The regiment served across the British Empire — in India, South Africa and the Caribbean — before facing the full horror of the Western Front in the First World War, where they suffered catastrophic losses at the Somme and Passchendaele.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the Second World War they fought in North Africa and Italy. The Sherwood Foresters amalgamated with the Worcestershire Regiment in 1970 to form the Worcestershire and Sherwood Foresters Regiment, and their lineage ultimately passed into the Mercian Regiment in 2007 — but the stag's head and the Nottinghamshire connection remain a source of fierce regional pride.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis regimental tie is a fitting tribute to a regiment that gave everything, from the Midlands to the mud of Flanders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: approx. 3.5″ (9cm) at widest point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 56″ (142cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Polyester, fully lined\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCare: Dry clean only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eMOD Licensed\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs an official MOD Licence holder, every badge and insignia on this tie is used under strict licence terms. \u003cstrong\u003e8% of every sale is donated annually to the MOD, distributed to military welfare charities.\u003c\/strong\u003e Buying this tie honours the Sherwood Foresters and the communities of Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire that sent their sons to serve.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FatChimp \u0026 Co","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57139267436922,"sku":"sku-58452752499013","price":25.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0855\/4684\/files\/SFNotts_Derby.jpg?v=1785774028","url":"https:\/\/www.fatchimp.co.uk\/products\/the-sherwood-foresters-notts-derby-tie","provider":"Fat Chimp Forces Wear \u0026 Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
