Was just surfing the weband came across this interesting site http://www.londonirishrifles.com/ Made me think how that with a re-organisation coming up nothing of our old battalions is being kept. The Brits have men who would die happily fighting for traditions and for their colours. In the London Irish they are only a company of a regiment yet retain a different head dress and separate identity with a very proud history (fighting in 2 World Wars). There doesnt seem to be very much unit pride in the Irish Army, specifically the Reserve and i think its a great shame because a soldier should be as proud as fook about his/her unit.
How many people here would die for their unit colours?
