  • Lest We Forget Information Package First World War
    Lest We Forget Information Package First World War Happy Canadians who captured Vimy Ridge returning to rest billets on motor lorries, May 1917. Department of National Defence/Library and Archives Canada, PA‐001353 First World War Personnel Files These information sheets will help to interpret the documents found in the service files of the Canadian Expeditionary Force. The War Diaries Service files indicate where enlisted personnel were posted in England, but do not record the locations of military postings or battles in France or Belgium. The files provide the name or number of the unit in which the individual served. With that information, locations and battles can be determined by searching the relevant War Diaries. Canadian Expeditionary Force units were required to maintain a daily account of their “Actions in the Field.” These logs were called War Diaries and they are a historical record of a unit’s administration, operations and activities during the First World War. The records have been scanned and can be viewed online. Find out how to consult the War Diaries at http://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/discover/military- heritage/first-world-war/Pages/war-diaries.aspx. Military Abbreviations, Terms and Meanings Service personnel military files from the First World War contain many abbreviations and terms, the most common of which are explained here.

The following year they were engaged in covering the siege of Hay, and the only British officer killed during this campaign was Captain Sacheverell of the 14th. In 1695 they were employed at various sieges, notably at that of Naniur, where, as Tidcombe's Foot, they "crowned themselves with glory ;" and throughout the later battles of that year they followed the dashing lead of the gallant Lord Cutts. For the following two or three years they were stationed in Ireland, whence, however, they sent detachments at various times to join the British army in Spain. When Prince Charles Edward made his attempt in 1715 the 14th were summoned to Scotland, and fought as Jaspar Clayton's Foot at Dunblane, and four years later at Glenshiel, where Captains Moore and Heighinton were wounded. In 1727 they went to Gibraltar, of which their Colonel, Jaspar Clayton, was Lieutenant-Governor, and assisted in its successful defence against the Spaniards, remaining there for several years. The 14th were not at Dettingen, but amongst those who fell there was their gallant Colonel, who was on the staff. They fought at Falkirk in 1746 as Price's Foot, and were in the first line in the division of General Cholmondcley.

  • Albury, Ewart Alfred Campbell
    ‘The Baltic Exchange Roll of Honour 1914-1918’ In 2016 the Baltic Exchange kindly agreed to publish this work during the Centenary Remembrances of World War One. The intention was to try and honour and shed some light on the men of the Baltic Exchange who died during World War I and who appear on the Exchange’s War Memorial. I was gratified that so many current and former members of the Exchange Staff were interested in the work. Since 2016 more information and photographs have come to light and are contained within this publication. The Great War inflicted nearly 1 million military war dead on the British Empire. France’s Military lost over 1.3 million. The Baltic’s ‘Roll of Honour’ records 59 men who died in the Service of the British Empire and 2 who died fighting for France. We try and ‘Remember’ them each November 11th but it is now impossible that anyone will personally remember anyone of the 61 names on the Memorial. Some of those on the Memorial have stories which have been accessible and easy to research – others not so. However all deserve our continuing ‘Remembrance’. The impact of 61 deaths on the Baltic community can be imagined by those of us of an age to remember the old Baltic Floor and the close-knit ‘day to day’ relationships. Apart from loss of friends and colleagues the evidence suggests closures / decline and sales of companies as leading company members and sons of ship-owners were lost. A company called ‘The Produce Brokers Co., Ltd’ holds the unenviable record for the highest casualties amongst member companies, losing three of its representatives between 1916 and 1917.
