William Windsor (known as Billy), a goat in the military, was a lance corporal in the 1st Battalion, the Royal Welsh, an infantry battalion of the British Army. He served as a lance corporal from 2001 until 2009, except for a three month period in 2006 when he was demoted to fusilier, after unacceptable behaviour during the Queens' birthday celebrationsWhipsnade Zoo while deployed on active service with the battalion on Cyprus. He retired to in May 2009.

From his gleaming headplate to his immaculately groomed whiskers, Lance Corporal William Windsor looked every inch the proud old soldier as he left camp for the last time yesterday.
Cheering comrades lined the route from his pen to the trailer waiting to take him to the zoo, where the Army veteran informally known as Billy the Goat will spend his retirement.
His send-off came with full military pomp and ceremony  -  befitting-his lifetime's service with the 1st Battalion the Royal Welsh.

He has travelled overseas, met royalty and led every battalion parade.
For the most part Billy, aged nine, has served as unbleatingly as a goat can  -  although he did once butt heads with top brass when he was temporarily demoted for not marching in time.
Today, his comrades showed their appreciation for Billy's eight years of service at their base in Chester.

Captain Nick Zorab said: ‘When people hear that we have a goat among the battalion, they think we must be kidding.
‘But having a goat among our ranks is a tradition we have had for over 200 years.’
The history of the regimental goat dates back to the American War of Independence when a wild goat wandered on to a battlefield and ended up leading the regimental Colours at the end of a battle.

In 1844, Queen Victoria presented the first Royal goat, and since then most have been presented by the sovereign.
The regimental goat is considered a full member of the battalion. He marches in front of the Battalion on all ceremonial duties and is much loved by all ranks.
He has a full time carer known as the Goat Major who ensures the welfare of the goat at all times.
Billy’s replacement will be unveiled in June when a kid will be collected from a herd on the Great Orme, North Wales.
