    1 BATTLE & DISTRICT HISTORICAL SOCIETY baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaac THE ROYAL SUSSEX REGIMENT IN WORLD WAR I Matthew Jones 20 March 2014 This lecture was originally scheduled for 20 February 2014. However Mr Jones kindly agreed to swap dates due to the speaker for ‘To The Manor Born …’ becoming unavailable.. ‘Lowther’s Own Marching Song’1 1. Refrain Oh the Sussex boys are stirring For the Sussex stock is staunch In the wood-land and the Down; And the Sussex blood is true, We are moving in the hamlet, And the Sussex lads are keen We are rising in the town; When there’s soldier’s work to do. For the call in King and Country Hear us tramp, tramp, tramp Since the foe has asked for war, ’til the county is a camp, And when danger calls or duty And we start the little business We are always to the fore. We have sworn to carry through. 2. We have come from shop and sheepfold, We have come from desk and store, We have left our peaceful callings To be taught the trade of war; For our hearths, and homes, and honour As a bulwark we will stand, Fighting hard for England’s glory And the pleasant Sussex land. repeat refrain 3. Oh we know that we are wanted, And we know the risk we run, But we wouldn’t think of shrinking When there’s duty to be done. We would go if others shirked it And we had to go alone For the honour of our country And our pride in “Lowther’s Own.” repeat refrain Mr Jones is Assistant County Archivist at the West Sussex Record Office, which houses the regimental archive of our county regiment and we were delighted to welcome him for an interesting and at times deeply moving insight into the regiment and lives of some of its men.

  • Nevill Lindsay Young by Nicola Mcdowell
    West Sussex & the Great War Project www.westsussexpast.org.uk Following in His Father’s Footsteps Image from West Sussex Record Office RSR PH 2/14 A Case Study of 2nd Lieutenant Nevill Lindsay Young By Nicola McDowell © Nicola McDowell and West Sussex County Council 1 West Sussex & the Great War Project www.westsussexpast.org.uk Summary This Case Study researches the life of Second Lieutenant Nevill Lindsay Young, 2nd Battalion Royal Sussex Regiment. With reference to his own brief war diary, the transcript of his battalion diary and with the assistance of his service record and various other family records and photographs, this Case Study pieces together Nevill’s life prior to joining the army and his service in the Royal Sussex Regiment during The Great War . Introduction Second Lieutenant Nevill Lindsay Young was one of the very many young men, who at the outbreak of World War 1, willingly gave up their lives to fight for their country. His story, like many others is a humbling and emotive one. Drawn by the intriguing prospect of reading an original war diary, that was written in the trenches and survived one of the most famous battlefields of The Great War, I chose to research Nevill’s story and set off to West Sussex Record Office (WSRO) in Chichester to delve into the history of a young man who was neither a member of my family or known to me in any way at all. Family Background Nevill Lindsay Young was born on the 19th July 1897. His father was Major General James Charles Young, an Irishman who began his own prestigious military career in the 35th Regiment of Foot in 1877.

It moves the young and the not so young beyond their understanding. It was a war where generals accepted casualties in tens of thousands, but we know each casualty was a known and loved individual.

  • Examining My Grandfather's War at El Alamein
    A Private on the Public Stage: Examining My Grandfather’s War at El Alamein ‡ Laurie James Laker My grandfather, Eric George Laker, was captured at the Battle of El Alamein, North Africa, on October 27, 1942. He was held in a succession of prisoner of war camps across central Europe before the war ended in 1945. For the duration of his captivity he kept a diary, which he titled “Summary of Events: From 27th October 1942 to 24th May 1945.” At the time of his capture, he was 22 years old. Repatriated to England on May 24, 1945–he arrived home in Sussex at age 25, having been a prisoner of war for two years and seven months. While the bulk of the diary reflects upon his time as a prisoner of war, of chief importance and interest to me, however, is the specific focus that comes from the initial pages of this diary–The Battle of El Alamein. The Second Battle of El Alamein took place over a period of 20 days from October 23, 1942, until November 11, 1942. The second of the two great battles in North Africa, this latter engagement resulted in the Axis forces retreating and conceding defeat, despite Hitler’s insistence that Rommel “show [the German forces] no other road than that to victory or death” (Rommel and Hart 321). It was this battle that turned the tide of the second World War in favor of the Allies, marking a distinct revival in the morale of the Allied forces and 177 commanders–it was the first major offensive victory against the enemy since the start of the European war in 1939.

  • 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.
