The Staffordshire Regiment was a line infantry regiment of the British Army, formed in 1881. It originated from the amalgamation of several older regiments, including the North Staffordshire Regiment and the South Staffordshire Regiment. The regiment served in various conflicts, including both World Wars, and was known for its distinctive cap badge featuring a Staffordshire knot. In 2007, the Staffordshire Regiment was merged into the Mercian Regiment as part of a restructuring of the British Army. The regiment's history is marked by bravery and dedication, with many soldiers receiving honors for their service. Its legacy continues through the Mercian Regiment and various memorials.
