EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the vibrant streets of Cardiff, Wales in May 1968. The band and drums of the esteemed Royal Welsh Fusiliers proudly march past the distinguished figure of Lord Mayor Ald. J R Lyons outside the iconic City Hall. This momentous occasion marks a significant event in history as the Fusiliers embark on a tour across South Wales with their engaging public relations exhibition. Amidst the resounding beats and harmonious melodies, our attention is immediately drawn to an unexpected yet endearing sight - Billy the Goat leading the parade! A beloved mascot of this esteemed military unit, Billy adds a touch of whimsy and charm to an otherwise solemn affair. The image encapsulates not only the disciplined spirit and camaraderie within this renowned army regiment but also highlights their unique connection with animals. As goats have long been associated with mascots in various military traditions, Billy stands tall as a symbol of resilience and loyalty. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints from Western Mail Archive, this snapshot allows us to relive a remarkable moment where tradition meets modernity. It serves as a testament to both British heritage and cultural diversity that thrives within these historic streets.
