WHY ? : Our aim is to establish and maintain communication between ex-members of the Regiment, to promote and maintain our “esprit de corps” and all other aspects concerning Regimental honour, traditions, reunion or remembrance. “ A Regiment is only forgotten when the last man stops remembering ”
WHY BOTH REGIMENTS ? : Within the short history of the Queens Regiment (only26 years), many long serving members were “Orange Lillies” anyway or vice-versa. We hope it will be the 3rd Queensmen that will carry on our traditions when the last “Orange Lilly” passes.
