  • 100 Year Commemoration BATTLE of the SOMME 1St July to 18Th November, 1916 Remembering Hedge End Heroes Lost at the Battle of the Somme
    100 Year Commemoration BATTLE OF THE SOMME 1st July to 18th November, 1916 Remembering Hedge End Heroes Lost at the Battle of the Somme. The Allied offensive upon a line from north of Gommecourt to Maricourt was launched on 1st July, 1916, and the battle lasted seven days. There was little effect upon the German defences and the allied forces met unexpected and fierce resistance. There were devastating losses, little progress on the southern flank and the attack failed. This was the Battle of the Somme. Thiepval Memorial located near the village of Thiepval, off the main Bapaume to Albert Road, is a memorial to the missing of the Somme and bears the names of more than 72,000 officers and men of the United Kingdom and South African forces who died in the Somme sector before 20th March, 1918 and have no known grave. Of those commemorated, 90% died between July and November, 1916. Today, we remember all of those who lost their lives for King and Country, and here we focus on those who were born and lived in Hedge End. James Windsor d. 1st July, 1916 James was the eldest son of Charles and Alice Mary Windsor (née Page) and was born in Hedge End in 1895. His family lived in Chapel Drove. Prior to enlisting James was a Market Gardener/Labourer. Private James Windsor of the 1st Battalion, Hampshire Regiment was killed in action on 1st July, 1916 and is amongst those commemorated on the Thiepval Memorial, he was 21 years of age.

  • Rushmoor Men Who Died During the Battle of the Somme
    Rushmoor men who died during the Battle of the Somme Compiled by Paul H Vickers, Friends of the Aldershot Military Museum, January 2016 Introduction To be included in this list a man must be included in the Rushmoor Roll of Honour: citizens of Aldershot, Farnborough and Cove who fell in the First World War as a resident of Rushmoor at the time of the First World War. The criteria for determining residency and the sources used for each man are detailed in the Rushmoor Roll of Honour. From the Rushmoor Roll of Honour men were identified who had died during the dates of the battle of the Somme, 1 July to 18 November 1916. Men who died up to 30 November were also considered to allow for those who may have died later of wounds received during the battle. To determine if they died at the Somme, consideration was then given to their unit and the known locations and actions of that unit, whether the man was buried in one of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) Somme cemeteries or listed on a memorial to the missing of the Somme, mainly the Thiepval Memorial, or who are noted in the Roll of Honour details as having died at the Somme or as a result of wounds sustained at the Somme. The entries in this list are arranged by regiment and battalion (or battery for the Royal Artillery). For each man the entry from the Rushmoor Roll of Honour is given, and for each regiment or battalion there is a summary of its movements up to the start of the Battle of the Somme and its participation in the battle up to the time the men listed were killed.

Consequently, men commemorated at other locations around Ashdown Forest are not covered by this project. Our aim is to produce case studies in chronological order, and we expect to produce 116 in total. This first volume deals with the 46 men who died between the declaration of war on 4 August 1914 and 31 December 1916. We hope you will find these case studies interesting and thought-provoking.

  • The Royal Sussex Regiment in 1914 by Kathy Sykes
    The Royal Sussex Regiment in 1914 Kathy Sykes When war was declared on 4 August 1914, the British Army consisted of three distinct elements: the Regular Army, the Territorial Force and the Reserves. The Regular Army comprised some 250,000 men, the majority of whom were recruited and organized in county-based infantry regiments, each containing two battalions of approximately 1,000 men. The Regular Army was supported by the Territorial Force of part-time soldiers who, while partly trained, were not available for immediate deployment and were not required to serve overseas. The administration of the Territorial Force was in the hands of County Associations, led by local landowners who were responsible for training & equipping all of the Territorial units. In Sussex this was the Lord Lieutenant, the Duke of Norfolk. The Reserves were created by legislation in 1908 and were composed of men with no previous military experience but who made themselves available for service in the Regular Army in the event of mobilization. In addition, men who had previously served in the Regular Army formed the General Reserve and were eligible to be recalled to the Colours in the event of a general mobilization. In 1881, the 1st and 2nd battalions of The Royal Sussex Regiment were formed. The 1st Battalion had taken part in the Boer War of 1899 to 1902 and were based in Peshawar, India from the outset of World War 1. They were to remain there for the duration of the fighting. During the weeks prior to the outbreak of war, the 2nd Battalion was stationed in Woking, Surrey.
