Royal New South Wales RegimentPrint Page 
The stained glass window was dedicated in 1985 and commemorates those who sacrifices in peace and war have contributed to the Infantry and Light Horse traditions now upheld by the regiment.
The regiment has been awarded a total of 117 battle honours. These come through the regiment's historical predecessors that served in the Mahdist War (Sudan), the Boer War, the First World War and the Second World War. The first battle honour received was "Suakin 1885", which was awarded to regiment due to the commitment of a 767-strong New South Wales force consisting of four infantry companies, artillery, and a field ambulance. The next battle honour, "South Africa 1899–1902" was awarded to several units based on the participation of their members in various New South Wales contingents. During the First World War, a total of 47 battle honours were awarded. The 1st and 2nd Battalions received a unique battle honour, "Herbertshohe", as they were formed from personnel who had previously served in the Australian Naval and Military Expeditionary Force that fought in German New Guinea. The remaining 68 battle honours were awarded for the Second World War.
