Changes

Some regiments published a regular regimental journal which can be a valuable source of information. Examples are ''St George’s Gazette'', journal of the Northumberland Fusiliers,(previously [[5th Regiment of Foot]]) published from 1883 to 1968, and ''The Highland Light Infantry Chronicle'', journal of the Highland Light Infantry (previously [[71st Regiment of Foot]]), published quarterly from 1893 to 1958. Whether a journal existed may be included in the regimental information available on the website Regiments.org (refer below). This [http://books.google.com.au/books?id=sNO72EFncc8C&pg=PA365 link] also lists the titles of some regimental journals.<ref>[http://books.google.com.au/books?id=sNO72EFncc8C&pg=PA365 ''Military Identities: the Regimental System, the British Army, and the British People, c.1870-2000''], page 365 by David French 2005 Google Books</ref> The [[British Library]] and [[National Army Museum]] are possible sources of these journals, together with Regimental Museums and regional libraries, if the regiment had a strong regional connection. A broken range of editions of [[The Rifle Brigade| ''The Rifle Brigade Chronicle'']] for the years 1890 to 1905 is available online. A few editions of the ''Highland Light Infantry Chronicle'' are also available online, however these are accessible in limited countries only.
