Regimental Archive
The Regimental Archive of the
Royal Monmouthshire Royal Engineers (Militia):
"The Castle and Regimental Museum, Monmouth, holds the records of the Royal Monmouthshire Royal Engineers (Militia). The Regiment was formed in the sixteenth century and the records cover the period 1786 to 1976.
The Regiment was originally a local militia and is now part of the Territorial Army. Throughout its long history, it has always been a reserve force, composed of men with ordinary occupations who were brought together at intervals for training, and were called upon for active service at times of need. It is the senior regiment in the reserve Army."

Now an engineer regiment, it is the senior unit of the reserve army. Throughout its long and unbroken history, it has always been a reserve force, composed of men with ordinary occupations who were brought together at intervals for training, and were called upon for active service at times of need."
