  • Inniskillings, Spent Time As a Prisoner in Germany from August 1914
    remembrance ni ! The Advance in Flanders. Troops of the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers, 36th (Ulster) Division, advancing from Ravelsburg Ridge, 1 September 1918. Inniskilling insights WW1 The Regiment raised 13 Battalions and was awarded 46 Battle Honours and 8 Victoria Crosses, losing 5,890 men during the course of the war. Page !1 Derry Fusiliers in the hell of Passchendale The Third Battles of Ypres 1917, more commonly known as the battle of Passchendaele, took place between July and November 1917. It actually consisted of eight officially listed ‘battles’. Mustard Gas 8th August 1917 On the night of 7th August 1917 the 10th R. Inniskilling Fusiliers moved up to the front line at Passchendaele and in the darkness they entered a nightmare world. Carrying their heavy kit whilst struggling through deep, sticky mud, the light from flares and explosions illuminated a sea of water-filled shell holes and thick mud. There were no trenches as they flooded, so men had little protection from the high explosive shells and machine-gun fire and took cover where they could. At 1am on 8th August as the battalion relieved the 15th RIR from their stint in the front line, suddenly, without warning, artillery shells fell among them. This time they were not filled with explosives, but the German's new horror weapon … mustard gas. Gas masks offered some protection for the eyes and lungs from gas clouds, but were not effective this time as men had been heavily splattered by the liquid gas and it burned through their uniforms creating huge blisters as big as the palm of the hand and burning through flesh to the bone.
