    TWICE a CITIZEN Celebrating a Century of Service by the Territorial Army in London

    TWICE A CITIZEN Celebrating a century of service by the Territorial Army in London www.TA100.co.uk The Reserve Forces’ and Cadets’ Association for Greater London Twice a Citizen “Every Territorial is twice a citizen, once when he does his ordinary job and the second time when he dons his uniform and plays his part in defence.” This booklet has been produced as a souvenir of the celebrations for the Centenary of the Territorial Field Marshal William Joseph Slim, Army in London. It should be remembered that at the time of the formation of the Rifle Volunteers 1st Viscount Slim, KG, GCB, GCMG, GCVO, GBE, DSO, MC in 1859, there was no County of London, only the City. Surrey and Kent extended to the south bank of the Thames, Middlesex lay on the north bank and Essex bordered the City on the east. Consequently, units raised in what later became the County of London bore their old county names. Readers will learn that Londoners have much to be proud of in their long history of volunteer service to the nation in its hours of need. From the Boer War in South Africa and two World Wars to the various conflicts in more recent times in The Balkans, Iraq and Afghanistan, London Volunteers and Territorials have stood together and fought alongside their Regular comrades. Some have won Britain’s highest award for valour - the Victoria Cross - and countless others have won gallantry awards and many have made the ultimate sacrifice in serving their country. This booklet may be recognised as a tribute to all London Territorials who have served in the past, to those who are currently serving and to those who will no doubt serve in the years to come.

    Corporal RONALD LEON HARDING Gunner JOHN DOUGLAS HARDING

    Those we remember who died in the Second World War – Luttons Corporal RONALD LEON HARDING Gunner JOHN DOUGLAS HARDING We have put together the following information in an attempt to bring these soldiers to the front of our minds. Please accept our apologies our apologies for any inaccuracies, or missed information. We intend to expand this information over time, so do let us know if you have any further information which we can add to our work. In Memory of Corporal RONALD LEON HARDING 4747584, The Hallamshire Bn., York and Lancaster Regiment who died age 25 on 07 September 1944 Son of Thomas Sewing Harding and Hannah Ewbank Harding, of Sheffield; husband of Winnie Harding, of Sheffield. Remembered with honour ST. DESIR WAR CEMETERY Commemorated in perpetuity by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission Ronald Leon Harding Remembered In 1911, records show that Ronald Leon Harding’s grandparents and his Father (John Harding) lived in the Forge at West Lutton, and he is remembered, along with his brother, John Douglas, on their graves. At the time of the Second World War he, his parents and his wife were living in Sheffield – hence he joined the Hallamshire Battalion. The Hallamshire War Diary shows two entries which seem to relate to our Ronald Harding. It states that on 31st August 1944 the Battalion remained in rest at Vieus Port. During the afternoon of that day Captain Cowell and Corporal Harding were travelling in a Jeep which struck a mine. Both were seriously wounded. The diary shows that “Ronald Leon Harding, aged 25, died on 7th September.

Descriptive Summary Creator: Various Title: Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection Date Span: 1875-1972 Abstract: The Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection consists of 800 playbills and programs for motion pictures, musical concerts, high school commencement exercises, lectures, photoplays, vaudeville, and burlesque, as well as the more traditional offerings such as plays and operas, all from Brooklyn theaters. Quantity: 2.25 linear feet Location: Brooklyn Collection Map Room, cabinet 11 Repository: Brooklyn Public Library – Brooklyn Collection Reference Code: BC0071 Scope and Content Note The 800 items in the Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection, which occupies 2.25 cubic feet, easily refute the stereotypes of Brooklyn as provincial and insular. From the late 1880s until the 1940s, the period covered by the bulk of these materials, the performing arts thrived in Brooklyn and were available to residents right at their doorsteps. At one point, there were over 200 theaters in Brooklyn. Frequented by the rich, the middle class and the working poor, they enjoyed mass popularity. With materials from 115 different theaters, the collection spans almost a century, from 1875 to 1972. The highest concentration is in the years 1890 to 1909, with approximately 450 items.
