Hey everyone. Welcome to The Royal Newfoundland Regiment. Here's some history on it.

A Newfoundland regiment was first founded, to serve in the British Army, in 1795. It was disbanded and refounded several times under different names, including His Majesty's Royal Newfoundland Regiment of Foot, The Royal Newfoundland Veterans Companies and, The Royal Newfoundland Companies. The regiment dates its origin to 1795, when Major Thomas Skinner of the Royal Engineers stationed in St. John's at Fort Townshend, was ordered to raise a regiment.

The regiment was significantly involved in the War of 1812. As it was called then, The Royal Newfoundland Regiment of Fencible Infantry 1803-1816.
