The Royal Ulster Rifles was an Irish infantry regiment of the British Army.
In 1921, following the proclamation of the Irish Free State, the Royal Irish Rifles was renamed the Royal Ulster Rifles, with the regimental district of Louth ceded to the newly independent state.
In 1968, under reforms of the army, the Royal Ulster Rifles was amalgamated with The Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers and The Royal Irish Fusiliers to form The Royal Irish Rangers (27th (Inniskilling), 83rd and 87th).
History of The Royal Irish Rangers The Formation of the Regiment (3141 words)
Royal lnniskilling Fusiliers was one of six battalions raised as a result of the Cold War in 1948 but was again disbanded in 1955.
Royal approval was obtained in 1968 to the appointment of two Deputy Colonels to assist the Colonel of The Regiment in his duties and this arrangement has continued ever since.
The Royal Irish Rangers have indeed established a reputation throughout the Army for professionalism, courage, determination and a fierce pride in all that we have done.
