Welcome Home!

From the MoD:

Soldiers of 1st The Queen’s Dragoon Guards marked their homecoming from Afghanistan with a parade through Swansea and received a visit from His Royal Highness Prince Charles. The Regiment received the Freedom of Swansea in 2009 on its 50th anniversary and returned to the city again for a third march in 10 years. Prince Charles, the Regiment's Colonel-in-Chief, took the salute from the parade before it stepped off at the newly refurbished Guildhall and marched through the city centre, led by The Band of the Royal Armoured Corps and Jackal armoured vehicles. In the picture, a Jackal 2 armoured vehicle leads the parade through Swansea. [Picture: Corporal Barry Lloyd, Crown Copyright]
