PEREIRA, K.C.B., C.M.G. + +The history of any New Army battalion is a valuable contribution to +the history of the war. This applies particularly to a battalion like +the 23rd Royal Fusiliers, which achieved a high morale and maintained +excellent discipline throughout the war. + +At the Front our only knowledge of the New Army before they came +overseas was gained from the Brigade Staffs and Commanding Officers of +the new Formations, who were sent over for short attachment to troops +in the line. + +We learnt from them the great difficulties that had to be overcome in +raising new units, with very few officers, warrant officers, and +N.C.O.'s to lead the new force and instruct them in military routine. +Without exception they were filled with admiration of the physique, +intelligence, and spirit of the men who had rushed to arms in those +dark early days of the war. + +It was evidently the flower of the nation that came forward, and +probably in the history of all wars such magnificent material has +never been equalled. + +My acquaintance with the 23rd Battalion Royal Fusiliers extended from +the end of 1916 to March, 1919, when the Battalion left the 2nd +Division, and it is interesting to look back at my first impression of +the Battalion, as I had not previously had any New Army battalions +under my command. Regular battalions have the pride of history to +sustain them, and traditions to live up to, but here I found a +battalion not two years old, with its history in the making, but with +the same spirit and self-consciousness that one finds in the old +formations. + +Those who have not had considerable experience of troops in peace and +war may imagine that regiments are, at all times, sustained by a great +pride in their past, and a determination to live up to it. Alas! in +some cases this spirit dies away in adversity. I have seen the 23rd +Royal Fusiliers in good times and in bad, and I have never found them +downhearted. + +When out for a few weeks' rest and training, in pleasant surroundings, +their work and play were carried out with much life and zest. + +In the fighting in the Cambrai salient, in the Bourlon-Moeuvres +Ridge, on November 30, 1917, when the 2nd Division defeated six +successive attacks on their line, the 23rd Royal Fusiliers at the end +of the day held their line intact. This action was followed two days +later by a withdrawal which was necessary to get us out of a sharp +salient. This entailed very hard work and constant trench fighting, +extending over several days. The troops were very exhausted from the +extremely heavy calls that had been made on them, but after a few +days' rest it was almost incredible how rapidly they had thrown off +their fatigue and how good their spirits were. + +They knew they had killed large numbers of Germans, and had +successfully defeated a German attack which, if successful, would have +been a great disaster for the British. + +A more trying time was the March retreat in 1918. Lieutenant-Colonel +Winter had lost his voice from the effect of several days of very +heavy gas shelling of the Highland Ridge just before the Germans +launched their attack, and he was voiceless for the next ten days. A +large proportion of his Battalion were similarly affected, but time +after time during the retreat they turned and fought, and inflicted +heavy losses on the enemy until they did their share in repelling a +heavy attack at Beaumont Hamel, where the Germans were finally held. + +It was the spirit of such battalions as the 23rd Royal Fusiliers that +broke the German offensive, and the marvellous power of recuperation +that they had, given a few days to rest and sleep. + +In the offensive operations that lasted from August 21, 1918, to the +Armistice, the Battalion delivered many successful attacks with +undiminished dash and courage, and it was a proud day when I saw them +march through the Square in Duren with fixed bayonets, headed by the +few Regimental pipers that had been through the war with them since +their formation. + +Well had they earned their Victory March into Germany, and +Lieutenant-Colonel Winter was justified in his great pride in their +fine appearance and magnificent transport. + +In conclusion I must pay a tribute to the private soldiers, the +non-commissioned officers, and the young officers, who, year in and +year out, faced death and the greatest of hardships with that dogged +courage that has always broken the hearts of our enemies. The saying +that the British soldier never knows when he is beaten has never been +truer than in this war. + +My hope is that histories such as this may have a wide circulation, so +that mothers, wives, and children may know what their men have done +for their country, what dangers they have faced, and what vast +sacrifices they cheerfully made. + + + + +FROM MAJOR-GENERAL R.O. KELLETT, C.B., C.M.G. + +The story of the 23rd Battalion Royal Fusiliers cannot fail to be a +fine one. Every soldier who, like myself, had the honour of fighting, +I may say, shoulder to shoulder with it, will read its history with +the deepest interest. + +As its first Brigadier, I took up that appointment on December 19, +1914, when the Battalion was in its infancy, deficient of arms and +equipment, but full of men whose physique, zeal, and spirit were +magnificent, and this spirit was fully maintained, to the honour and +fame of the Battalion, in the face of the enemy in France during the +winter of 1915-16, and throughout 1916 and 1917, during which time it +was in my (99th) Brigade, which formed part of the 2nd Division. + +Throughout the heavy fighting we went through during this period, the +23rd Battalion Royal Fusiliers never failed me. What they were ordered +to do they did, and more; any objective they seized they held on to, +and never retired from. Few units can boast of as proud a record as +this. + +Many hundreds of their best and bravest made the last sacrifice, but +the splendid gallantry and dogged and cheerful endurance of the +Battalion never lessened. + +I was, and am, a proud man to have had such a Battalion in my Brigade, +a Battalion second to none amongst those who fought for the Empire in +the Great War. + + + + ++-----------------------------------------------------+ +| FORMATION OF THE BATTALION, THE HONOURS GAINED, AND | +| ITS RECORD IN BRIEF | ++-----------------------------------------------------+ + + + + +FORMATION OF THE BATTALION, THE HONOURS GAINED, +AND ITS RECORD IN BRIEF + +RAISED IN LONDON IN 1914 BY MRS E.

Public +Schools battalions, the Chums, the Footballers, and other battalions +were formed. But to the First Sportsman's belongs the honour of +introducing an actually new type. + +To begin with, it was cosmopolitan. Practically every grade of life +was represented, from the peer to the peasant; class distinctions were +swept away, every man turned to and pulled his bit. To illustrate what +is meant one hut of thirty men at Hornchurch may be mentioned. + +In this hut the first bed was occupied by the brother of a peer. The +second was occupied by the man who formerly drove his motor-car. Both +had enlisted at the same time at the Hotel Cecil, had passed the +doctor at the same time at St. Paul's Churchyard, and had drawn their +service money when they signed their papers. Other beds in this hut +were occupied by a mechanical engineer, an old Blundell School boy, +planters, a mine overseer from Scotland, a man in possession of a +flying pilot's certificate secured in France, a photographer, a +poultry farmer, an old sea dog who had rounded Cape Horn on no fewer +than nine occasions, a man who had hunted seals, "with more patches on +his trousers than he could count," as he described it himself, a bank +clerk, and so on. + +It must not be thought that this hut was an exceptional one. Every hut +was practically the same, and every hut was jealous of its reputation. +Scrubbing day was on Saturdays as a rule, and it was then that the +"un-char-lady" side of various men came out. They were handling +brooms, scrubbing-brushes, and squeegees for the first time in their +lives, but they stuck it, and, with practice making perfect, it was +surprising to what a pitch of cleanliness things eventually got. + +Even church parade has been dodged on a Sunday morning in order that +three pals might unite in an effort to get the stoves blacked, the +knives and forks polished, and a sheen put on the tea-pails. + +One may smile about these things now when in civilian life again, but +it was all very real at the time. The First Sportsman's were not +coddled; no man thought twice about getting in a terrible mess when +domestic duties had to be performed. The only kick came when the hut +windows had to be cleaned with old newspapers. The man who had +forgotten to wash the old cloths or buy new ones came in for a +terrible time. + +Rivalry, perfectly friendly in character, was great in the earlier +days before chums began to be split up as the result of taking +commissions. If we were digging trenches "somewhere in Essex," our +particular sector had to be completed quicker and be more finished in +character than any other. Jobs were done at the double if it were +thought to be necessary; if any man developed a tendency to take a +rest at too frequent intervals--well, he was ticked off in the most +approved fashion. It all made for the good of the whole. The N.C.O. in +charge had an easy time, he hadn't to drive a man. All he had to do +was to see that in over-eagerness his working party did not take +risks. + +But the time came when the calculations upon securing a commission +began to make their appearance. It may be some men were approached on +the matter, or that others thought they would get to the Front more +quickly as individual officers than as members of the Battalion (as +indeed proved the case in many instances), but certain it is that the +Colonel began to be inundated with applications to apply for +permission. + +Whilst freely recommending all suitable applications, the Colonel, in +order to keep up the strength of the Battalion, made a rule that an +applicant was to supply two other recruits to the Battalion of a +certain height and of absolute physical fitness. + +Naturally this was conformed with, and the recruiting sergeants round +Whitehall were all the richer for it. So, too, were the recruits, and +everyone was satisfied. If one man went two others took his place. + + [Illustration: FIRST INSPECTION OF BATTALION: HYDE PARK, + OCTOBER, 1914. + To face p. 20] + +Finally, as it was found that men constantly leaving was interfering +with the internal organization of the companies, a special company was +formed of all those waiting for their commission papers to come +through. + +This company, "E," proved the friendly butt of all the others, one wag +even going so far as to christen it the "Essex Beagles," alleging they +did not "parade," but "met"! + +So, in order to free the others for harder training this company +provided very nearly all the fatigue parties for the camp. + +Still, this didn't matter. It just gave the budding officers a chance +to show what they were capable of. On several occasions