The Princess of Wales Royal Regiment, known as the Tigers, is the county Infantry Regiment for Hampshire, Kent, Surrey and Sussex. It can trace its origins back to the 16th Century and has been involved in virtually every campaign of the British Army. The Regiment has two Regular battalions and is the only line infantry regiment to have its own Territorial battalion – 3 PWRR, which covers Kent, Surrey and Sussex.
Recruits into 3 PWRR are trained to use both small arms and larger weapons and be proficient in field craft. The battalion is prepared to take a lead role as part of the Civil Contingency Reaction Force (CCRF) if required. Many members of 3 PWRR have served very recently in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Training:
We train every Tuesday from 20.00-22.00 plus one or two weekends a month. Training oportunities includes Radio Operators, Medics, Chefs, and Drivers.
