Pilgrimages & Battlefield Tours

A number of pilgrimages are planned each year by the Association. These are open to all who are interested. Wives and family friends are welcome and we still get those who, although in their eighties, took part in the battles and campaigns of the Second World War and are able to tell us of their experiences.

Previous pilgrimages have included Albuhera in Spain where the Fusiliers were engaged in one of their most illustrious battles and Mons in Belgium.

Forthcoming Tours for 2009

It may be that readers of this website are not associated with the Fusiliers but had an ancestor who took part in the many battles in which the Fusiliers were engaged. They too are welcome on the tours.