a member of +"E" Company proved he was more than a little useful with his hands +when it came to a matter of treating things from a physical point of +view and cutting the cheap wit out. The fatigues were also done +without a murmur, that was another point of honour, and although the +available strength of the company was dwindling day by day, "grousing" +about extra work was conspicuous by its absence. + +There was a funny side about this dwindling of the strength, too. Men +would be on the morning parade, and not on that later in the day. The +explanation was a simple one. Their papers had come through. A man +would walk out through the gates and be pulled up by the sentry. + +"What about your pass?" the latter would ask. + +"Got my discharge," would be the reply. + +"Got a commission?" + +"Yes." + +"Good luck, old chap. I'm getting my papers to-morrow." + +So, many of the original members of the First Sportsman's Battalion +were scattered about on every front in their various regiments. +Walking through the Rue Colmar, Suez, one day I met my old company +officer, then in the Royal Flying Corps. At Sidi Bishr, on the banks +of the Mediterranean, I met another. A fellow-sergeant in the +Battalion came up in the Rue Rosetta, Alexandria, and claimed me. + +Out beyond the Bitter Lakes, east of the Suez Canal, I met an old +Sportsman who had been a fellow-corporal with me. Back of the Somme, a +prominent West Country Sportsman shouted a greeting to me from the +Artillery. He still remembered rousing the camp at Hornchurch one +night by sounding a hunting horn. + +In an Artillery Captain in the Hebuterne sector I recognized another +member--a Machine-Gun officer rolled up smilingly on the way up the +line, and, finest time of all, I had nearly a whole day with what was +left of the old crowd when they were resting after Delville Wood. + +Friendships made in the First Sportsman's Battalion were not easily +broken. We are out of it now, but--once a Sportsman, always a +Sportsman. That, at least, has been my experience. + +And it must not be forgotten that to Mrs. Cunliffe-Owen is due the +credit of conceiving the idea of a battalion formed of men over the +then enlistment age, who, by reason of their life as sportsmen, were +fit and hard. Approaching the War Office, she obtained permission to +raise a special battalion of men up to the age of forty-five. This was +how the Sportsman's Battalion was actually brought into being. + + + + ++-----------------------------------------------------+ +| TRAINING AT HOME--HOW THE FINISHED SOLDIER EMERGED | +| FROM THE ROUGH MATERIAL | ++-----------------------------------------------------+ + + + + +TRAINING AT HOME--HOW THE FINISHED SOLDIER EMERGED +FROM THE ROUGH MATERIAL + + +Formed almost as soon as the war broke out in 1914, the First +Sportsman's Battalion may have provoked some criticism. It was +uncertain at first as to what branch of the service it was to +represent. Personally I thought it was to be mounted, and I was not +alone in this idea either. More than a few of us got busy at once in +settling how, if possible, we could provide our own mounts. That was +in the days when we were new to war, long before we began to know what +something approaching the real thing was. + +Recruiting went on briskly at the Hotel Cecil, London, where Mrs. +Cunliffe-Owen and her staff worked hard and late. Lieutenant-Colonel +Winter, then Second-Lieutenant Winter, with his ledger-like book and +his green-baize-covered table, was a familiar figure. So, too, was the +tailor who had been entrusted with the task of fitting us out with our +uniforms. He, poor man, was soon in trouble. The stock sizes could be +secured, but stock sizes were at a discount with the majority of the +men who first joined up. They wanted outside sizes, and very +considerable outside sizes, too, for the average height was a little +over six feet, and the chest measurements in proportion. + +Still, we recognized that these things had to be, and we kept on with +a smile and a joke for everything. Perhaps we had a pair of army +trousers and a sports-coat. Perhaps we had a pair of puttees, and the +rest of the costume was our own. It didn't matter. It was good enough +to parade in off the Embankment Gardens. It was good enough to route +march in through the London streets. And the traffic was always +stopped for us when we came home up the Strand, and proceeded down the +steps by the side of "the Coal Hole" to the "dismiss." Rude things +might be said to us by the crowd, but there was a warm spot in their +hearts for us. We just carried on. + +Bit by bit we were provided with our uniforms, and we began to fancy +ourselves as the real thing. We began to make new friends, and we were +drawn closer to those we knew. We came from all over the world. At the +call men had come home from the Far East and the Far West. A man who +had gone up the Yukon with Frank Slavin, the boxer; another who had +been sealing round Alaska; trappers from the Canadians woods; railway +engineers from the Argentine; planters from Ceylon; big-game hunters +from Central Africa; others from China, Japan, the Malay States, +India, Egypt--these were just a few of the Battalion who were ready +and eager to shoulder a rifle, and do their bit as just common or +garden Tommies. The thought of taking a commission did not enter our +minds at the start. Every man was eager to get on with the work, with +but a dim thought of what it was going to be like, but worrying not a +bit about the future. + +In a few weeks the Battalion had learnt how to form fours, to wheel, +and to maintain a uniformity of step. Every man was desperately keen; +to be late for parade was a great big sin. And this despite the fact +that every man had to come into London from all parts of the suburbs, +and farther out than that in many instances, by train (paying his own +fare) every morning. + +So the time went on. Then came the news that we were to go into camp +at the Grey Towers, Hornchurch, Essex, and next came the formation of +a fatigue party to go on ahead and get things ready for the reception +of the Battalion. There was a rush to get into this party as soon as +the news went round. Everyone was eager to do something fresh, and, +after all, we didn't know what fatigues were in those days. So the +party went on ahead. + +We who were left kept on with our drills; we even did physical jerks +on the slopes of Savoy Street, Strand. Then came the news that we were +to march away. That bucked everybody up tremendously, for, to tell the +truth, we were really beginning to get tired of the London life. Some +of us, who had seen life in various parts of the world previously, +were sighing again for the open air. All of us were thinking it was +really time we did something to justify our existence. We did not +claim to be show soldiers; we wanted to get at it. + + [Illustration: MARCHING AWAY FROM HYDE PARK TO ENTRAIN FOR + HORNCHURCH. + To face p. 28] + +All things come to those who wait, however. We were to move to +Hornchurch--the first step to active service. We had our uniforms, we +even had white gloves, and at last we fell in, by the Hotel Cecil, +with a band at our head, and off we went. Funnily enough, some of us +felt this break with London more than we felt anything afterwards. It +was really our first introduction to "the Great Unknown." + +Had the Guards been marching away they could not have had a greater +and a more enthusiastic send-off. The streets of the City were packed; +it was a struggle to get through. At Liverpool Street we were reduced +to a two-deep formation, and even then it became a case of shouldering +your way through those who had gathered to wish us "God speed." But we +were entrained at last; we detrained at Romford, and we marched to +Hornchurch. We were in the camp. + +OUR FIRST SURPRISE.--That's when we had the first surprise sprung upon +us, for we learnt that the camp would be our home for a whole solid +fourteen days. No one was to be allowed to go into the village; we +were to begin our course of instruction in discipline. There were a +few heart-burnings, but nothing more. The Battalion played up to its +ideal. + +We were drilled early and late; we were instructed in the art of guard +mounting; we peeled potatoes in the cookhouse; we fetched coal from +the quartermaster's stores; we fell in to get our rations from the +cookhouse; and last, but not least, we began to grouse. That was our +first advance to becoming real soldiers. At least, so the author was +told by an old N.C.O. who had marched with Roberts to Kabul, and who +was again in the Service, too aged to do more than to instruct, but +not too aged to do that well. + +Hard work and plain but plentiful food soon made the Battalion as hard +as nails, a phrase coined by the London _Evening News_, and a phrase +that stuck. Quite as important, too, was the fact that a member of the +"hard as nails" Battalion had to prove he was capable of acting up to +it. So it was just a matter of honour that every man should keep off +the sick parades, and not come home in the ambulance when a long route +march or a field day was indulged in. + +This took a bit of doing sometimes, for there was no mercy shown us. +We said we wanted the real thing, and, between ourselves, we got it. A +march of seven miles to the scene of operations, a hard field day, and +a march of seven miles home again, with pack, rifle, and full +equipment in other ways, was our lot. We began to recognize that we +were really soldiers, and we patted ourselves on the back. + +Sport, too, played a very big part in our training. The Army of to-day +recognizes the fact that athletics makes and keeps our youngsters fit +and well. Our Colonel recognized it from the start, and as we had +plenty of material to work upon we went right away with it. We had a +"soccer" team, a "rugger" team, and a cricket eleven. The records of +the matches we won, and the fact that very few defeats were notched up +against us, proves we had a perfect right to style ourselves "the +First Sportsman's Battalion, the 23rd (Service) Battalion Royal +Fusiliers." + + [Illustration: THE CAMP: HORNCHURCH.] + + [Illustration: INTERIOR OF A HUT: HORNCHURCH. + To face p. 30] + +Scullers, footballers, boxers, runners, wrestlers, actors, musicians, +artists--all these could be had for the asking, and we drew upon them +liberally. We were given plenty of opportunities to indulge in our +passion for sport in the ordinary way, but the private who once asked +for leave in order to go grouse shooting didn't get it. It was +suggested he might put in a little time at the rifle range instead. No +restrictions, however, were put upon any early morning running +matches, and the football and cricket teams were helped in every way. + +To get back to the purely military side, however. We groused at the +amount of drills and night operations, to being hut orderlies, going +on guard, and so on. But we did them as a means to an end. Then we had +the rudest shock of all. We learnt we were to embark on the task of +digging trenches--somewhere in Essex! That put the lid on things, so +we considered. We, infantry