About the Light Infantry
The Light Infantry was an infantry regiment of the British Army known for its speed, flexibility, and ability to operate effectively in challenging conditions. With roots tracing back through earlier light infantry units, it carried forward traditions of rapid movement and tactical awareness.
Its soldiers were trained to operate with independence and initiative, often serving on the front line of British Army operations. The regiment later became part of The Rifles, continuing its legacy within modern British infantry.
This memorial pays tribute to those who served within the Light Infantry and honours their contribution to British military history.
