  • Private Arthur Phillip FLUNDER Service Number: 16708 11Th Battalion (Cambridge Pals) the Suffolk Regiment Died 1St July 1916
    Private Arthur Phillip FLUNDER Service Number: 16708 11th Battalion (Cambridge Pals) The Suffolk Regiment Died 1st July 1916 Commemorated on Thiepval Memorial Pier and face 1C and 2A WW1 Centenary record of an Unknown Soldier Recruitment – 11th Battalion Suffolk Regiment – Suffolks/Cambs – (Cambridge Pals) Private Arthur FLUNDER was a member of the 11th Suffolks, which was a service battalion known as the Cambs/Suffolks or Cambridge Pals. At the outbreak of the war, men of the County enlisting for Infantry were sent to the Suffolk Regiment Depot at Bury St Edmunds. This soon became overcrowded and a relief camp was formed in Cambridge. Battle of the Somme The plan was for the British forces to attack on a fourteen-mile front after an intense week-long artillery bombardment of the German positions. Over 1.6 million shells were fired, 70 for every one metre of front, the idea being to decimate the German Front Line. Two minutes before zero-hour, 19 mines were exploded under the German lines. Whistles sounded and the troops went over the top at 7.30am. They advanced in lines at a slow, steady pace across No Man's Land towards then German front line. Objective 9 – La Boisselle – The Somme - See fig 1. Attack on La Boisselle Private Arthur FLUNDER and the 11th Suffolks were assigned Objective 9, an attack on the village of La Boisselle. The village of La Boisselle was of huge strategic importance as it would open up the road to Bapaume. This would allow the Allies to attack Poziers, the next town further up the road then from there, Thiepval.

  • THE 24Th REGIMENTS LINKS with the COUNTY of WARWICKSHIRE
    THE 24th REGIMENT’S LINKS WITH THE COUNTY OF WARWICKSHIRE. A revision of the article of the same name from the Journal of the Anglo Zulu War Historical Society, June 1997. (Inaugural Edition). By Derrick Smart __________________________________________________________________________________ ‘Regiments are raised in troubled times’. The birth of the 24th Regiment was in accordance with this dictum. In the early months of 1689 William and Mary newly arrived from Holland, reigned uneasily over a country still recovering from James II’s determined bid to regain the throne of England in the revolution of 1688. That revolution led to war with Louis X1V’s France (Louis had championed the ill-fated James); and to fight the war it was necessary to provide troops. King William as was the custom of the times, sent off Commissions to the noblemen and landowners who supported his cause. One such Commission went to Sir Edward Dering, 3rd Baronet, of Surrenden in Kent. The Commission was acted upon at once. It was dated 8th March 1689 and by 28th March, the first muster was held and Dering’s Regiment became part of the Standing Army and thereafter named after the Colonel (1). The Royal Warrant of 1st July 1751 listing precedence gave the Regiment seniority as the 24th Regiment of Foot. The 24th formed a 2nd Battalion in Lincolnshire in 1756, which was used in 1758 to form the 69th Regiment of Foot. In 1782 they were re-titled as the 69th (South Lincolnshire) Regiment of Foot. The 24th Regiment’s 2nd Battalion was re-formed in Warwick in 1804 being disbanded in 1814.

  • The Pipes and Drums of the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards (Carabiniers and Greys)
    The Pipes and Drums of The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards (Carabiniers and Greys) The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards are Scotland`s senior regiment and only regular cavalry regiment. The Regiment was formed in 1971 from the amalgamation of the 3rd Carabiniers (whom were themselves the result of the amalgamation of the 6th Dragoon Guards the Carabiniers and the 3rd the Prince of Wales Dragoon Guards in 1922) and The Royal Scots Greys (2nd Dragoons). The history of The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards is therefore the record of three ancient regiments. Through The Royal Scots Greys, whose predecessors were raised by King Charles II in 1678 the Regiment can claim to be the oldest surviving Cavalry of the Line in The British Army. Displayed on the Regimental Standard are just fifty of the numerous battle honours won in wars and campaigns spanning three centuries. The most celebrated of these are Waterloo, Balaklava and Nunshigum. At the Battle of Waterloo in 1815 the Scots Greys took part in the famous Charge of the Union Brigade. It was here that Sergeant Ewart captured the Imperial Eagle, the Standard of Napoleon`s 45th Regiment. This standard is now displayed in the Home Headquarters of The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards at Edinburgh Castle and in commemoration the Eagle forms part of The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards cap badge. During the Crimean War in 1854 two Victoria Crosses were awarded at the Battle of Balaklava against the Russians in the famous Charge of the Heavy Brigade. In World War II the battle honour Nunshigum was won by B Squadron of the 3rd Carabiniers against the Japanese in Burma.

The Reverend Neil Gardner officiated and the Lowland Band of the Royal Regiment of Scotland played throughout. Standard bearers from The Royal Scots Association provided a colourful backdrop at the Kirk. Lunch then followed at the Club. The following day The Princess Royal, our Patron, was present at a ceremony at the Club to launch the Club centenary book by Mr Roddy Martine “Not for Riches, Nor Glory, One Hundred Years of The Royal Scots Club”. If you have yet to obtain your copy of this book I strongly urge you to do so – it is an excellent read.

Nevertheless, it is the first study of the German community in an urban location in Scotland. Unfortunately, most of those who read this review will not have the linguistic ability to read the book it describes. This is a great pity because of the thorough- ness of the research, the command of ideas and the richness of the narrative. It traces the rise and fall of an immigrant minority in Britain, describing the way in which the country both accepted and then rejected one particular immigrant group: Glasgow could be any other location which had a similar-sized German community, whether Bradford, Leeds, Liverpool or Manchester. The book really does represent a case study of a national picture. For non-German speak- ers, let us hope that it appears as an English translation for it is a very rich work of scholarship that deserves a very wide readership.
