2 Royal Welsh

Time for reflection during operations

The 2nd Battalion The Royal Welsh is based at Lucknow Barracks in Tidworth, Wiltshire and is an armoured infantry battalion.

It's equipped with the Warrior Armoured Fighting Vehicle, enabling it to move swiftly around the battlefield delivering troops to the heart of the battle.

The battalion returned from a successful tour in Iraq in December 2007 and has since been providing armoured support to operations in Afghanistan as well as conducting exercises at home and in Canada.