soldiers, to dig trenches! It couldn't be +right. We thought the Engineers, or the Pioneers, or somebody else, +always did that. Our job was to carry a rifle, and to shoot Germans. +That's how the rank and file looked at it in the first place. Of +course they discovered other things when the Battalion got to France, +but that's another story. + +However, it had to be done and, like everything else, it _was_ done. +After an early breakfast, the company detailed fell in and marched off +to the station. After a while, a special train arrived and we +scrambled in. In the interim, it may be mentioned, packed trains +proceeding cityward went by, the passengers cheering us. That passed +the time if it did nothing else. + +Nearly an hour in the train, a march of perhaps a couple of miles, and +we reached our objective. Mysterious personages, with a big "G.R." in +gold on scarlet armlets popped up from somewhere, produced plans, and +informed our Company Officer that trenches had to be dug at such and +such a place. As a rule it was somewhere where the water from an +adjacent brook would percolate through the earth and make things +uncomfortable. That's by the way, though, and after all it was good +practice, this working out a method of trench drainage on our own. As +a matter of fact we had a lot of Civil and Colonial Engineers in our +ranks, and so we put all the mistakes made by the others right. +Whenever possible, of course. One or two things, it must be admitted, +beat us. + +Sometimes it rained, sometimes it snowed, occasionally, very +occasionally, it happened to be fine. But we got on with our work, +waiting for the bugler to blow for the midday lunch. When "cookhouse" +went we straightened our backs, got _some_ of the mud off our boots, +and proceeded to take what the gods (in this case the quartermaster) +were good enough to give us. We always had two guesses, and we were +always right. It was either bread and cheese, or bread and bully. If +we were fortunate we might be able to purchase beer at a local +hostelry, or Oxo at a village shop. If not so fortunate, the +waterbottle or, if again lucky, a pocket-flask was brought into +service. + +THE KINDLY SHOPKEEPER.--Digressing for a moment, though, it may be +mentioned that the various shopkeepers were always very, very good to +us! They always supplied us with what we needed, if they had it, and +they never put the prices up to us! At least, not much. For instance, +if a resident could buy a pair of bootlaces for a penny, we were only +occasionally charged more than threepence. Other things were in +proportion, and Essex to-day has quite a lot of nice new shops, +unknown before the advent of the First Sportsman's Battalion. It is +pleasing to remember that a Navvy Battalion followed us! + +To resume the trench digging. As we were later complimented on the +quality of the work we did, we must have shone in the way of handling +the pick and the spade. At the end of our labours, when the "fall in" +was sounded, we were quite ready to say we were looking forward to a +hot meal in our huts in camp, where, outside, the breezes whispered +through the branches of the trees lining the drive, where the moon +silvered the tin roofs of our living quarters, and all was bright and +jolly--in the sergeants' mess! + +So time sped away, and still we kept on wondering if we were +forgotten. We sat by the fires in "stoves, hot, combustion slow," and +we told the tale of the two highly placed War Office officials who +were discussing the war years after it had finished. One had asked the +other how the Sportsman's Battalion had shaped in "the Great +Adventure," and then would come the climax. "Good God!" the other +would say, "I've forgotten them. They're still at Hornchurch!" + +All things have to come to a finish though, and so we found. We had +night attacks, some three and four day route marches, even a +recruiting march through Barking and its neighbourhood, we did our +shooting tests, got through our bayonet exercises, had battalion drill +in the early mornings, with a fair amount of ceremonial drill thrown +in as a makeweight, and then came the rumour that a real big move was +to be made, such a move that the departure for the Front could not be +long delayed. + +This was the move to Clipstone Camp for brigade training. We had heard +so many rumours previously that we did not believe this, the latest, +at first. But it was correct, and at last the Battalion, formed up in +hollow square, was found on the parade ground at Grey Towers, where +the Rector of Hornchurch bade us God speed and good cheer. + +A few days later the Battalion, leaving two companies behind as depot +companies, entrained at Hornchurch for the new camp at Clipstone. + +There it went through brigade training, was equipped with its +regimental transport, and afterwards moved to Candahar Barracks, +Tidworth, to undergo divisional training with the 33rd Division, of +which it formed a part. + +Finally, after being reviewed with the Division by Queen Mary, acting +in place of His Majesty the King, who was suffering from his accident +sustained in France, all was in readiness for the next and biggest +move of all. + + + + ++-----------------------------------------------------+ +| SERVICE OVERSEAS--HEAVY FIGHTING ALL ALONG THE | +| FRONT, AND A TRIUMPHAL MARCH INTO GERMANY | ++-----------------------------------------------------+ + + + + +SERVICE OVERSEAS--HEAVY FIGHTING ALL ALONG THE +FRONT, AND A TRIUMPHAL MARCH INTO GERMANY + + +The day of the move overseas arrived. This was on November 15, 1915, +when the regimental transport entrained at Tidworth for Havre, +followed one day later by the Battalion, which proceeded to +Folkestone, Boulogne being reached on November 17, Ostrohove Rest Camp +being the first objective. No time, however, was wasted there, for on +November 18 the Battalion entrained at Pont-de-Briques, joining the +transport which had come up from Havre. + +It was at Steenbecque, reached a day later, and where billets were +found in barns and farmhouses, that the sound of artillery in action +was first heard by the Battalion. Four days were occupied here in +sorting things out generally, the companies parading, route marching, +and being inspected. + +On November 23 a move was made to Busnes, the first part of the route +being over badly cut up second-class roads, and the remainder on pavé. +The men, the war diary tells us, marching in greatcoats, and carrying +blankets, found the march very trying. Billets in the area La +Miquellerie were reached at 3 p.m. Distance, 11½ miles. + +Then came a very important thing from a soldier's point of view. Pay +was drawn from the Field Cashier, and distributed for the first time +in France. Next came the notification that in conformation with the +policy of re-forming the 33rd and the 2nd Divisions by forming +brigades, each consisting of two new battalions and two regular +battalions, the 99th Brigade was to lose the 17th and 24th Battalions +Royal Fusiliers, receive the 1st Royal Berks and the 1st King's Royal +Rifle Corps and join the 2nd Division. + +On November 25 the Battalion paraded to march to their new billets at +Bethune, being inspected _en route_ by General Walker and the Staff of +the 2nd Division. General Walker's opinion was that the 23rd Royal +Fusiliers was one of the best battalions he had seen in Bethune. + +Still moving, on November 26 the Battalion marched to Annequin, Fosse +9, and owing to the road being frequently shelled, orders were given +that seventy-pace intervals should be kept between platoons east of +Beuvry. To improve matters, it may be mentioned, there was a heavy +fall of snow, and in the portion of the village south of La Basse the +majority of the houses were in ruins, the result of frequent +bombardments by the enemy. + +Then began the first experience of the Battalion in warfare. Before +being trusted to hold a line by itself it had to serve an +apprenticeship. This was done by attaching, in the first place, +platoons, then companies, and then the half-battalion to battalions in +the line in order to learn the work and what was expected of them. + +During this time much kindness was experienced from the regular +battalions to which the attachments were made. The units of the +Battalion not doing attachment duty were used for working parties in +the trenches and suffered several casualties. No. 2 platoon, right +flank company, specially suffered, being caught by shrapnel fire on +the Bethune-La Basse road, ten N.C.O.'s and men being wounded. + +On December 10 instruction in the use of the gas helmet was given. +Every man was required to pass through a hut sprayed with chlorine gas +ten times as strong as would be used on ordinary occasions, General +Kellett being present while this was being carried out, and himself +going through the test. + +So things went on until December 19. On that date the Battalion +marched to Cambrin support point to relieve the 1st Royal Berks and +take over a sector "on its own." In the trenches, No. 1 Company was on +the right, adjoining the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps, No. 2 Company +on the left, adjoining the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, No. 3 +Company was in the centre, and No. 4 Company was in support at +Annequin (Fosse). + +It was a very busy time, for No. 3 Company held command of the sap +head at New Crater, a spot where German snipers were particularly +troublesome. A gas attack was ordered upon the enemy, but, much to the +disappointment of the officers and men, it proved a "wash-out" owing +to the breeze dying down at the last moment. On December 21, however, +as the wind was favourable, a gas attack took place on a front of +about a mile. It was on this day that Captain Cameron, of No. 1 +Company, was wounded in the arm by a piece of high-explosive while +entering the front line. + +Then the Battalion, less No. 4 Company, was relieved by the 1st Royal +Berks, and proceeded to reserve billets at Annequin (Fosse) on +December 22. Not for complete rest, though, as it is generally +understood by the civilian, for working parties had to be detailed; +indeed, on December 24 all four companies were out, less sick and +those on duty. And, says the war diary, no straw was provided for the +billets, no coke, coal, or wood for the drying-room, and no facilities +for drying or cleaning clothes. + +CHRISTMAS DAY IN THE TRENCHES--On Christmas Day the Battalion paraded +for trench duty to relieve the 1st Royal Berks, the trenches taken +over being the same as were occupied on December 19-22, with the +alteration in disposition that made No. 4 Company replace No. 3 +Company in the centre. + +There was also a special bombardment on this day, and the Battalion's +first patrol, consisting of four men and an officer, went over the +parapet, being out in No Man's Land for an hour. During that time the +party located a sniper's post, cut out some wire from the enemy's +entanglements, and were persistently sniped at themselves, while great +difficulty was experienced in maintaining direction. + +Then, on Boxing Day, Colonel Lord Maitland was wounded in the knee by +a piece of high-explosive while proceeding to the 99th Brigade +Headquarters via Cambrin Church. + +The German snipers continued their activity, there were intermittent +bombardments, several casualties were sustained, and on December 29 +the Battalion was relieved by the 18th Royal Fusiliers. Owing to the +bad state of the trenches this relief did not take place until 5.10 +p.m., although it was due to be effected at 3 p.m. + +Still, the Battalion got back to its billets at Annequin (Fosse), and +on December 30 marched back to Busnettes for sixteen days' divisional +rest. Owing to the very arduous work which had been done since +December 19, on this occasion no packs were carried, and only three +men fell out in a tiring march of 11¼ miles. + + +1916. + +The New Year opened quietly, the usual rest-time routine of kit +inspection, squad drill, route marching, and so on, being indulged in, +a draft coming up from the base on January 7, while on January 11 the +first leave for officers commenced. Then came a move, and on January +19 the Battalion marched to Le Touret, relieving the 6th Queen's +Regiment, the 99th Infantry Brigade taking over a sector of the front +at Festubert from the 37th Infantry Brigade. + + [Illustration: LT.