== Chronology ==
*'''1777''' raised as the Marine Battalion
*'''1818''' became the 1st (Marine) Battalion, 11th Regiment of Bombay Native Infantry
*'''1824''' became the 21st (Marine) Regiment of Bombay Native Infantry
*'''1885''' became the 21st Regiment of Bombay Infantry (The Marine Battalion)
*'''1901''' became the 21st Bombay Infantry (The Marine Battalion)
*'''1903''' became '''121st Pioneers'''
*'''1922''' became 10th (Marine)/2nd Bombay Pioneers
*'''1929''' became The Corps of Bombay Pioneers
*'''1933''' disbanded
'''Note:''' there is record of the [[21st Regiment of Bombay Native Infantry]] raised in 1820 which mutinied in Karachi in 1857. It is said that the Marine Battalion took over the title after the Mutiny but this does not agree with the chronology above.
