. CHARITABLE ADVERTISING on Web Site
There are many worthwhile charitable causes in existence, but we can only accept sponsorship or fundraising efforts on Fusilier Association websites, that specifically support approved Fusilier charities.
This essentially means that it is acceptable to use these pages to seek sponsorship for The Fusiliers Aid Society (which includes Fallen Fusiliers), and The Fusilier Memorial fund only.
We now have our own dedicated justgiving site (http://www.justgiving.com/fusiliersaidsociety), which you can use to help raise money for your cause. If you let RHQ (Asst Regt Sec) know the specific cause you are raising money for, it will be directed to the correct fund.
Messages soliciting sponsorship for causes or charities other than the Fusilier ones mentioned above should not be placed on the message board and may be removed by the Webmaster.
Messages posted in the last 24 hrs. are in White.

THE BATTLE OF INKERMAN
The Battle of Inkerman took place on 5th November 1854 when the British Army found itself fighting Russia in the Crimean. The Regiment then known as the 20th Foot, later the Lancashire Fusiliers and now the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers, greatly distinguished itself at the battle. Heavily attacked by the Russians, the British troops stood firm. A thick mist and broken ground rendered control by officers impossible, and confused hand-to-hand fighting ensued, giving the action the name of The Soldiers Battle.