-COL. H.A. VERNON, D.S.O. + To face p. 42] + +On January 22 the Battalion relieved the 1st Royal Berks, "B" Company +being in reserve in the old British line, "A" Company in support in +Richmond Trench, "C" Company in front line Cover Trench and Islands, +and "D" Company in front line Orchard Trench. The front line and +support line garrisons, it may be noted, had to take up their +positions over the top, and so could not be visited in daylight. The +position remained the same until the then Kaiser's birthday, on +January 27, when although the order for relief was given at 6 p.m., a +"stand to" was ordered in anticipation of an attack. + +This did not come off, and, the relief by the 24th Royal Fusiliers +being effected, the Battalion marched back to Bethune on January 28, +where the billets were inspected by General Kellett. + +On January 29 Colonel Lord Maitland relinquished the command of the +Battalion, temporary command being taken by Major Richey, D.S.O., and +Lieutenant-Colonel H.A. Vernon (1st King's Royal Rifle Corps) assumed +command on January 31, while Lieutenant Cooper was appointed +machine-gun officer in place of Lieutenant Lewis, who had been +wounded. + +Le Quesnoy was the next move, made on February 3, and relieving the +1st Royal Berks on February 7, the Battalion was in turn moved out of +the trenches into the village line Givenchy on the 11th, remaining +there until the 15th, when it again relieved the 1st Royal Berks in B3 +sub-sector Givenchy. On the 17th the Battalion was relieved by the +16th Royal Welsh Fusiliers and moved to Le Quesnoy, remaining there +until the 27th, when it proceeded to Barlin. On February 28 another +move was made to Petit Sains, relieving the 22nd Royal Fusiliers, and +on the 29th the Battalion took over the Souchez North sector of +trenches from the French 77th Infantry Regiment. + +From March 1 to March 13 the Battalion held the line at Souchez North +in turn with the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps and on the latter date +proceeded to billets at Noulette, returning again to the trenches on +the 17th, the Battalion on the left being the 17th Royal Fusiliers, +and on the right the 1st Royal Berks. Then on March 28 it moved to La +Comte for divisional rest. + +Reclinghem was the next move, made on April 9, and on April 11 there +was a Brigade field day, another reinforcing draft arriving on the +same day. Then on the night of April 21-22 the Battalion relieved the +1st King's Royal Rifle Corps in the Souchez second sector of the line. +So the end of the month arrived with alternate duty in the trenches +and rest in billets. + +More reinforcements, to replace wastage, arrived in the early part of +May, and on the 23rd the Battalion was in the trenches at Berthouval, +marching to its billets at Camblain l'Abbé on May 30. Working parties +were naturally provided for the trenches while the Battalion was +resting, and two men were accidentally wounded on the 4th. But things +were moderately quiet until the night of June 10-11. On that date the +Battalion relieved the 17th Middlesex Regiment in the Carency left +sector of the front. + +On June 21 Lieutenant-Colonel Vernon was wounded whilst visiting a sap +head held by Jerry Delaney, the boxer, Major H.V. Pirie assuming +command of the Battalion until he returned to duty. The Battalion was +relieved by the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps on the night of June +22-23, and proceeded to billets at Villiers aux Bois. The next move, +on the 27th, was made to Estrée Cauchie. + +THE SOMME FIGHTING.--Then came the move to the Somme and the July of +1916, when the average life of the infantry subaltern in France was +only worth three weeks. Many, indeed, were killed within a week of +their crossing the Channel, on the very first day of entering the +trenches and taking part in the British advance. The 23rd Royal +Fusiliers were engaged in the whole of the desperate fighting on the +Somme, including the battle of Delville Wood, the story of which is +told in another part of this volume. + +Following this bath of blood, on August 1 the Battalion left Bund +support trench, two companies going to Longueval Alley, and two +remaining to garrison and dig trenches at Montauban. + +Becoming united again, on the 29th the Battalion, under the +impression that it was going out for a promised rest after its battle, +moved to The Citadel, Sandpit Valley, and on to Mericourt l'Abbé; +thence on to Fremont (passing through Amiens), Naours, Longuevillette, +Authie, and Bus les Artois; and next, instead of the longed-for rest, +found itself back in the trenches again at Hebuterne, relieving the +1st Coldstream Guards! + +September was spent in the Hebuterne sector, and October saw many +moves. Starting with Coieneux (Basin Wood) the Battalion was at the +Redan (Serre sector), Mailly-Maillet (where the church, it will be +remembered, had been protected by means of fascines), Raincheval, and +Acheux Wood, where the rail-head and the factory with its tall chimney +were bombed heavily from the air and shelled by the German heavies. +Finally, on October 30, the Battalion relieved the 2nd Highland Light +Infantry in the Redan right sub-sector, being in the trenches there +when the month drew to a close. + +November saw the Battalion taking its part in the Battle of Beaumont +Hamel. Told by the War Diary this month's events were: + + November 1.--Battalion in Redan right sub-sector. + + November 2.--Battalion relieved by the 1st King's Royal Rifle + Corps, and proceeded to billets at Mailly-Maillet. + + November 3-4.--Battalion in billets, providing working and + carrying parties. + + November 5.--Battalion relieved 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps + in Redan right sub-sector. + + November 6.--Battalion in Redan right sub-sector. + + November 7.--Battalion relieved by 24th Royal Fusiliers and + proceeded to billets at Bertrancourt. + + November 8-12.--Battalion in billets, providing working and + carrying parties. + + November 13.--Battalion left Bertrancourt at 2.10 a.m., and + proceeded to Ellis Square, Fort Hoystead, and View Trench + (Redan right sub-sector). "A" and "C" Companies sent at 10.10 + a.m. to G.O.C. 5th Brigade at White City. These companies + proceeded later to the old German front line, and at 5 p.m. + "C" Company was ordered up to reinforce the 2nd Highland Light + Infantry in Green Line. + + "B" and "D" Companies at 7 p.m. carried the German second + line. During this time, these companies were under the command + of G.O.C. 8th Infantry Brigade. At 7 p.m. Battalion + Headquarters moved to White City. + + November 14.--1st King's Royal Rifle Corps at 3 a.m. also + established Headquarters at White City. At 6 a.m. Battalion + moved forward in support of 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps and + 1st Royal Berks. "A" and "C" Companies proceeded to Crater + Lane, and later to Wagon Road (on right). "B" and "D" + Companies (on left) took up position in Lager Alley, between + the Oxford and Bucks Light Infantry and the 1st Royal Berks. + + November 15.--At 1 a.m. Battalion Headquarters moved from + White City to Headquarters of 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps in + German front line. Companies still in support of 1st King's + Royal Rifle Corps and 1st Royal Berks. + + November 16.--Battalion at 1 a.m. moved back to Ellis Square. + + November 17.--Battalion moved to billets in Mailly-Maillet. + + November 18.--Battalion moved to billets at Sarton. + + November 19.--Battalion marched to billets at Gezancourt. + + November 20.--Battalion in billets at Gezancourt. + + November 21.--Battalion marched to billets at Candas. + + November 22.--Battalion in billets at Candas. + + November 23.--Battalion marched to billets at Domqueur. + + November 24.--Battalion marched to billets at Gapennes. + + November 25.--Battalion marched to billets at Millencourt. + + November 26.--Battalion in billets at Millencourt. + + November 27.--Battalion marched to billets at Oneux. + + November 28-29-30.--Battalion in billets at Oneux. + +The following month, December, the Battalion also spent in rest at +Oneux. + + +1917. + +On January 9 a move was made from Oneux to Candas, to Beauquesne on +the 11th, to Bouzincourt on the 13th, and to Aveluy on the 20th. From +there it went into the trenches at Courcelette, "A" and "C" Companies +being in the front line, and "B" and "D" in support. + +On February 1 the Battalion moved from Courcelette to Ovillers Huts, +and on the 5th went on to Senlis, moving to Wolfe Huts on the 15th, +and into the line for operations a day later. + +Intense cold was experienced at this time. The ground, like iron, was +covered with snow. The frost was intense, one man being actually +frozen stiff at his post on sentry, and drinking water carried to the +front line arrived as lumps of ice, from which bits were chipped for +eating. + +An attack on the German trenches was made on February 17. Unluckily a +day before the attack the frost gave way, a very rapid thaw set in, +making No Man's Land deep and heavy with slush and mud. Moving to the +attack over such ground was terrible; the objective line was reached, +but the following casualties were sustained: + + Officers killed 8 + " wounded 4 + " missing 1 + --- + 13 + + Other ranks killed 30 + " wounded 165 + " missing 32 + --- + 227 + +The Battalion held the Red Line on February 18, and in the night was +relieved and moved to Ovillers Huts again. On the 24th it moved to +Bruce Huts, and on the 26th to Albert, returning to Ovillers Huts on +the 27th. + +March 5 found the Battalion back in the trenches at Courcellette, and +on the 10th "D" Company cooperated with the 1st Royal Berks and the +1st King's Royal Rifle Corps in an attack on Grevillers Trench and +Lady's Leg Ravine, taking the ravine, killing about 20 of the enemy, +and capturing 30 men and 2 machine guns. The casualties of the company +amounted to 7 other ranks killed, 26 wounded, 1 accidentally wounded, +and 2 died later from their wounds. + +The following day the Battalion moved to Wolfe Huts, and on the 19th +to Albert again, proceeding from there to Contay, Amplier, Bonnières, +Framecourt, Aumerval, and Bailleul les Pernes. + +VIMY RIDGE.