  • The Colours Part 1: the Regular Battalions
    The Colours Part 1: The Regular Battalions By Lieutenant General J. P. Riley CB DSO PhD MA FRHistS 1. The Earliest Days At the time of the raising of Lord Herbert’s Regiment in March 1689,i it was usual for a regiment of foot to hold ten Colours. This number corre- sponded to the number of companies in the regiment and to the officers who commanded these companies although the initial establishment of Herbert’s Regiment was only eight companies. We have no record of the issue of any Colours to Herbert’s Regiment – and probably the Colo- nel paid for their manufacture himself as he did for much of the dress and equipment of his regiment. What we do know however is that each Colour was the rallying point for the company in battle and the symbol of its esprit. Colours were large – generally six feet square although no regulation on size yet existed – so that they could easily be seen in the smoke of a 17th Century battlefield for we must remember that before the days of smokeless powder, obscuration was a major factor in battle. So too was the ability of a company to keep its cohesion, deliver effec- tive fire and change formation rapidly either to attack, defend, or repel cavalry. A company was made up of anywhere between sixty and 100 men, with three officers and a varying number of sergeants, corporals and drummers depending on the actual strength. About one-third of the men by this time were armed with the pike, two-thirds with the match- lock musket.

    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-19480-8 - Armies of Empire: The 9th Australian and 50th British Divisions in Battle 1939-1945 Allan Converse Frontmatter More information Armies of Empire The 9th Australian and 50th British Divisions in Battle 1939–1945 Armies of Empire uniquely reflects upon the experience of two divisions from different armies facing similar challenges in the Second World War. The 9th Australian Division and the British 50th (Northumbrian) Division both saw long service and suffered heavy casualties, and both encountered morale, discipline and battlefield effectiveness problems. In this illuminating, comparative study of Australian and British divisions at war, Allan Converse draws extensively on primary sources as well as recent scholarship on morale and combat efficiency. His fresh approach questions the popular mythology surrounding the Australian Digger and the British Tommy, and shows how it was a combination of leadership, loyalty and tactics, rather than intrinsic national qualities, which resulted in victory for Churchill’s armies.

Operating from the jungle and supported by some members of the Chinese community living mainly in squatter camps, the Communist terrorists or 'CTs' as they were known, carried out ambushes and assassinations, attacked Police Stations, road & rail communications, tin mines, and plantations usually termed 'estates'. British and Commonwealth Armed Forces together with the Malayan Police responded with ever increasing effectiveness, and in a campaign lasting twelve years, progressively defeated the terrorists, and in 1960 the 'Emergency' ended.
