Book excerpt: The Norfolk Regiment (9th Foot) entered the war with two regular, one reserve and three TF battalions (one of the latter, the 6th, was a cyclist battalion); by the end the number had grown to nineteen of which eight went on active service whose losses in dead numbered 5,576. The total number of men raised during the war amounted to 32,375. Seventy battle honours and one VC were awarded, the VC going to Lt Col Sherwood-Kelly while commanding 1st R Inniskilling Fusiliers. The 1st Battalion (apart from a short spell in Italy with the 5th Division), 7th, 8th, 9th served on the Western Front; the 2nd fought in Mesopotamia only and was captured at Kut al Amara in April 1916; the 4th and 5th were at Gallipoli, in Egypt and in Palestine while what became the 12th Battalion (converted Norfolk Yeomanry) went to Gallipoli, Egypt, Palestine and finally France and Belgium for the last few months of the war. In the introduction there is a most useful table showing when and where the 1st, 7th, 8th and 9th Battalions were located on a month by month basis. The accounts of the doings of the several battalions are based mainly on their War Diaries and those of the brigade and division to which they belonged. To supplement these the author has in some cases had personal reminiscences though not as many as hoped. Each battalion is dealt with separately apart from the TF 4th and 5th which are taken together while a variety of Appendices contain information such as succession of colonels and COs with biographical notes, roll of honour of officers, uniforms, arms and badges, Colours and Battle Honours and other regimental and traditional items.

Download or read book The Norfolk Regiment on the Western Front 1914 1918 written by Steve Smith and published by Fonthill Media. This book was released on 2021-12-02 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steve Smith tells the story of the five Battalions of the Norfolk Regiment who served on the Western Front using previously unseen photographs, diaries, accounts, and letters. He has also had full access to the Norfolk Regiment Museum archives. It is the men who served in the Norfolks who will tell this story. This book will interest readers nationally & locally as it not only studies the Regiment’s participation in well-known battles such as Ypres and the Somme, but also takes a fresh look at the lesser-known battles fought, battles such as Elouges in 1914 and Kaiserschlacht in 1918. Steve has considered the German perspective too, looking at the men who faced them at places such as Falfemont Farm in 1916. Using new evidence from the Regiment’s participation in the Christmas Truce, he separates the truth from myth surrounding the stories of football played at this time, a controversy that still rages. Steve has walked the ground over which they fought and fresh maps complement this research so the book serves as a history book for those at home and a guidebook for those who wish to get out and explore, down to trench level, the ground covered in its pages.

This detailed and authoritative history takes the regiment's story up to the outbreak of the Great War in August 1914.
