21eme Regiment de Ligne
   
 
  Wellington Park 2008
2nd 95th Rifles Warning Order
for
Wellington Country Park
Hampshire
12-13 April 2008

This year should be an exciting event as not only will we be joined by our friends of
the Coldstream Guards, 33rd Regt of Ft and the 68th Regt of Ft, as part of the Allied
Army but this year we have a number of French units to join in the fun. The 21eme,
45 eme and the 85eme will form the French army. This is our 1st organised battle
weekend of 2008. We are most fortunate to be the guests of the current Duke of
Wellington. This weekend will be very busy for everyone, there will be guards
provided by all units to the main entrance of the site and foot patrols to be carried
out of the site also, this is a request from Wellington Park staff to ensure the public
know where we are in the park.
We are hoping to have some cavalry on the Sunday to take part in the displays but
probably not participate in the battle.

Venue: Wellington Country Park, Hampshire
