Regimental depot

The regimental depot of a regiment is the regimental headquarters and normally also the place where recruits are assembled and trained. It is also where soldiers and officers awaiting discharge or postings are based, and where injured soldiers return to full fitness after discharge from hospital before returning to full duty. A variety of regimental stores will also be kept at the depot.

In the British Army, regimental depots are permanent bases, and before modern amalgamations, were frequently located in the geographical area from which the regiment took its name.
