EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: Woven Badge for Prince Alberts - A Tribute to the Somerset Light Infantry's Historic Connection This image showcases a beautifully preserved woven badge, a commemorative art piece that once adorned the uniforms of the Somerset Light Infantry soldiers during the Victorian era. The badge, intricately woven with rich colors and meticulous detail, pays homage to the regiment's association with Prince Albert, the consort of Queen Victoria and a prominent figure in British history. Prince Albert, who served as the Commander-in-Chief of the British Army from 1855 until his death in 1861, held a deep connection with the Somerset Light Infantry. The regiment, which was raised in 1755, was one of the oldest and most esteemed infantry units in the British Army. Prince Albert's influence extended beyond his military role, as he was also a patron of the arts, sciences, and various charitable organizations. The woven badge, featuring the Prince's monogram and the regimental crest, symbolizes the unity and loyalty of the soldiers who served under his command. The intricate design, which includes a crowned lion and the motto "Quo Fas et Gloria Ducunt," (Where Duty and Glory Lead), reflects the regiment's proud heritage and commitment to duty and honor. This piece of commemorative art not only showcases the intricate craftsmanship of the woven badge but also highlights the rich history of the Somerset Light Infantry and its connection to Prince Albert. The badge serves as a reminder of the regiment's storied past and the enduring legacy of the man who led and inspired its soldiers.
