  • Lieutenant Gordon Stuart Frazier
    Lieutenant Gordon Stuart Frazier Gordon was born on 23rd August 1892.i He was the younger of two sons born to George Rowland and Louisa Frazier. Around the time of Gordon’s birth the family were living at 436 Coventry Road, Bordesley. His father, born in Oystermouth, Glamorgan, earned a living as a ‘provision merchant’.ii By 1901 the family had moved to 81 Golden Hillock Road, Aston (now Sparkhill) where George ran a grocer’s shop. In 1904, Gordon joined his elder brother, Rowland, at King Edward’s School (KES), New Street where he remained until 1908.iii On leaving school he was articled to Mr C Silk, quantity surveyor, of Newhall Street Birmingham. Gordon had many outside interests, in particular, cricket. As a member of Moseley Ashfield Cricket Club and committee member he became vice-captain of the second team and was considered to be an excellent bowler. Gordon was also well known in local amateur theatricals and was a player in the Moseley Junior Shakespeare Society, then the Pitsani Players.iv Figure 1: Birmingham Daily Post report on the Pitsani Payers and ‘She Stoops to Conquer’. A month after the outbreak of war in August 1914, Gordon applied to join the 14th Service Battalion (1st Birmingham Pals), Royal Warwickshire Regiment for three years with the Colours when it was formed in September by the Lord Mayor of Birmingham and a local committee. Gordon’s attestation on 5th September records him as physically fit but not for regular service and as a consequence he was posted to the 17th (Local Reserve) Battalion of the Royal Warwickshire Regiment based at Chisledon, Wiltshire as Private G S Frazier, Number 225.v On 1st July 1915 Gordon was promoted to Lance-Corporal.

First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to my supervisor, Dr John Bourne, for supporting me during my studies.

    it 1 Illu strated. FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 25th, 1S98. Oar Citizen cArm y. III. By CALLUM BEG. Photo, Pavce i t Bard. Catfora, SERGEANT, WEST KENT YEOMANRY, 1837, 278 THE NAVY AND ARMY ILLUSTRATED. [Feb. 25th, 1898. HE past year of Jubilee has done much to bring Our T Citizen Army into close touch with the Regular Forces. During the time of rejoicing in the Capital all branches of the Service were to be seen marching together, living together, and, when off duty, fraternising freely. Nor did this happy state of comradeship exist only among our troops at home. Greater Britain was not behind the Mother Country in patriotism. From efrery part of the globe Colonial volunteers and men of the permanent forces willingly came to do honour to the Queen. These, too, were welcomed by civilians and soldiers alike, and formed strong links in the chain of universal brotherhood which binds us to our Colonies. In 1897 the nation learned more of those who are ready to defend its rights than it could have done at any previous period. Indeed, one could learn much as to the appearance of different regiments, both at that time and in the past, by viewing the pageant as it passed on its way to St. Paul’s. The occasion was one that invited a retrospect— a comparison between our troops of to-day and those that marched under the British flag in 1837. Even during the reign of Queen Victoria every branch of the Service has undergone innumer­ able changes. It is, perhaps, in the matter of dress that these are most apparent to the civilian, in so far as a gay uniform has stronger attractions for the majority than dry statistics or TROOPER, DRILL ORDER, WEST KENT YEOMANRY, IS97.

  • Faith in Conflict: a Study of British Experiences in the First World War with Particular Reference to the English Midlands
    FAITH IN CONFLICT: A STUDY OF BRITISH EXPERIENCES IN THE FIRST WORLD WAR WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO THE ENGLISH MIDLANDS by STUART ANDREW BELL A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham January 2016 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract The thesis addresses the question, ‘How did the First World War affect the religious faith of the people of Britain?’ The ways in which wartime preachers, hymn-writers, diarists and letter-writers expressed their faith are examined. For the vast majority, the War was both a military and a spiritual conflict of right against might and the rhetoric of a Holy War was popular. Questions of divine omnipotence and providence troubled many, the standard response being that war was a consequence of God’s gift of free will. The language of sacrifice dominated public discourse, with many asserting that the salvation of the fallen was ensured by their own sacrifice.

Performing their work under intense machine gun and shell fire, engineers erected bridges and constructed roads, allowing infantry and artillery units to pursue the retreating enemy. These combat engineers played a vital role in battle tactics and logistical services of open warfare. Their versatile formations contributed to the Canadian Corps’ rapid victories, which included the successful Canal du Nord crossing leading to the capture of Bourlon Wood in September 1918. The battle of Bourlon Wood was an
