Its judgement day. Did you know that the 24th Regiment of Foot at Rorke's Drift (and Isandlwana) were in fact "The 2nd Warwickshire Regiment" and not the South Wales Borderers. That name change come a couple of years after the Zulu Wars in 1881. The Regiment had moved to Brecon in Wales less than two years before the campaign and although there would have been a few new Welsh recruits in the ranks, the bulk of them came from the Midlands. More Peaky Blinders than Men of Harlech. As such, the winner is:
Well done sir. the trophy is on its way for you to polish along with your Knobkierie.

I don't mind having so many bean counters in the forces these days, it's their bean consumption that concerns me...
