The Royal South Australia Regiment is a reserve regiment of the Australian Army. The Regiment traces its history to early volunteer and citizen militia units from pre-federation Australia and was formed in July 1960 by the amalgamation of three one-battalion infantry regiments. Although the Regiment has reached a peak strength of three battalions, it currently consists of only a single battalion, the 10th/27th Battalion, which forms part of the 9th Brigade.
