Commissioned into the Staffordshire Regiment in 1976 and its last Colonel, he has had a lifetime’s interest in the history of the Regiment and has been a Trustee for 20 years. Having retired from the Army in 2011 he currently leads business development for a technology company in the Middle East.

Major Damian Bailey, Military Adviser.
Colonel Adrian Walton MBE TD DL, County & Technical Adviser.
Mr Andy Clyro TechEng (CEI), Collections Adviser.
