The Royal Lincolnshire Regiment (10th Foot)

The Royal Lincolnshire Regiment was raised in 1685. It was awarded the Sphinx emblem and Honour EGYPT for service under Wellington in 1801. Its most famous Battle Honour was gained at SOBRAON in 1846 during the Sikh Wars in India. It gained the nickname "The Poachers" from the title of its Regimental March, "The Lincolnshire Poacher".
