CHANGE OF TITLE
ROYAL IRISH RANGERS TO 2ND BATTALION THE ROYAL IRISH REGIMENT
TODAY THE SUCCESFUL REORGANISATION OF THE ROYAL IRISH REGIMENT IS
COMPLETED BY THE RETITLING OF THE ROYAL IRISH RANGERS AS THE SECOND
BATTALION OF THE ROYAL IRISH REGIMENT.
THE RANGERS HAVE OVER RECENT YEARS GIVEN CONSISTENT SUPPORT TO THE
REGULAR ARMY AND THE FIRST BATTALION AS IT HAS DEPLOYED ON OPERATIONS
AROUND THE WORLD. THIS HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL PAIRING WILL CONTINUE AND
SETS A MODEL OF EXCELLENCE WHICH OTHERS WILL STRIVE TO EMULATE IN THE
YEARS AHEAD.
THE ROYAL IRISH RANGERS WERE FORMED ON 1ST JULY 1968. THEIR NAME WILL
BE CARRIED FORWARD IN THE FULL TITLE OF THE ROYAL IRISH REGIMENT ALONG
WITH THOSE OTHER REGIMENTS WHO HAVE CREATED OUR TRADITIONS AND PASSED
UNFORGOTTEN INTO HISTORY. THOSE WHO SERVED IN THE VARIOUS BATTALIONS
OF THE ROYAL IRISH REGIMENT, BOTH REGULAR AND TERRITORIAL, HAVE MUCH
OF WHICH TO BE PROUD.
THOSE WHO FOLLOW IN THEIR FOOTSTEPS WILL UPHOLD THEIR PROFESSIONALISM,
THEIR DEDICATION AND THEIR ENDURING SERVICE.

I have just been scrolling through the "guestbook" and am
heartened to read the many tributes to Mick Fahn and Tommy Boyd.,
posted by those I knew way back in the 60's & 70's.
Indeed two good men in the truist sense.
