The former City Soldiers gallery at the Museum of Liverpool Life presented the life and history of the King's Regiment through film, video, memoirs and an extensive collection of uniforms, medals, trophies and weaponry.
The King's is one of Britain's oldest regiments, created in 1685. It has been Liverpool's regiment since 1881 and is now joined with the Manchester Regiment. Over the centuries it has been a way of life for thousands of men, during peace and war. Members of the regiment have served in two world wars, in Asia, Africa, America and Ireland.
