Photo GalleryTroopships
We don't give air travel a second thought these days, but up until the
1960s the main mode of transport for the British Army was the troopship.
Through the history of the regiment troopships have played their vital
part in getting the regiment to where it needed to be! This section
of the photo gallery looks at some of the ships used by the regiment.