--From Bailleul les Pernes the Battalion moved up to +Larosette, behind Vimy Ridge, ready to go in and take over a part of +the Ridge after its capture in the coming battle for its possession. +On the night of April 11, in a blinding snowstorm, the Battalion +relieved the 1/5th Gordons on the captured Ridge, and on the 13th +continued the advance to the line of the railway, captured the village +of Bailleul, established a line on the enemy side of it, and sent out +patrols to Oppy, which was found to be very strongly held by the +enemy. + + [Illustration: _Swaine, photo._ + LT.-COL. E.A. WINTER, D.S.O., M.C. + To face p. 50] + +Owing to a mistaken order, one platoon of "C" Company actually +advanced on Oppy to capture it, but were themselves taken prisoners +after severe fighting. During this advance one 77mm., two field guns, +and one 4.2 howitzer were captured, and whilst moving forward, at the +Colonel's side, to the railway embankment, the Adjutant of the +Battalion, Captain Lissaman, was killed by an enemy shell. + +Being relieved on the 14th by the 1st Royal Berks, the Battalion moved +into support and reserve lines, but on the 18th were in the trenches +west of Ecurie, moving to a tent camp on the Roclincourt-Maison-Blanche +road on the 22nd. Another move, to Maroeil, was made on April 23, and +on the 25th the 17th Royal Fusiliers were relieved in the trenches west +of Bailleul. + +On April 29, at 4 a.m., "B" Company took part in an attack on Oppy by +the 1st Royal Berks and the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps, and then the +Battalion moved back into reserve trenches. + +On May 1 a composite battalion was formed of two companies of the 23rd +Royal Fusiliers and two companies of the 1st Royal Berks, and moved +forward to a position in front of Oppy to deliver an attack on the +Oppy-Fresnoy line. + +Attacking on March 3, Fresnoy trench was captured with between sixty +and seventy prisoners and a machine gun. Heavy counter-attacks were +made by the Germans during the day, and, in view of these and the +retirement of the troops on the right, it became necessary to retire +along Fresnoy trench. At 3.30 a.m., on the night of May 3-4, the +Battalion was relieved by the 15th Warwicks, and moved back to disused +enemy trenches in the Roclincourt area, the total casualties sustained +being 7 officers and 122 other ranks. + +On May 5 Lieutenant-Colonel Vernon having proceeded on leave, Major +E.A. Winter assumed command, and on May 24 Lt.-Colonel Vernon having +to report to the War Office on promotion to Brigadier-General, Major +Winter was promoted Lieutenant-Colonel, and appointed to the command +of the Battalion. On the same day the Battalion moved into the line +again, relieving first the 1st Royal West Kents, and then the 22nd +Royal Fusiliers. + +June 1 saw the Battalion relieved by the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps +in the front line (Oppy-Arleux line), and moved back to Deutscher +House and Thelus Wood, working parties for the front line being +provided each night. On the 4th, the 22nd Royal Fusiliers came in as +the relief, and the Battalion moved to St. Aubyn for rest. + +This did not last long, for on June 8-9 the Battalion relieved the 1st +King's Royal Rifle Corps in immediate support, Oppy-Arleux line, the +casualties sustained being one other rank killed and two wounded. +Then, relieving the 22nd Royal Fusiliers, the Battalion went into the +front line, being relieved in turn on the night of June 13-14 by the +Royal West Kents, and proceeded to Bray. + +On June 20 the Battalion was taken by omnibus to Beuvry, and on the +21st relieved the 2/5th Manchester Regiment in the front line, Cambrin +left sub-sector, the casualties being two other ranks killed and six +wounded. A German raid on the Battalion right was repelled at 3.30 +a.m. on the 27th, and the 22nd Royal Fusiliers came in as relief on +the evening of that day, the Battalion proceeding to Noyelles for +rest. + +July opened with the Battalion training at Noyelles under company +arrangements, so far as it was possible, having in view its proximity +to the line and liability to observation by the enemy. On July 3 the +Battalion went into the front line, Cambrin left sub-sector. Six days +later it went into support with headquarters at Annequin. + +July 5 saw the Battalion, less two companies, in the Cambrin left +sub-sector front line, Major N.A. Lewis assuming command in the +trenches, with 100 Corps cyclists attached, while Lieutenant-Colonel +Winter remained at Annequin for the purpose of training "C" and "D" +Companies for a raid. + +About 3.30 a.m. an enemy raiding party, about fifteen strong, entered +the front line, wounding and carrying off one man. Bombing parties at +once bombed along the trench, driving the raiders out, who came under +Lewis gun and rifle fire both on entering and leaving their objective. +On returning to their own lines they left our wounded man, who was +brought in. The body of one of the enemy was found in No Man's Land, +but a complete search could not be made owing to the light. At night, +however, a patrol went out and brought in the body of the dead German. +Other bodies had apparently been dragged back to the enemy trenches. +Our casualties were only four wounded. + +On July 20, at 10.30 p.m., a raiding party, consisting of two officers +and about a hundred other ranks, crossed to the enemy's front and +support lines, the object being the capture of these two lines, the +infliction of loss on the enemy, and the securing of prisoners and +identifications. The raid was preceded by a hurricane barrage from our +artillery, Stokes' mortars, and machine guns, being also accompanied +with a discharge from oil projectors. + +Very few of the enemy were found in the front and support lines, but +small parties who were in dug-outs were bombed. Five of the enemy were +also bayoneted in a communication trench. The main garrisons of the +lines had apparently retired, and no prisoners were taken. Our +casualties during the raid were two killed, fifteen wounded, and five +wounded and missing. + +Then came a move into reserve at Annequin, but from the 27th the +Battalion moved into the front line of the Cambrin left sub-sector +again up to, and including, August 1. From then until the night of +August 25 the Battalion were doing duty in the trenches and in +reserve, but on the 26th was relieved by the 8th Sherwood Foresters, +and moved to Oblinghem. + +There training was carried on, and on September 6 the C.O., +accompanied by the company commanders and specialist officers, +reconnoitred the Givenchy support line. On the following day the +Battalion proceeded to the village support line, no shelling being +experienced during the relief of the 17th Middlesex. On September 13 +the Battalion relieved the 22nd Royal Fusiliers in the Givenchy left +sub-sector front line, a battalion of the Portuguese troops being +attached for instruction. + +Gas was projected upon the enemy on the 14th; there was no +retaliation, and on the following day the Portuguese were relieved by +another of their battalions. + +About a hundred enemy heavy shells fell on September 16 near the right +company's headquarters at Barnton Tee, Barnton Road, blowing in the +trench in five places. A bombardment on the left, which commenced +later, ceased on our retaliating. On September 17 the Portuguese +troops left the trenches and returned to their billets, while on the +night of the 18th-19th the Battalion was relieved and proceeded to +Beuvry. + +Training there until September 26, the Battalion then relieved the +22nd Royal Fusiliers in the Cambrin left sub-sector, and finding the +enemy to be ominously quiet, a patrol was sent out to Railway Craters. +On the following night eight small patrols were sent out into No Man's +Land, and on the 28th two patrols reconnoitred the enemy wire. On the +following day eight small patrols were established in No Man's Land +to cover work in the trenches, and, ensuing upon this, the German +artillery became fairly active. + +A move into support, following relief, was made on September 2. On the +5th the Battalion was relieved, and the companies marched +independently to the Orphanage, Bethune, then on to Raimbert, the +Battalion being watched on the line of march by Generals Pereira and +Kellett. + +AT BOURLON WOOD.--Training was carried on, and on November 5 the +Battalion made a move through Busnes, Merville, and the Eecke area to +the Herzeele area. More training ensued, and a strong rumour was in +the air that the 2nd Division was "for Italy." The Battalion was +equipped up to the last button, all ranks were looking forward to a +change of scenery and new phases of fighting; the medical officer +lectured the Battalion on the perils to be avoided in relation to +charming Italians, and spirits were high and merry. + +But the first attack on Cambrai took place, and instead of going to +Italy the 2nd Division was hurriedly moved south by road and rail to +take over the line from troops which had conducted the attack. + +On the night of November 26-27 the Battalion had reached +Beaumetz-les-Cambrai, from which it was moved up to the slopes of +Bourlon Wood to take over from elements of the 2/4th King's Own +Yorkshire Light Infantry and the Bays. The march along the Cambrai +road, across the captured Hindenburg Line, and on to the Sugar +Factory will long be remembered by those who took part in it. + +Again it snowed--it is curious how many important moves of the +Battalion took place in a snowstorm. This time, however, it was a +blessing, for it deadened the sound of moving troops, and certainly +saved the Battalion being heard and shelled by the enemy. + +On the line (if a few scattered posts in shell-holes can be called a +line) being taken over, the Battalion at once set to work to dig +itself in, profiting greatly by the recent training it had received in +"intensive digging." On the left was the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps, +and on the right the 62nd Division, the battalion in support being the +1st Royal Berks. The Battalion held the line on the 27th, and on the +28th changed places with the 1st Royal Berks, going into support +positions to them. + +On the 30th the heavy enemy attack developed, and the Berks being hard +pressed, three companies of the 23rd were moved up to their support. +The enemy gained a footing in their line, and one company of the 23rd +was used to counter-attack and re-establish the line, which it +successfully performed. + +The 17th Royal Fusiliers, on the Berks' left, having severe fighting, +a section of the 23rd was sent to strengthen their posts, and help was +given in supplying them with bombs and S.A.A. On the evening of +December 1 the line was readjusted between