Updates on 1 Royal Welsh

[BennytheBall]

Hi All,
Being a RWFCA Comrade, I was quite shamed to read Dai 29's comments on the forum about the 2nd Bn R Welsh Freedom of Ceredigion Parade and of the comrades' participation. Why was this not so for the 1st Bn R Welsh Freedom of Mold and Caernarfon Parades. As there was no or very few RWFCA participating in these parades.

I Know at the end of the day it has to be the wishes of the said Bn wether they would like comrades to join them on these parades and very rightly so, but was it over looked by the 1st Bn. I for one would have been proud to march with these fine men and women through our local town and not stand on the "side line" as we did in Mold on Friday last.

So before anyone get on their "soapbox" and preach to me about rules and regulations I'm only voicing my opinion, which is one of the reason this forum was set up for.

Yes Benny,

I agree with you, there was at least a "Platoon" of Royal Welch Comrades some like Rich 99, Frank Dolan and friends all the way from Wrexham, Billy Doutch from Holyhead and many more all dressed in blazers etc, well done lads, It was also nice to see so much white hackles,(Plumes) in the crowds.

As you have said Benny a shame but rules are rules.

Congratulations to the Regiment for recieving the Freedom of Caernarfon and the smart turnout and display.

Brian.
