Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Will be an inspiration to all ranks of the Regiment present and to come" - King George VI In this fascinating Regimental history, Wyrall makes use of the diaries and personal memoirs of those who fought in the Somerset Light Infantry. He also notes that his work was read by many other Generals before final publication, making this a truly collective recollection of the Great War.Concentrating on the strategic planning of the Infantry he reveals the daily grind of the war and the long march to freedom, documenting time spent at Le Cateau and the unforgiving, relentless realities of trench warfare. The Battles of Marne, Aisne, Armenti�res, Ypres, Loos and The Somme are recorded in unprecedented detail as well as the fierce and critical fighting of the Hindenburg Line. Wyrall goes on to describe how the men, exhausted, continued on to Palestine and Jerusalem, culminating in the final advance at Flanders and new, uncertain military horizons in India. Praise for the author: 'It displays the true regimental spirit' - Sir Ivor Maxse'Captain Everard Wyrall is an indefatigable military historian.' - The Spectator 'It is a record of patience and determination, of self-sacrifice and bravery.' - Field Marshal George Francis MilneEverard Wyrall (1878-1933) served in the Boer War, the First World War, and the Third African War. He was an author, journalist, and historian who contributed significantly to the literary commemoration of First World War, compiling extensive official military histories, including, among others, those dedicated to the Somerset Light Infantry, Middlesex Regiment, King's Liverpool Regiment, and West Yorkshire Regiment.

Download or read book Great War 1914-1919 written by E.Stanley Goodland and published by . This book was released on 2003-07-01 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title on the cover is misleading in that it refers to the 1/5th Battalion whereas the book is concerned not only with the 1/5th but also with the 2/5th Battalion. The original battalion (1/5th) was in the 43rd (Wessex) Division and went with it to India in October 1914, and served there till May 1917 when it moved to Egypt. Here it joined the newly formed 233rd Brigade which became part of the 75th Division, a new division and the last to be formed and one which included Indian Army battalions in each brigade. By the end of the war the structure of each brigade was that of an Indian Army division with three Indian/Gurkha and one British battalion. The division, and with it 1/5th Som LI, went to Palestine and took part in the fighting against the Turks. The 2/5th Battalion was formed in September 1914, part of the 45th (2nd Wessex) Division which also sailed for India, in December 1914. The battalion, however, continued on to Burma where it remained till May 1917 when it moved back to India where it saw out the war. Both battalions sent drafts to Mesopotamia and their experiences are recounted in separate chapters. There is a roll of honour for each battalion and a list of honours and awards for each. In the roll of honour of both battalions there is a Private Bellringer; in the case of Charles Henry of 1/5th there is neither place nor date of death which are given for every other individual, while Marcel of 2/5th died in Mesopotamia on 21 December 1915 yet he is not listed among personnel of the draft shown on pages 94/95. Neither are listed in Soldiers Died. The book ends with the roll of officers who served between 1920 and April 1929

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third and final volume in the 274-year old history of one of the British Army s most distinguished infantry regiments narrates its part in the retreat from Empire. In these pages covering the immediate post-Second World War years of 1946-1960, the regiment witnesses the end of the Raj in India; and occupation service in Greece, Austria and Germany. The SLI then fought Communist jungle insurgency in the Malayan Emergency and was mobilised to take part in the abortive Suez operation of 1956. The final chapter in the SLI s story is its amalgamation with the equally distinguished West Country regiment, the Duke of Cornwall s Light Infantry. It is, as Field-Marshal Lord Harding writes in his foreword a proud story of devoted and distinguished service in many different parts of the world . With 18 b&w photos, four maps, 18 appendices, a bibliography and an index.

This book was released on 2015-10-15 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of a typical infantry battalion of a county regiment as they fought their way from the beaches of Normandy to the River Elbe. In the proud words of Lt. Gen. G.I. Thomas, their divisional commander, the 4th Somersets 'Never had a failure and never lost an inch of ground.... they knew they were better men than the Germans and never ceased to show it'.Unusually for an official history of this kind, the book has no single author, but includes contributions from all ranks to build a picture of such hard-fought actions as Hill 112 and Mount PIncon in the Normandy campaign; the heavily contested crossing of the RIver Seine, the 'taking out' of the ancient German town of Cleve, and finally the taking of the north German port city of Bremen. This is the story of the final months of the Second World War in Europe seen through the eyes of the men who won it.