the 1st Royal Berks and the +23rd Royal Fusiliers--the Berks taking the left and the 23rd the +right. On the night of December 1 the position of the Battalion was: +two companies and two platoons in the line; two companies, less two +platoons, in support. + +On the night of December 2 the unit on the right of the 23rd Royal +Fusiliers pushed forward its line. In order to keep touch with them, +one company from the support positions went over with them at 8.10 +p.m. The advance was successful, the objective duly gained and rapidly +consolidated--one prisoner and one machine gun being taken in the +advance. + +Then came a great disappointment to the troops who had fought so well. +Further south the enemy's counter-attack had proved successful, +converting the position held by the 2nd Division into a very dangerous +salient, from which it was imperative to retire. + +The necessary orders were issued, and at dead of night, December 4-5, +the Battalion retired through Graincourt to Hermies. To cover the +retirement two sections per company were left in the line with orders +not to retire until just before dawn, and to spend the night in moving +up and down the vacated line, firing Verey-lights and rifles to delude +the enemy into thinking the line was still held. + +By this ruse the Battalion was enabled to carry out the difficult +operation of withdrawing in the face of the enemy without his +knowledge. The sections so left behind gallantly carried out their +tasks and safely rejoined the Battalion at Hermies. + +From December 5 the Battalion was in support, but on the 11th it +relieved the 21st Londons in the Hindenburg Line, and, after relief, +marched on December 20 to Gropi Camp, where Christmas was spent in +tents in the snow. In reserve until the 30th, it then relieved the +22nd Royal Fusiliers in the left canal sector (Canal du Nord) of the +Hindenburg Line. + + +1918. + +On January 3 the Battalion, relieved, marched independently by +companies to Barastre for Divisional rest. January 23 found them at +Villers Plouich in the Vacquerie right sub-sector, the Battalion +headquarters being in Farm Ravine. On February 3 they entrained on the +light railway for Equancourt, where they were placed in Divisional +reserve. Not much time was spent in this way, though, for on the 9th +the Battalion entrained for Trescault, and proceeded from there to the +Vacquerie right sub-sector, remaining in the line there until going +into reserve at Equancourt again on the 15th. + +On February 22 a move was made to the line again in the Vacquerie +right sub-sector. On the night of March 6-7 the Battalion was +relieved, and marched to Metz, where they were billeted in huts. It +was impossible, however, to secure any real rest here, for the camp +was shelled intermittently both during the day and the night. + +The afternoon of March 12 saw the Battalion back in the trenches +again at Lincoln Reserve and Midland Reserve, "D" Company being in +Snap Trench. There was a heavy gas-shell bombardment by the enemy on +the nights of the 12th, 13th, and 14th, the Battalion suffering heavy +casualties, also intermittent shelling during the day and night, while +there was, as a welcome change, a raid on the enemy front line by the +Battalion on the night of March 13-14. Then came the relief of the +Battalion, which marched back to Equancourt, a rest for the Battalion +being absolutely necessary owing to the fact that all the remaining +members were suffering from gas poisoning. + +THE GERMAN OFFENSIVE.--Next came the great offensive by the enemy--the +time when the Germans almost thrust their way right through by force +of numbers. + +The first indication of the break-through which the Battalion received +was enemy bullets actually falling in the camp. Every man turned out, +the Battalion took up a line north of Equancourt in an attempt to hold +up the advance of the enemy, patrols being sent forward into Fins, +where it was found the Germans had succeeded in establishing +themselves. + +On the following morning an enemy attack was beaten back with heavy +loss, but both its flanks being "in the air" the Battalion received +orders to retire on Le Transloy. Moving though Hayettes Wood, Ytres, +Bus, and Rocquigny, Le Transloy was reached late at night, where the +Brigade from which it had become separated was rejoined. + +Moving again before dawn, a line was taken up round Gueudecourt, which +was held during the day. Making another move at dusk, a fresh line was +established at Eaucourt l'Abbaye. Very heavily attacked on the +following day, the Battalion was forced to fight a rearguard action, +retreating through Le Sars on Pys, where another stand was made. + +Again slipping back at night, a position was taken up near Beaucourt +sur Ancre. From this position the Battalion again moved back and +occupied the old British trenches known as White City trenches near +Beaumont Hamel. In spite of many heavy enemy attacks this position was +held until the Battalion was relieved by New Zealand troops. + +_On relief it marched out to the wood at Mailly-Maillet only four +officers and seventy men strong._ + +Resting at Englebelmer for a day or so, it was again moved into the +front line at Aveluy Wood, where a German attack was beaten off, the +enemy being badly mauled. During the fighting round Gueudecourt, +Brigadier-General Barnett-Barker was killed, and, as senior Colonel in +the 99th Brigade, Lieutenant-Colonel Winter assumed command, the +command of the 23rd Royal Fusiliers devolving upon Major Lewis. + +In his anxiety to hold up the enemy for as long as possible and to get +the battalion back safely to a line being formed behind him, Major +Lewis was taken prisoner at Eaucourt l'Abbaye. The command then +devolved upon Captain C.H. Bowyer, who kept it until the return of +Lieutenant-Colonel Winter, who rejoined the Battalion on General E. +Ironside (now General Sir E. Ironside, who earned fame in Russia) +taking over the Brigade. + +It only remains to add that the gas casualties from March 12 onwards +amounted to 11 officers and 240 other ranks, while the casualties in +action from the 22nd to the 31st were: + + Officers killed 1 + " wounded 2 + " wounded and missing 1 + " missing 10 + Other ranks killed 15 + " wounded 59 + " wounded and missing 6 + " missing 210 + +During the early part of April the Battalion was busy in moving, being +in turn in Hedeauville, Beauval, Houvin, Houvigneul, Ivergny, +Coullemont, La Cauchie, and on the 14th relieved the 1st Coldstream +Guards in Brigade Reserve in front of Blaireville. Two days later it +was in the front line, right sub-sector, in front of Adinfer, doing +alternate front line and support duty until the end of the month. + +It was not until May 12 that the Battalion marched back to billets at +Berles au Bois, where training was carried on until June 7. On that +date it relieved the 1st Grenadier Guards in the Ayette left +sub-sector. Relieved on the night of June 10-11, it marched back to +reserve position near Monchy au Bois, going into the line again in the +Ayette sector on the night of 13th-14th. + +During the night of June 24-25 "A" Company carried out a raid on the +enemy front line, and at 2 a.m. on the 26th "B" Company also carried +out a similar operation. July came round, and on the night of the +22nd-23rd the Battalion supplied a flanking party to a raid carried +out by the 1st Royal Berks. On the 30th the Battalion was in the +Ayette right sub-sector, but on August 5 and August 6 there was a +reorganization of the Brigade front, and it went into support. + +Then came the British advance, and on the night of August 20-21 the +Battalion moved up for an attack by the 3rd Army. Leading off in a +dense fog, the 23rd Royal Fusiliers went over the top at Ayette, +capturing Aerodrome Trench, and so clearing the way for other troops +to leap-frog over them and capture Courcelles. + +Moving forward again in its turn, two companies of the Battalion, +under Major W.B. Cluff, captured Behagnies. On the night of August +23-24, being relieved by the Loyal North Lancs, the Battalion moved +back to bivouac near Courcelles, where it remained until September 2. +Moving forward on that day to Vaulx-Vraucourt, it attacked at dawn on +the 3rd and reached Morchies, bivouacking near Doignes. + +On the 6th-7th the Battalion took over the front line from the 1st +King's Royal Rifle Corps and delivered an attack on Slag Avenue, +suffering casualties of 3 officers killed and 100 other ranks killed +and wounded. + +Relieved on the 8th by the 52nd Light Infantry, a bivouac was made at +Beaumetz-les-Cambrai, moving on the 15th to Mory. On the 27th the +Battalion moved forward in support to the Brigade which was fighting +its way onwards, and spent the night in the Hindenburg Support Line +just west of Flesquières. + +The advance continuing, the Battalion moved again at dawn on the 28th, +reaching Nine Wood just west of Noyelles. From here one company was +sent forward and assisted the King's Royal Rifle Corps in capturing +Noyelles. Then the remainder of the Battalion moved up and took over +the front line from the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps. Attacking on the +30th, the Battalion found itself up against the strong position of +Mount sur l'Ouvres, suffering casualties of two officers and +sixty-four other ranks. This position could only be subsequently +captured by the use of a whole new brigade for the purpose. + +GERMAN TANKS UNSUCCESSFUL.--Relieved at night, the Battalion moved +back to bivouac at Nine Wood. Remaining there, resting, till October 7 +the Battalion moved up to east of Rumilly on the night of 7th-8th, and +delivered a successful attack on Forenville at dawn on the 8th. During +a counter-attack the enemy used tanks against the Battalion in an +endeavour to oust it from the positions secured, but without success. + +On one tank, indeed, getting close to our line an officer, Lieutenant +Anderson, armed with a rifle, and accompanied by his batman, got out +of the trench, went forward under heavy fire, reached the oncoming +tank, hammered at its side with his rifle-butt, and called on it to +surrender. The iron door opened, and out came the crew, to be escorted +back in triumph as prisoners! + +On the early morning of the 9th the Guards' Brigade "leap-frogged" the +Battalion and continued the attack, the Battalion moving back to +bivouac at Flesquières. Remaining there for a few days, a move was +made on the 13th to keep in touch with the general advance, Wambaix +being reached after a long march. + +Training was carried out here until the 19th, when the Battalion +marched to Boussières. At midnight on October 22, under the command of +Major H.P. Rogers, it moved up to St. Python, and on the 23rd to +Escarmain, taking over the front line from the 52nd Light Infantry. At +dawn on the 24th it attacked and captured Ruesnes, and established a +line of outposts on the railway beyond. This was the last actual +fighting done by the Battalion. Relieved on the 26th by the 7th King's +Shropshire Light Infantry, it moved back into reserve. + +With the signing of the Armistice came a welcome change. Duty