Excerpt from Regimental Records of the Royal Welch Fusiliers (23rd Foot), Vol. 4: 1915 1918, Turkey Bulgaria Austria

With the publication of the present volume the work of enlarging and bringing up to date Regimental Records of the Royal Welch Fusiliers is completed.

The Committee avail themselves of this opportunity of tendering their sincere thanks to all those who, by various means and in different ways, have assisted in the compilation of the work. In particular they wish to place on record their high appreciation of the fine example of esprit de corps shown by Mr. Clancy (Bandmaster), the non-commissioned officers, and men of the Band of the 2nd Battalion, who, when stationed at home in 1923, gave their services free, during a tour through the Regimental District. The Committee feel sure that this spontaneous action on the part of the Band will be fully appreciated by all "Royal Welchmen." They further wish to convey their thanks to Lieutenant-Colonel C. C. Norman, C.M.G., D.S.O. (then commanding the 2nd Battalion), Lieutenant-Colonel J. R. Minshull-Ford, D.S.O., M.C. (Band President), and the officers at the various centres in North Wales where concerts were given, for their work in organising and arranging the entertainments, etc., which resulted in the tour proving so great a financial success.
