I would agree with the diagonal yellow/blue version. This followed on from the diagonal designs used by the RRF, 1 QUEEN’S then 1 R IRISH.
1991-1993 was a complex period as the PWRR formed in September 1992 from 1 QUEEN’S, 2 QUEEN’S, 3 QUEEN’S AND 1 R HAMPSHIRE. As only 1 PWRR and 2 PWRR were required from ‘Options for Change’ so there was a series of re-shuffles and cross postings. The battalion at Howe Barracks, Canterbury supported 5 Airborne Brigade.
16 Air Assault Brigade formed up in 1999 from 5 Airborne and 24 Airportable Brigades.