was +relaxed so far as was possible, and the Battalion employed the rest of +the year in fitting itself out, and getting back into something +approaching its old condition, and marching into Germany, a distance +of 200 miles. + + +1919. + +January found the Battalion in billets at Niederaussem, forming part +of the British Army of Occupation in Germany. Training was still being +carried on, however, but sport was not lost sight of. There were +platoon football matches, whist drives, paper-chases, and so on, while +there was also voluntary educational training in such things as +English, French, and shorthand. + +On January 24 came the presentation of the King's Colour to the +Battalion by Major-General Pereira. Later, on the reorganization of +Divisions taking place, the Battalion on February 27 left the 99th +Brigade, 2nd Division, in which it had served so long, proceeded by +rail through Cologne to Ehreshoven, joined the London Division, and +took over the outposts of the Occupied Zone at Lindlar on March 18. + +On April 15, the Battalion then being back in Cologne, the command was +taken over by Brevet Lieutenant-Colonel L.F. Ashburner, M.V.O., +D.S.O., Lieutenant-Colonel Winter being appointed to the command of +the British Camp at Antwerp. On May 6 the Battalion was inspected and +complimented by General Sir William Robertson, G.C.B., K.C.V.O., +D.S.O., Commander-in-Chief British Army of the Rhine. + +In the event of the non-acceptance of the Peace Terms by Germany, +preparations were made between June 8 and June 19 for an advance, but +the orders on June 20 were held in abeyance and subsequently +cancelled. + + [Illustration: PRESENTATION OF COLOURS: NIEDERAUSSEM, GERMANY, + JUNE 24TH, 1919.] + +On June 22, at the Brigade swimming gala, the Battalion won two-thirds +of the prizes put up for competition, although they had previously +lost (2-1) in the "Kalk" football cup final to the 57th Siege Battery. + +Battalion sports were held at Klef, near Vilkerath, on July 19, the +championship being annexed by "C" Company. A competition for the best +company in the Division was won by "D" Company, who were subsequently +called upon to furnish a guard of honour on the occasion of the visit +of the Army Council to Cologne. + +The Battalion also scored in another way, for on August 1 the War +Savings results for July were announced. The amount subscribed by the +23rd Royal Fusiliers was £1,137 19s. 1d., the percentage of members +being 51 per cent, of the Battalion strength, and the Battalion being +top of the VIth Corps list for the amount subscribed. + +Finally, the 23rd (Service) Battalion Royal Fusiliers (1st +Sportsman's) ceased to exist in March, 1920, after having had a longer +life than any other Service Battalion of the Royal Fusiliers. + + + + ++-----------------------------------------------------+ +| GREAT WORK ACCOMPLISHED--HOLDING UP A GERMAN | +| ADVANCE--SILENCING SNIPERS IN A DERELICT TANK--AND | +| SOME OTHER THINGS | ++-----------------------------------------------------+ + + + + +GREAT WORK ACCOMPLISHED--HOLDING UP A GERMAN +ADVANCE--SILENCING SNIPERS IN A DERELICT TANK--AND +SOME OTHER THINGS + + +From the official narratives available it is possible to amplify, in +some few instances, the great work accomplished by the Battalion, and +which is told but tersely in the War Diary from which the previous +pages have been collated. + +Taking May 3, 1917, as an instance, when the 23rd Royal Fusiliers +formed a part of the attacking force, we are told it was determined to +capture-- + + Fresnoy Trench on a front of 1,400 yards. + + Oppy Support, by a bombing attack, over a length of 200 yards. + + Crucifix Lane, by a bombing attack, over a length of 200 + yards. + + Form a defensive front facing south on a front of 400 yards, + and + + Form eight strong points and four posts. + +The above, it may be explained, entailed the Brigade having, on the +whole, a fighting front of no fewer than 2,200 yards. + +"The task of the 23rd Royal Fusiliers, forming the left assaulting +battalion, was to capture a certain sector of Fresnoy Trench, to form +two strong points, and to form four posts.... + +"The whole of 'C' Battalion (the 23rd Royal Fusiliers) gained their +objective, but, owing to a slight loss of direction, found the enemy +still occupying Fresnoy Trench to their north. + +"A strong bombing party was immediately organized, the trench cleared, +sixty to seventy prisoners and a machine gun captured, and touch +established with the Canadians at the south end of Fresnoy Wood. At +about 5.45 a.m. a strong enemy counter-attack developed from Oppy, +which, coming up over Oppy Support and Crucifix Lane, and over the top +by several well-covered approaches, worked its way north, and attacked +the right company, whose flank was left bare owing to the retirement +of 'B' (another) Battalion. + +"This attack was pushed home with the greatest energy and +determination, and succeeded in driving the right two companies and +part of left centre company out of Oppy Trench. At this point, +however, it was brought to a halt by a strong bombing and sniping post +of the 23rd Royal Fusiliers, who not only stopped it, but +counter-attacked in their turn, and regained some 400 yards of the +trench. + +"This party then halted owing to numerical weakness and lack of bombs, +and retiring a short way, formed a block and a post, and occupied a +shell-hole line from the first point named through the second and a +little beyond it, thus forming a defensive flank in close touch with +the Canadians. + +"This party held out all day, until relieved by the 15th Warwicks at +3.30 a.m. A strong point was also formed immediately after dark and +handed over to the 15th Warwicks on relief...." + +"In one instance the garrison of a post calmly watched an enemy +machine-gun team establish a machine gun in position; they then opened +rapid fire, killed all the team, and brought in the gun...." + +Amongst the gallant services mentioned by Major-General Pereira in the +special order of the day, dated December 17, 1917, is the following: + +"No. 1,079 Lance-Sergeant James Cochrane, M.M., and No. 2,852 Private +Frank Hemington: In the enemy lines west of Bourlon Wood there was a +derelict tank, from which enemy snipers were very active at only 70 +yards from our line, causing many casualties. + +"On December 1, Lance-Sergeant Cochrane and Private Hemington +volunteered to deal with them. Creeping out through our wire, they +succeeded in reaching the tank in spite of heavy enemy fire. They put +two Mills' bombs into the tank, and on the bombs exploding they came +under heavy machine-gun fire, but returned in safety. No further +sniping came from this tank. By their gallant work we were saved many +casualties, and this daring feat cheered and encouraged the men in the +line...." + +In the desperate fighting in March, 1918, the Battalion also +distinguished itself. + +"Hexham Road," says the narrative of the morning of the 25th, "where +the headquarters of the 23rd Royal Fusiliers was in a dug-out, had +been swept by machine-gun fire all the morning, and as the Divisions +on the right had retired, the 23rd Royal Fusiliers were left in a very +precarious and isolated position, from which only small bodies of men +were able to extricate themselves...." + +Then, however, came March 28, and here our men were afforded an +opportunity of getting their own back. It is with delight that we +consequently read: + +"The old trenches were, on the whole, in surprisingly good condition, +the men had ammunition and had had some sleep and food, and orders had +been received that this was to be the line of resistance, and that +there would be no further retirement. + +"It was a day of anxiety, but still a day on which our men could at +last settle down to shooting down the enemy. This they did with great +relish." + +Bald, perhaps, these details may appear to those who have judged the +war from the pen pictures of the various war correspondents, but they +possess the ring of real reality to those who have known what it is to +be shelled day after day and night after night in the trenches, to +have advanced in the face of a rain of machine-gun bullets, or to have +been forced to take shelter in an all too small shell crater, when to +show an inch of head or body meant death or a serious wound. + + + + ++-----------------------------------------------------+ +| PRESENTATION OF THE KING'S COLOUR--MAJOR-GENERAL | +| SIR C.E.

PEREIRA, K.C.B., C.M.G., AND HIS PRIDE IN +THE BATTALION + + +His pride in the Battalion was expressed by Major-General C.E. +Pereira, C.B., C.M.G., on the occasion of the presentation of the +King's Colour at Niederaussem, Germany, on January 24, 1919. + +"First of all," said Major-General Pereira, "I will tell you how +highly I esteem the privilege of presenting these colours to-day. + +"For two years," he went on, "I have had the honour to command the 2nd +Division, and I have been proud of your work in the Field and out of +it, and of the fine spirit which you have always shown. + +"These colours are given you as a mark of the magnificent service you +have rendered in the campaign during the last four years. + +"The record of the Regiment during the whole of its service will +compare with the services of any battalion in the British Army, +whether in the Somme fighting, 1916, Courcelette, Vimy Ridge, and +Bourlon Wood in 1917, the retirement from the Cambrai salient in +March, 1918, or the recent victorious advance which culminated in the +overthrow of the Germans. In all these operations, in spite of mud, +heat or cold, or desperate resistance, you have always shown the +dogged determination to win. + +"It is a fine tribute to the British race that a newly-raised +battalion, without any previous traditions, which are such assets to +regular battalions, should have outfought the German battalions, +trained to war for generations. + +"Perhaps your finest record is that of March, 1918, when along a great +part of our front detached Divisions fought their way slowly back from +position to position, facing overwhelming numbers, and an enemy drunk +with the idea that the final victory was theirs; it was then, when +short of food, without rest, short of men, that you showed what you +were made of, and after successive days of retirement you turned and +held the Germans. + +"It is fitting that the work of this Battalion should be crowned by +the victorious march to the Rhine, and that your colours should make +their first appearance in a conquered country--a country which has +taken us four and a half years to reach." + + + + ++-----------------------------------------------------+ +| "GOOD-BYE, AND GOOD LUCK!"--BRIGADIER-GENERAL A.E. | +| McNAMARA, C.M.G., D.S.O., AND HIS FAREWELL TO THE | +| 23RD ROYAL FUSILIERS (FIRST SPORTSMAN'S BATTALION) | ++-----------------------------------------------------+ + + + + +"GOOD-BYE, AND GOOD LUCK!"--BRIGADIER-GENERAL A.E. +McNAMARA, C.M.G., D.S.O., AND HIS FAREWELL TO THE +23RD ROYAL FUSILIERS (FIRST SPORTSMAN'S BATTALION) + + +Appreciation of and admiration for the Battalion was also expressed by +Brigadier-General A.E.

