The 33rd (Lancashire and Cheshire) Signal Regiment was a British Territorial Army regiment of the Royal Corps of Signals. == History == The regiment was originally a TAVR II (Territorial and Army Volunteer Reserve) unit created due to defence cuts, being formed on 1 April 1967 at Huyton, near Liverpool and consisting of four squadrons: *HQ Squadron *42 (East Lancashire) Signal Squadron – successor to the 42nd (Lancashire and Cheshire) Signal Regiment *59 (West Lancashire) Signal Squadron – successor to the 59th Signal Regiment *80 (Cheshire) Signal Squadron – successor to the 80th Signal Regiment In 1973, 80 Squadron became 80 (Cheshire Yeomanry) Squadron, in honour of the Cheshire Yeomanry (Earl of Chester's) from which the squadron descended. In 1969, the TAVR was re-designated as the Territorial Army. In 1999, during the reforms implemented due to the Strategic Defence Review, the squadron subtitles, with the exception of 80 Squadron, were changed. They became: *55 (Merseyside) HQ Squadron *42 (City of Manchester) Signal Squadron *59 (City of Liverpool) Signal Squadron 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「33 (Lancashire and Cheshire) Signal Regiment」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
