  • Commemorating the Overseas-Born Victoria Cross Heroes a First World War Centenary Event
    Commemorating the overseas-born Victoria Cross heroes A First World War Centenary event National Memorial Arboretum 5 March 2015 Foreword Foreword The Prime Minister, David Cameron The First World War saw unprecedented sacrifice that changed – and claimed – the lives of millions of people. Even during the darkest of days, Britain was not alone. Our soldiers stood shoulder-to-shoulder with allies from around the Commonwealth and beyond. Today’s event marks the extraordinary sacrifices made by 145 soldiers from around the globe who received the Victoria Cross in recognition of their remarkable valour and devotion to duty fighting with the British forces. These soldiers came from every corner of the globe and all walks of life but were bound together by their courage and determination. The laying of these memorial stones at the National Memorial Arboretum will create a lasting, peaceful and moving monument to these men, who were united in their valiant fight for liberty and civilization. Their sacrifice shall never be forgotten. Foreword Foreword Communities Secretary, Eric Pickles The Centenary of the First World War allows us an opportunity to reflect on and remember a generation which sacrificed so much. Men and boys went off to war for Britain and in every town and village across our country cenotaphs are testimony to the heavy price that so many paid for the freedoms we enjoy today. And Britain did not stand alone, millions came forward to be counted and volunteered from countries around the globe, some of which now make up the Commonwealth. These men fought for a country and a society which spanned continents and places that in many ways could not have been more different.

  • Centenary WW1 Victoria Cross Recipients from Overseas
    First World War Centenary WW1 Victoria Cross Recipients from Overseas www.1914.org WW1 Victoria Cross Recipients from Overseas - Foreword Foreword The Prime Minister, Rt Hon David Cameron MP The centenary of the First World War will be a truly national moment – a time when we will remember a generation that sacrificed so much for us. Those brave men and boys were not all British. Millions of Australians, Indians, South Africans, Canadians and others joined up and fought with Britain, helping to secure the freedom we enjoy today. It is our duty to remember them all. That is why this programme to honour the overseas winners of the Victoria Cross is so important. Every single name on these plaques represents a story of gallantry, embodying the values of courage, loyalty and compassion that we still hold so dear. By putting these memorials on display in these heroes’ home countries, we are sending out a clear message: that their sacrifice – and their bravery – will never be forgotten. 2 WW1 Victoria Cross Recipients from Overseas - Foreword Foreword FCO Senior Minister of State, Rt Hon Baroness Warsi I am delighted to be leading the commemorations of overseas Victoria Cross recipients from the First World War. It is important to remember this was a truly global war, one which pulled in people from every corner of the earth. Sacrifices were made not only by people in the United Kingdom but by many millions across the world: whether it was the large proportion of Australian men who volunteered to fight in a war far from home, the 1.2 million Indian troops who took part in the war, or the essential support which came from the islands of the West Indies.

  • British Military Officers in Teschen 1919
    88 HISTORICA REVUE PRO HISTORII A PŘÍBUZNÉ VĚDY 2020/1 ČLÁNKY A STUDIE 88–108 British Military Officers in Teschen 1919 JIM BEACH Beach, Jim: British Military Officers in Teschen 1919 This article examines the experiences of Britain’s military representatives in the former Habsburg Duchy of Teschen during the sometimes violent turbulence of 1919. It explores the background and selection of these men, their interactions with local politics and society, and the perceptions they formed. Evidence is drawn primarily from their official reports, family letters, and a book written soon afterwards. As external witnesses, their testimony offers a fresh perspective on ethnic conflict in the duchy and Allied attempts to broker a settlement. Key Words British Army; Silesia; Teschen; InterAllied Commission doi.org/10.15452/Historica.2020.11.0006 Contact University of Northampton; [email protected] After returning to his native Scotland, James Roy recorded the evening atmosphere he had observed in a bar near the town centre of Teschen in the spring and summer of 1919: Schultz’s [wine bar] stands in the main street opposite the church, and is frequented by Germans of the better class, by occasional parties of Polish officers, by odds and ends of travellers […] Schultz himself is a stout, close‑cropped, middle ‑aged German, with a com‑ fortable looking, pleasant faced wife; he sits smoking and drinking […] with his particular cronies, till closing time. Angelica, the waitress, a black ‑haired, black ‑eyed, handsome Sile‑ sian girl, with strong pro ‑Czech sympathies, has offended several of her Polish patrons by her outspoken views.1 James had been a member of the InterAllied Commission sent to what had been the Austro ‑Hungarian Duchy of Teschen to resolve a conflict that had exploded into a week‑ ‑long war between Poland and Czechoslovakia at the end of January.2 His vignette of 1 ROY, James: Pole and Czech in Silesia.

  • Happy Odyssey Carton De Wiart Pdf
    Happy odyssey carton de wiart pdf Continue Adrian Boxa de Viart's autobiography is one of the most remarkable war memoirs. He was intended for law but refused to study at Balliol College, Oxford, in 1899 to serve as a soldier in the South African War. Carton de Viart's extraordinary military career was recruited by the Somali Camel Corps (1914-15), a liaison officer with The Polish Troops (1939), membership in the British Military Mission in Yugoslavia (1941), a period as a prisoner of war (1941-43), and three years as Churchill's representative in Chan Kaishi (1943-46). (Churchill was a big fan.) During the Great War, in addition to commanding the 8th Gloucesters, Carton de Viart was a brigade of 12 GOK (1917) and a brigade OF GOC 105 (April 1918). Both of these teams were terminated by wounds. He was wounded eight times during the war (including loss of his eye and arm), won the VC during the Battle of the Somma, was mentioned in the control room six times, and was a model for Brigadier Ben Ritchie Hook in Evelyn Waugh's Sword of Honour trilogy. This article uses a Belgian surname: his surname - Carton de Viart, not an officer of the British Army Viart and the recipient of the Victoria Cross Sir Adrian Carton de Viartton de Viart, pictured here during the First World War as a lieutenant colonel.
