  • TWICE a CITIZEN Celebrating a Century of Service by the Territorial Army in London
    TWICE A CITIZEN Celebrating a century of service by the Territorial Army in London www.TA100.co.uk The Reserve Forces’ and Cadets’ Association for Greater London Twice a Citizen “Every Territorial is twice a citizen, once when he does his ordinary job and the second time when he dons his uniform and plays his part in defence.” This booklet has been produced as a souvenir of the celebrations for the Centenary of the Territorial Field Marshal William Joseph Slim, Army in London. It should be remembered that at the time of the formation of the Rifle Volunteers 1st Viscount Slim, KG, GCB, GCMG, GCVO, GBE, DSO, MC in 1859, there was no County of London, only the City. Surrey and Kent extended to the south bank of the Thames, Middlesex lay on the north bank and Essex bordered the City on the east. Consequently, units raised in what later became the County of London bore their old county names. Readers will learn that Londoners have much to be proud of in their long history of volunteer service to the nation in its hours of need. From the Boer War in South Africa and two World Wars to the various conflicts in more recent times in The Balkans, Iraq and Afghanistan, London Volunteers and Territorials have stood together and fought alongside their Regular comrades. Some have won Britain’s highest award for valour - the Victoria Cross - and countless others have won gallantry awards and many have made the ultimate sacrifice in serving their country. This booklet may be recognised as a tribute to all London Territorials who have served in the past, to those who are currently serving and to those who will no doubt serve in the years to come.

  • Service Lists for the Army, Navy and Air Force
    SOCIAL SCIENCES COLLECTION GUIDES OFFICIAL PUBLICATIONS www.bl.uk/subjects/national-and-international-government-publications Service lists for the Army, Navy and Air Force INTRODUCTION This guide is the result of merging two separate checklists. The checklist of Army Lists (British Army lists 1642- : a chronological handlist) is undated and without attribution of authorship. It is believed to have been compiled around 1980 as a collaborative effort by the staff at that time of what was then the Official Publications Library (OPL) of the British Library; the identity of the actual compiler is unknown. The checklist of Navy Lists (Navy lists : a chronological handlist of lists of ships and officers of the Royal Navy since ca 1640) is better documented. It was compiled in 1986 by Joy Tilley, a graduate library trainee, as a project for her work experience training under the supervision of Richard Cheffins who edited the result. No attempt has been made to further edit the original checklists except to update a few pressmarks, to clarify some minor points of uncertainty, to expand somewhat on the current Army and Navy lists and to add a section on Air Force lists. The item numbering of Army Lists has been discontinued but otherwise the inconsistencies of style and layout between, and even within, the two main lists have been left to stand but these should not hinder the use of this guide. The original Navy checklist had a brief introduction which has been incorporated into this one; the Army checklist had none. Both had brief 'further reading' lists which have been combined as the penultimate section of this guide.

  • Lothians and Border Yeomanry) Squadron, the Scottish and North Irish Yeomanry
    THE HISTORY OF E (LOTHIANS AND BORDER YEOMANRY) SQUADRON, THE SCOTTISH AND NORTH IRISH YEOMANRY The full title of E Squadron is E (Lothians and Border Yeomanry) Squadron, The Scottish and North Irish Yeomanry. This title reflects the complicated history of the Sqn. This brief history is intended give an overview of the many tasks that this Sqn has been asked to do over the years. The other Sqns in The SNIY have equally varied histories and have had to prove just as adaptable. The Sqns of the SNIY are:- A (Ayrshire (Earl of Carrick’s Own) Yeomanry) Squadron, based in Ayr. B (North Irish Horse) Squadron, based in Belfast. C (Fife & Forfar Yeomanry/Scottish Horse) Squadron, based in Cupar, Fife. E (Lothians and Border Yeomanry) Squadron, based in Edinburgh. Regimental Headquarters is co-located with E Sqn at Redford Infantry Barracks in Edinburgh. E Sqn’s battle honours are recorded as in the photograph of the Regimental Standard, held in the HQ, Younger House. The Sqn’s predecessors most notably served in the Boer War and the First and Second World Wars. A memorial to the Lothians and Borders men who fell in the Boer War is located outside Dunbar Parish Church in East Lothian (in which the Regimental Standard is laid up); Dunbar is regarded as the historical home of the Sqn, having been home to the L&BH/Y through the late 19th and the early 20th Centuries. Today, this connection and that with the county town of East Lothian, is recognised through the naming of ‘Dunbar’ and ‘Haddington’ Troops and the SNIY ACF detachments.

