Is the title Fusilier used in all Battalions or does the 2nd Battalion still use Private???

The 2nd Battalion still use Private.

Don’t know if I am right, but if they wear the hackle shouldn’t they be classed as Fusiliers, I thought the Hackle signified that you were a Fusilier (a title I was very proud to have)

1st Bn use Fusilier

very good point Benny, i think they should be fusiliers instead of private

**bennyball2** · 19-06-2007, 15:09

When privates are attached the 1st Battalion or Fusiliers are attached to the 2nd Battalion do they change their title and how do you tell them apart (quite confusing)?????

Well Bruv it gets even more confusing in 3 R Welsh, because I think that they still have Fusiliers and Privates.

Do the 1st Battalion(RWF) wear collar bombs and the 2nd battalion(RRW) wear collar dragons/dogs?

The Royal Welsh, what every Bn the come from should get these things sorted out, both bn 's have voted on certain things from each Bn to be used as a structure for the RW.
The agreed to wear the Hackle and the Flash as part of The Royal Welch Fusiliers Golden thread deal, to merge the Bn's.
And when you wear the hackle you are Fusiliers, So surly these need to be addressed by the other Bn's , If they don't sort this out and let this slide Can the 1st bn revert back to RWF Regimental Colours I think not rules are rules . personally if they let it slide whats next, They stop wearing the Hackle and Flash all together, No way you agreed the mergers Golden threads so wear them with pride i did.

Reference the Collar Dogs/Bombs, there is currently a new badge in the system, what the design is yet to be known, but its believed to have the Rampant Dragon on it. There are also new buttons for the No 2 Dress which has the Rampant Dragon on them. It is believed that the Cap Badge is also in design based on the old RRW badge with a scroll underneath with the words 'The Royal Welsh'. Hope this clears up some issues.
