Re: [DS and SG] Regiments of the Crown

	I think that all the regiments would be assigned local names
where they
are not given titles like the Prince of Wales' own Texans or whatever.
The
Canadians still do this I think, anyone? The Brits have always been
strong
on regimental history so they would keep old numbers and titles where
possible. Obviously those units that opposed the British take over won't
be
reformed under the NAC.