  • Mountsorrel Yeomen the Leicestershire Yeomanry - the Road to War 1914
    Mountsorrel Yeomen The Leicestershire Yeomanry - The Road to War 1914 Origins The Leicestershire Yeomanry have their origins in those regiments raised to meet a feared French invasion during the crisis of 1794. Following a meeting at the Three Crowns Inn in Leicester on April 10, where details were agreed, funding and volunteers found, by 4th July the Regiment consisting of six troops paraded to receive their standards. With the Peace of Amiens in 1802, the regiment was disbanded but rapidly reformed the following September, as the Leicestershire Yeomanry Cavalry. The regiment was renamed for Prince Albert, the Prince Consort, in 1844. Yeomanry units were intended for Home Service only and thus when mounted infantry were needed for the South African Wars a new force, The Imperial Yeomanry, was formed with units being sponsored with manpower coming from the ranks of the Yeomanry and other volunteer units. The regiment sponsored two companies of the Imperial Yeomanry in 1900 (the 7th and 65th). In 1901 the regiment was itself reorganized as mounted infantry as the Leicestershire (Prince Albert's Own) Imperial Yeomanry. In 1908 it was transferred into the Territorial Force, returning to a cavalry role and equipping as hussars, under the new title of The Leicestershire (Prince Albert's Own) Yeomanry. Organisation and Training With Regimental HQ at Magazine Square in Leicester, squadrons were based across the County: A Squadron Melton Mowbray B Squadron Leicester C Squadron Loughborough D Squadron Lutterworth (with Troops at Wigstam and Ibstock) C Squadron, based originally in Selborne St and later Toothill Road Loughborough, also had the use of facilities at the Drill Hall in Mountsorrel.

  • Bucks Soldiers
    Centre for Buckinghamshire Studies Bucks Soldiers The Centre for Buckinghamshire Studies (CBS) holds a wide collection of records detailing the service of the county’s people in arms. Predominantly, the units raised here have been irregulars, comprised of volunteers rather than professional soldiers. Good general introductions to the subject can be found in Ian Beckett’s ‘Call to Arms’ and Maj Gen. Swann’s ‘Citizen Soldiers of Buckinghamshire’, both available in the Local Studies Library amongst other books on local military matters. This research guide starts with an outline guide to records from different periods then moves on to list specific records relating to individual regiments. It highlights those records in which individual soldiers or their families are named. Many military records are held by the National Archives, particularly for the regular army, so it is always worth trying there. Medieval and Early Modern Records Until 1558, armed service was a feudal obligation for many of the county’s people. The upper classes would be called upon to supply a certain number of troops from the lower class tenancy. No records listing the names of soldiers on any medieval campaign are held at CBS. In the early modern period there is only a list of men 'as are pressed' for the Flushing campaign in 1624 (ref: D-X 397/2). The Buckinghamshire Record Society have also published a transcript of the 1522 Certificate of Musters. This volume records the wealth of every man over 16, purportedly to assess their contribution for the provision of harness in the event of a muster.

  • Each Company of Infantry Was to Consist of Three Somerset Volunteers of the Eighteenth Centuri
    Somerset l^oluntccrs of tf)e aBigfttccntf) Ccnturp. BY HENRY SYMONDS, F.S.A. THE volunteer movement in its earliest days was closely connected with the militia. About 1778 officers com- manduig militia regiments were authorized to accept offers of voluntary service in their ranks, wliich were normally re- cruited by a quota of men from each townsliip or parish, the choice being determined by ballot. These offers of service were first made by individuals and subsequently by com- panies under their own officers, but in either case such volun- teers became merged in the militia units and were subject to their regulations. In 1782 a Volunteer Act was passed to encourage the formation of corps of men who would volun- tarily enroll themselves for the defence of their districts in the event of invasion or rebellion. Although it is most probable that military associations were organized in this county their muster-rolls and records, if any have survived, are now in private ow^iership and unlinown to me. In the year 1794, when danger again threatened from France, another Act (34 Geo. Ill, cap. 31) was passed which may be justly described as the charter of the Volunteers, whether horse or foot, as we know them. This statute re- cognized these auxihaiies as an integral portion of our home forces, and provided for their organization by a scheme called the Plan wliich was to be adopted as the basis of defence in each county under the Lord-Lieutenant. The Volunteers were under certain conditions exempted from liability to serve in or find a substitute for the militia, a quite substantial boon.

Signature………………………………………………………… Date……………………………………………………………….. 2 Abstract The mechanization of British Cavalry regiments took place between the two World Wars and on into 1942. This thesis describes the process by which horsed cavalrymen were re-trained in armoured fighting vehicles (AFVs) and the experiences of some of the regiments managing this change. Extensive use has been made of the oral testimonies of many of the soldiers involved, a number of whom are still living, as well as regimental and War Office archives. The reason given for the delay in cavalry mechanization, cited in some military histories, much influenced by Sir Basil Liddell Hart, was resistance from the cavalry to parting from their horses.
