  1. Royal Irish Rifle Volunteers

    The Royal Irish Rifle Volunteers was a Volunteer Corps established in Dublin , Ireland in 1860, in response to the Volunteer Force movement in the United Kingdom. The establishment of the corps was largely instigated by Colonel Fitzstephen French , of Frenchpark, County Roscommon , an Member of Parliament MP for that county. Proponents of the force saw it as a way of uniting Irishmen of differing religious and political backgrounds in the common defence of their country. French attempted, but failed, to introduce a bill, the Volunteer Corps Ireland Bill, which would legitimise the setting up of a Volunteer Corps in the country. The following year the organisation was renamed the Loyal Association for Irish Rifle Volunteers. Background On 12 May 1859 the Secretary of State for War , Jonathan Peel had issued a circular letter to Lord lieutenant lieutenants of counties in England, Wales and Scotland, authorising the formation of volunteer rifle corps VRC, a.k.a. corps of rifle volunteers and rifle volunteer corps , and of artillery corps in defended coastal towns. ref War Office Circular, 12 May 1859, published in The Times , 13 May. ref Volunteer corps were to be raised under the provisions of the Volunteer Act 1804 44 Geo.3 c.54 ref cite book last Fortescue first John authorlink John Fortescue military historian title The county lieutenancies and the army, 1803 1814 url http www.archive.org stream countylieutenanc00fortiala page 134 mode 2up year 1909 publisher Macmillan Publishers MacMillan and Co. location London page 135 ref However, despite the intercession of some Irish ..., the London Irish Rifles Irish Rifle Volunteer Corps had been set up in London in 1859.

    Summary This image illustrates the badge of a Regiment or other unit of the British Army, which is probably subject to Crown Copyright. It is considered that the use of this image qualifies as fair use because 1. The image illustrates, and is representative of, the badge in question. 2. The badge uniquely identifies the Regiment or unit. In the British Army, unlike most other armies, each Regiment has its own individual badge. 3. The information contained in this image cannot adequately be conveyed by other means. 4. The image is of low resolution and is only useful for illustrative purposes. 5. A free image is not available because it is the design itself that is subject to copyright. 6. The badge is only of historical interest, since the Regiment or unit no longer exists owing to disbandment or amalgamation with other units.
