Remembering Rifleman Andrew Fentiman, 7th Battalion The Rifles, killed by enemy small arms fire whilst on foot patrol near Sangin, Helmand Province, Afghanistan on the 15th November 2009 aged 23. Andrew was from Cambridge. #Afghanistan #TheRifles

Today on #VJDay our family remember relatives captured and held at the hands of the Japanese. Pte Jack Cunnington (RAMC), and Pte Herbert Sharp (5th Suffolks) both fortunately returned but with the memories of captivity haunting them throughout their later life. #VJDay80

Remember today, all those men of 4th & 5th Bn’s of the Suffolk Regiment who endured captivity at the hands of the Japanese, especially all those who sadly never made it home. The casualty statistics are both staggering and sobering, showing the brutality of their captors…(1/3)

Wishing ourselves a Happy Birthday! The Rifles was formed in 2007 when four famous regiments came together to create the largest infantry regiment in the British Army, which would quickly become battle-hardened on operations across Iraq, Afghanistan and beyond.

Seasons greetings, and cheers to all 🍻 @6_airborne @SeaSpitfires @Barber1944 @almurray @James1940 @April_1970s @kejamieson_ @MikeHistorian @GPRSociety @Gliderpilot44 @HistoryPegg

Well done @maisiee26 ! 🥇

Getting it open to the public again would be brilliant. Perhaps @James1940 and @almurray could take up the flame.
