The Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire Regiment was an Infantry Regiment consisting of Battalions of the amalgamated Bedfordshire Regiment and Hertfordshire Regiment. This amalgamation took place with the reorganisation of the Army by 1922.
As an inter-war Infantry Battalion, it would have had a Machine Gun Platoon that was formed into a Machine Gun Company in the early 1930s.
This remained until the formation of Divisional Machine Gun Battalions in 1936 where guns were brigaded.
Upon the disbandment of Divisional Machine Gun Battalions in the post-WW2 restructure of the British Army, the Vickers Machine Gun assets reverted to individual Battalions as part of the Support Company as a Machine Gun Platoon.
