In the month of April, 1809, eleven officers and five hundred and thirteen non-commissioned officers and men joined the regiment. Many men were also drawn to the colours of the corps by recruiting parties, which were sent to Norwich, Aldborough, and Rochester. On July 4th and 5th, 1809, the xx marched from Colchester, en route to Dover, where the two divisions arrived on the 10th and nth, and were quartered in Dover Castle. The regiment was selected for service with the expedition which was about to proceed to Holland, and it was attached to the brigade of Major-General Graham, which formed part of the reserve commanded by Lieutenant-General Sir John Hope. At daybreak, on July 26th, the regiment marched from Dover to Deal, and embarked on board H.M.S. "Monmouth" at nine a.m.: sailed on the morning of the 28th, and anchored off the Scheldt the same evening.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Lancashire Fusiliers 1939-45 tells for the first time the fascinating story of this regiment during the Second World War. The campaigns in which the eleven battalions of the Fusiliers played their part are famous. After skirmishes during the 'Phoney War' and the traumas of the retreat to the beaches of Dunkirk, the regiment had a vital role in North Africa, Malta, Sicily, Italy and Burma. They fought in the battles of Medjez el Bab, Termoli, Cassino, Monte Ceco, the first Arakan, the relief of Kohima, the second Chindit expedition at 'White City' and Mogaung - but this stark and factual outline does little justice to the dogged determination and bravery, often in appallingly difficult conditions, of the men and officers of the Lancashire Fusiliers. Not forgotten are those units that stayed at home, where unrewarding tasks and the endless waiting for an emergency that never arises can often seem to be a fate worse than actual contact with the enemy." "This lively account, well illustrated with maps and photographs, will be of interest to all military historians - and also to anyone with memories of the regiment, or perhaps even of the campaigns described here."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book MY BIT written by George Ashurst and published by Crowood. This book was released on 2011-10-18 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Ashurst served with the Lancashire Fusiliers, taking part in First Ypres, Gallipoli and the Somme, and enduring months of trench warfare on the Western Front, making numerous grim and dangerous patrols into no man's land. His memoirs vividly reveal the reality of life in the trenches and the feelings of those who had to suffer it. Ashurst was often frightened and uncertain, occasionally infuriated by the 'shirking' amongst the officers, was usually ready for a cigarette or drink, but when his battalion attacked he would not shrink from his duty. My Bit is a fascinating and moving first-hand account of the First World War written by a working-class soldier.

Download or read book History of the XX Regiment 1688-1888 Lancashire Fusiliers written by Lieut Quartermaster Smyth, B. and published by . This book was released on 2014-03 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a regimental history of the Lancashire Fusiliers, one of the greatest names in the British Army for 200 years from its foundation down to 1888. Founded in 1688, the year of William III's Glorious Revolution, the regiment first saw service in the Caribbean before being deployed to defend the Rock of Gibraltar during the great siege. In the War of the Austrian Succession, it took part in the battles of Dettingen and Fontenoy against France; helped suppress Bonnie Prince Charlie's 1745 Jacobite rebellion at Culloden. Probably the Regiment's most famous member was Gen. James Wolfe, and though it missed his great victory at Quebec, the regiment took part in other battles of the Seven Years' War - notably Minden. In the Napoleonic Wars, the Fusiliers were present at Sir John Moore's retreat to Corunna, and in the Peninsular War fought at Vittoria, the Pyrenees, Nivelle and Orthes. During the Crimean War, the regiment fought at all the major battles - the Alma, Balaclava, Inkerman and the Siege of Sebastopol. Almost immediately, the regiment was embarked for India to fight the Mutiny - taking part in the relief of the Siege of Lucknow.
