King's Royal Rifle Corps
The King's Royal Rifle Corps (KRRC) was a distinguished infantry regiment of the British Army, formed in 1756. It was known for its expertise in rifle marksmanship and light infantry tactics. The KRRC played significant roles in various conflicts, including the Napoleonic Wars and both World Wars, earning a reputation for its skilled soldiers.
