Not that I want to see them go, but what's happening in the United Kingdom is what has already happened in other armies. You don't see Illinois regiments or Texas regiments in the US anymore except in the National Guard, and even they are being pulled into "Big Army". I'm sure the same kinds of discussions happened here as well. What is bound to happen is there may be a few special units in the active military, but most of these regiments will only be known through history and reenactors. Times change and the military has to change with it. Sad, but true.
