Amalgamation with The Queen’s Royal Irish Hussars

Amalgamation

Due to post-Cold War restructuring of the Armed Forces under ‘Options for Change,’ it was announced in 1990 that ‘The Queen’s Own Hussars and The Queen’s Royal Irish Hussars would amalgamate to form ‘The Queen’s Royal Hussars.

On the 1st of September 1993, the new Regiment was formed at an amalgamation parade held at Wessex Barracks, Bad Fallingbostel.

We’d love to hear your stories, or experiences, about your time with the serving regiment, or one of our antecedent regiments.

Stories can relate to, but are not limited to:

* your experiences whilst serving;
* family life, home or overseas;
* places you enjoy visiting;
* or, photos of 5 objects that mean something to you and tell the story of who you are.

Your stories will be used as inspiration for future exhibitions, or even feature in the “articles” section.

You can send your entries in a range of formats such as photographs, artwork, drawings, in writing or via a short video.

To submit your stories, in the first instance, please phone the Curator on: 01926 402459.

Please note: By submitting any creative work or inspiration to this campaign, you are giving permission for your work to be used in future exhibitions and to be shared on the website.
