows a 2 year tour in Cyprus.
* 2nd Battalion, The Royal Welsh (Royal Regiment of Wales) (ex 1st Battalion, the Royal Regiment of Wales (24th/41st Foot)) - an armoured infantry battalion based at Tidworth.
* 3rd Battalion, The Royal Welsh (TA) (ex Royal Welsh Regiment) -TA Battalion which incorporates the Regimental Band.
The Regiment's cap badge is a representation of the Prince of Wales's feathers (formerly the cap badge of the Royal Regiment of Wales), while the hackle of the Royal Welch Fusiliers is worn by all NCOs and Other Ranks. HM The Queen is the new regiment's Colonel-in-Chief.
