The Westminster Dragoons have a long and distinguished history.  That history is recorded mainly in privately-published books and pamphlets with only limited circulation.  In the interest of keeping the WDs’ history alive in the minds of serving and former members, and everyone else, we are making some of these publications available for download here.  Please download them for educational purposes only.  Click on the cover image of each document to download it.


Our library also contains copies of recent HQ Sqn RY Journals and downloadable fitness guides.
