Probably! Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry have come
up before in the context of 'what units exist in the NAC'! 

(I like the new American NAC regt, the King's Own Memphis Rifles,
myself... dress uniform does NOT include blue suede shoes. They get
stepped on, see.)

It's usually abbreviated just as PPCLI, btw. Neater that way.

Oh, and thanks for the info about why the UK Army isn't all Royal,
everyone. Most interesting.
