A warm welcome from the Committee and the Members of the Winchester and District Branch of the Royal Green Jackets Regimental Association on entering and exploring this site.

Our aims are firstly for branch members, some who first met as serving Riflemen in a Green Jacket battalion over fifty years ago, to keep in touch, exchange views on all topics and, also bridge the mileage gap that has built up between us all. This is best illustrated in The History.

Secondly to encourage Green Jackets who have yet to join, to make the effort to get in touch with chums of yesteryear and to rekindle the spirit and resolve that was commonplace when serving.

Thirdly for the interested viewer, to find out how the branch works in its support for individuals and this great Regiment the Royal Green Jackets whose antecedent Regiments, the 43rd, the 52nd, the 60th, and the 95th held reputations that were second to none. As is our living Regiment The Rifles who were formed on 1st February 2007 with the amalgamation of the Royal Green Jackets, The Light Infantry, the Devoln and Dorsets Light Infantry and the Royal Gloucestershire, Berkshire and Wiltshire Regiment..
