The Royal Regiment of Fusiliers parades through Warwick town centre
On Friday, November 27, at 11.30am, 2nd Battalion The Royal Regiment of Fusiliers paraded through Warwick town centre to mark their arrival home from Iraq and Afghanistan. This was an extra special homecoming for the Fusiliers, who have a special link with Warwick as the The Royal Warwickshire Fusiliers (The 6th of Foot) was one of four regiments to make up the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers. The regiment has the freedom of the town and this enables them to march with drums beating, colours flying and bayonets fixed. The parade ended at St John's Museum where the regiment's museum is housed (
The parade involved 200 troops, including a colour party, Corps of Drums and Minden Band.
The route took Northgate Street, Church Street, High Street, Swan Street and Market Place, with a collective salute at Shire Hall from Warwickshire County Council Chairman Cllr Peter Barnes, Warwick District Council Chairman Cllr Norman Pratt, the Lord Lieutenant of Warwickshire Martin Dunne, High Sheriff of Warwickshire the Lady Kilmaine, Colonel of the Regiment Brigadier TJ Minter OBE DL, and Warwick Town Mayor Cllr Peggy Bennett, before continuing down Jury Street, Smith Street and to St John's Museum.

Warwick
Warwick lies upon the River Avon. The town is famous for Warwick castle, the construction of which began in 1068. The town is also known for 'Warwick Racecourse' near the westgate of the medieval town. In 1050 the Danes (Vikings) invaded Mercia and burned down much of Warwick including the nunnery. Thomas Oken whose house is seen in my video made a considerable fortune and devoted his talents to the service of his town and his fellow citizens.

Protesters fight to save 2nd Fusiliers 18.10.12
Around 400 former Fusiliers have marched through Whitehall in protest at defence cuts.
They are angry that the 2nd Battalion the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers is being scrapped.
The protesters are campaigning for the Government to reverse its decision.
The 2nd Battalion is due to amalgamate with the 1st Battalion in 2014 as part of the Army 2020 restructuring. Another four infantry Battalions are also being cut.
They claim axing the 2nd Battalion is a political fix designed to save two poorly recruited Scottish Battalions ahead of a referendum vote.
The protest coincided with a backbench motion tabled by former Fusilier officer and now MP John Baron, who also presented a petition to Downing Street.
It saw the Government suffer a defeat as it lost by 57 votes to 3, but because it was a backbench business debate the vote is not binding on the government.
John Baron MP said: These Army cuts are a big mistake but if there are to be cuts then military logic should prevail.
Government interference to save poorly recruited Scottish battalions smacks of a political fix in the lead-up to the Scottish referendum.
