British regiments date back hundreds of years, so some have a long history of wars and campaigns and awards. You question was posted under WW2, so I assume you refer to WW2, only. Also, British Regiments were divided into Battalions and each battalion could serve in different areas of the war. The regiments were given Names and the numbers were dropped in 1881. This explains why you will see some listed as "8 Royal Fusiliers"; which is identifying the 8th Battalion of the Royal Fusiliers. Royal Parachute Regiment was an elite airborne unit that was used at Normandy and Market-Garden. Royal Scots Greys became an armored unit in WW2 but their history goes back to the charge of the Light Brigade in the Crimean War.
