Hundreds of people lined Llanelli streets to cheer on the heroes of The Royal Welsh.
On a sunny June Saturday, the crowds cheered, clapped and waved at the soldiers who were given the Freedom of Carmarthenshire in 2008.
The regiment paraded from the Selwyn Samuel Centre to The Town Hall, where they were led by ‘Taffy’ the regiment mascot and accompanied by the Royal Welsh Band.
