context_page_description: The London Regiment is an infantry regiment in the Army Reserve of the British Army. It was raised in 1993, perpetuating the lineage of some the battalions of an earlier regiment of the same name. The London Regiment is the only reserve infantry battalion completely in London District.
context_section_description: The London Regiment was reformed in 1993 through the regimentation of some of the remaining successors of the original regiment (not including, for example, the Artists Rifles or Kensington Regiment (Princess Louise's)). At formation it consisted of:
  HQ (Anzio) Company at Battersea
  A (London Scottish) Company at Westminster and Catford
  B (Queen's Regiment) Company at Edgware and Hornsey
  C (City of London Fusiliers) Company at Balham and Camberwell
  D (London Irish) Company at Chelsea
  Two companies of the Royal Green Jackets, F Company and G Company, formed part of the regiment between 1998 and 2004.
  In May 2004 Messines company, which was made up from an HQ and included two platoons from across the London Regiment deployed to Iraq.
  Following the restructuring of the British Army in 2004, it was announced that the Guards Division would gain a TA battalion. This saw the London Regiment retaining its name and multi-badge structure, while transferring from the Queen's Division to the Guards Division. The two Royal Green Jackets companies were transferred to the Royal Rifle Volunteers in preparation for the formation of The Rifles in 2007.
