  • The Glasgow Academy WW1 Roll of Honour
    The Glasgow Academy WW1 Roll of Honour From the onset of the First World War in 1914 until 1918, the Glasgow Academy suffered a great many losses during the conflict. In fact, it is believed there was a higher number of losses incurred when compared to other independent schools of the time. The following is a list of the former pupils who were casualties and as far as we have been able to, includes information and photographs to tell the stories of these men. In some case, we have little or no information about some of these individuals, so please get in touch if you have anything which could help us fill in the gaps and help us tell their stories.

The intention at the outset was to include photographs of all men who had served in His Majesty's Forces during the war, but the difficulty of gathering together 2,000 photographs was found too great to be overcome, and as an alternative it was decided to confine the photographs to those who had paid the supreme sacrifice. This has been done so far as these were available. From the ranks of the S.C.W.S. Employees there went forth 2,075 men. These were to be found on every front, on land, sea, and air, and right worthily did they uphold the honour of their Country. Words cannot describe the trials and hardships endured by these men while on service, not the least amongst them being their anxiety as to how the dear ones at home were faring.

  • The Fife and Forfar Yeomanry 1914-1919
    THE FIFE AND FORFAR YEOMANRY 1914-1919 BY MAJOR D Douglas OGILVIE Officers at Fakenham, 1915. Back Row (left to right).—Lt. Smith, Lt. Rigg, Lt. Hutchison, Lt. Herdman. Lt. Gray, Lt. Stewart, Lt. Marshall, Lt. Lindsay, Lt. Robertson, Capt. Osborne, Lt. Don, Lt. Cummins, Capt. Mitchell, Capt. Ogilvie. Capt. Tuke, Major De Prée, Major Gilmour, Lt.-Col. Mitchell, Capt. Lindsay, Major Younger, Major Nairn. Lt. Nairn, Lt. Andrew, Lt. Sir W. Campbell, Lt. Inglis. FOREWORD Major Ogilvie has done me the honour of asking me to write a short preface to a work which to me is of peculiar interest. To write a preface - and especially a short one - is a somewhat difficult task, but my intense pride in, and admiration for, the part played by the Battalion with which the gallant author was so long and honourably associated must be my excuse for undertaking to do my best. From his stout record as a soldier the author's qualifications to write this history are undoubted. His readers will be able to follow from start to glorious finish of the Great War the fortunes of that gallant little band of Fife and Forfar Yeomen who ultimately became the 14th (Fife and Forfar Yeomanry) Battalion The Royal Highlanders. There was little of moment in the operations of the Egyptian Expeditionary Force in which this unit did not take part. In divers theatres of war they answered the call of Empire - from Gallipoli to Jerusalem, from Jerusalem to France - ever upholding the honour of their King and Country and the best traditions of the British Army.