Since then it has taken a leading part in all the many +and strenuous battles in which the Brigade has been engaged. In these +eventful three years we have seen together good times and bad, but +whether things were good or evil the 23rd Royal Fusiliers have ever +shown the same high discipline, _esprit de corps_, and indomitable +spirit which eventually beat down all resistance and won the war. + + [Illustration: BATTALION HEADQUARTERS: HORNCHURCH.] + + [Illustration: THE BATTALION PIERROT TROUPE: GERMANY. + To face p. 80] + +"The battles of Delville Wood, Bourlon Wood, Ayette, Behagnies, Mory +Copse, Canal du Nord, Forenville, and Ruesnes stand out in history as +a record of the achievements of the 23rd Royal Fusiliers--a record of +which the Battalion may well be proud. + +"The Battalion is now going to another Brigade and another Division. I +wish it the best of luck, and know it will maintain the high +reputation for discipline, efficiency, and, if need be, fighting, +which it has built up since its formation. + +"In bidding it farewell, I wish to thank officers, N.C.O.'s, and men +(including the gallant comrades who have fallen in the fight), for +their gallant services when in the 99th Infantry Brigade.

But there has always been +something actually lacking, and that something is the touch and the +atmosphere which can only be introduced by those who have been through +the baptism of blood and fire. + +In the following pages the _real_ touch is introduced. Every incident +is told by a man who has actually seen and experienced what he +describes. These incidents are in the actual words of the writers. +Nothing is altered. + +Here, then, is the story of the capture of Delville Wood by the 1st +Sportsman's Battalion in 1916, told by Major N.A. Lewis, D.S.O., M.C.: + +"For two days before the fight the Battalion occupied some trenches +near Bernefay Wood, and sustained a number of casualties from +shell-fire. Battalion headquarters was a shelter dug in a bank at the +side of Bernefay Wood. This shelter was constructed by Albany, the +sculler, and as he was killed in the fight it was his last job as +dug-out constructor. Needless to say, he did this job excellently. + +"For some hours before the Battalion moved off to take up its +position, the Huns shelled the area with gas shells. Fortunately, +however, just before 11 p.m., the time for starting, a breeze sprang +up, and we were able to move without wearing gas masks. + +"The move up was not pleasant. The area had been much fought over, it +had been impossible to bury the dead for ten days, and it was a hot +July! + +"Our artillery was firing to cover our move up. Just after passing +Longueval one of our shells dropped, unfortunately, near the platoon +which, with the C.O., I was following. As luck would have it, though, +only one man was badly wounded. The platoon, of course, went on, and +the C.O. went over to the man who had been hit. + +"'It's hard lines, sir,' said the man. + +"'I know it is,' said the C.O., 'but you will soon be all right. The +stretcher-bearers are coming.' + +"'Oh, it's not that,' was the man's rejoinder. 'It's being hit now! +Here have I been all this time in France without having a real go at +the b----s, and now the chance has come, here I go and get knocked +out.' + +"The C.O. made only one remark to me as we passed on. It was: 'Well, +if that's what the rest of the Battalion feels, I have no fears for +to-morrow.' + +"We took up our position in a trench at the edge of the wood. This was +all that remained after the South Africans had been beaten back, and +our attack was to start at dawn on the following morning. This attack +was in two parts, two companies to take the first objective, a trench +in the centre of the wood, and two companies to capture the far edge, +and dig themselves in there. The 1/60th were on our right, each +battalion having half the wood allotted to it. + +"The waves formed up in position shortly before dawn, and it was our +first experience of going over the top as a battalion. The men, +however, were quite cool and cheerful; in fact, one, named Lewis +Turner, asked me, 'How long to go?' I looked at my watch, and said, +'Five minutes.' His reply was, 'Oh, then I've time to finish my +breakfast.' And he did. + +"At zero our barrage started, and our first waves were off, the thing +I noticed most being that most of the men were smoking as they went +over. The whole wood was immediately full of machine-gun bullets. +There must have been hundreds of machine guns--up in trees, hidden in +the undergrowth, in fact all over the place. The Hun artillery came +down on all the approaches to the wood, but not on the wood itself so +long as any of their own men were in it. + +"Owing to the position of the wood, however, at the apex of a captured +triangle of ground, we received fire from both flanks, and also from +our right rear, as well as from the front. + +"The first objective was quickly taken, and then there was a pause +before the advance to the second. A large number of prisoners came in, +and were herded up near Battalion headquarters' trench. We then found +that we were up against the Brandenburg Regiment, which had been +specially sent up to hold the wood. + +"A number of these prisoners next got into a shell-hole near Battalion +headquarters, refusing to come farther, and one of the funniest sights +was to see our R.S.M., Sergeant-Major Powney, who, as a rule, was most +dignified, rush at them, and kick and cuff them out of it. + +"I said to him: 'Sergeant-Major, that's not your job.' He replied: 'I +know that, sir, but I couldn't help it.' Poor Powney was wounded later +in the day, and died of his wounds. + +"The advance to the second objective started promptly, but the Hun +fought hard for a time, and held us up. Every bush seemed to contain a +machine gun, and a redoubt on our left front caused us many +casualties. This redoubt contained several machine guns, with overhead +cover, and a first-aid post. As soon as the C.O. received news of this +check he sent up two reserve Lewis guns. These worked round the +redoubt, and, finding an opening, killed most of the garrison, and +then rushed it. The survivors fled, but Sergeant Royston found one of +their own guns was still in action, and finished them off with it. + +"DEALING WITH COUNTER-ATTACKS.--The final objective was quickly +reached and consolidated, and for a while our men had a pleasant time +dealing with counter-attacks from the front. The field of fire was +good, and they quickly dealt with all the attempts made to push us +back. Our casualties, though, were very heavy, particularly amongst +officers. At one time 'A' Company was commanded by Lance-Corporal +Goodman, and another company by a C.S.M. + +"Then the Hun artillery got busy on the wood, which was, of course, an +ideal mark. For the rest of the day they simply poured heavy shells +in. It was pretty terrible. Trees were torn up by the dozens, and fell +blazing. By the end of the day there was nothing but shattered stumps. + +"The Medical Officer had a busy time, and owing to the barrage could +not evacuate his wounded. The aid post was filled, and the overflow +had to be put in shell-holes round about. The consequence was that +many of them were killed as they lay there. Owing to the barrage, too, +the sending of messages back to Brigade headquarters and the companies +in front became almost impossible. Out of sixteen headquarter runners +no fewer than fourteen became casualties before mid-day. + +"One message was sent back by carrier pigeon, and a message received +from the Brigadier read: 'Hold on. Reinforcements are being sent.' The +reply of the C.O. was: 'Of course we shall hold on. We are being +hammered, but our tails are still up.' + +"As the day wore on many efforts were made to get round our flanks and +turn us out. Bombing parties crept up, and had to be dealt with by +our bombers. It was in one of these tussles that Jerry Delany (the +famous boxer) was killed. + +"At one time word came from our comrades on the right that the Hun had +broken through. So we sent over a party to their assistance, and +finally repelled the attackers. We spent the whole of the afternoon +and evening in this way, but when our relief came up that night we +handed over the wood intact. + +"The scene at night was awful, the wood being ablaze in many places. I +read messages and wrote out the relief orders by the light of a +blazing tree, which had fallen across the shell-hole then being +occupied by Battalion headquarters. + +"During the night our Brigadier came up and held a conference in our +shell-hole. One of our men, Corporal Walker, who was attached to the +Brigade Machine-Gun Company, came to this conference, and when asked +by the Brigadier what he wanted, replied: 'I have reason to believe, +sir, I now command the Machine-Gun Company.' This was actually the +case, and he brought the remnants out, being badly wounded in doing +so. + +"We were relieved by the 6th Brigade, and at dawn returned to our +quarters at Bernefay--that is to say, those of us who were left. Our +casualties were nearly 400, over 60 per cent, of those who went in. +Out of eighteen officers who went into the wood, thirteen became +casualties, every company commander being included in this number, +while the 1/60th suffered equally heavily. + +"As I was making out our casualty return in our headquarters' +shell-hole by the light of the blazing trees, our Quartermaster +appeared with the rations. He threw a newspaper down to me, with the +remark: 'You'll find something interesting in that.' I opened the +paper, and found a full column describing how the South Africans took +Delville Wood! + +"When we were moving back into support, I noticed a horrible smell, +and found it was due to the fact that almost every man was smoking a +Hun cigar, large quantities of which had been found in the trenches, +together with large quantities of soda-water. + +"One of the Hun officer prisoners remarked that our advance through +the wood was the finest thing they ever saw, but that he objected to +being captured by civilians." + + * * * * * + +SOME LIGHTER STORIES.--Another story of Delville Wood, introducing the +M.O. + +"During the Delville Wood show a captured Hun Red Cross man was +lending a hand in the Battalion aid post. Suddenly a scuffle was heard +on the steps of the dug-out, and the prisoner went to see what was the +matter. 'What's happened?' asked Doc. Isaac, busily engaged in +bandaging a wounded man. + +"'Oh, it's only some of those b---- Bosches!' was the reply...." + + * * * * * + +There were many middle-aged men in the First Sportsman's. This +introduces one of them. + +"The Battalion was marching down the main street of Carnoy when a +charming French girl of about eighteen dashed into the line of route, +evidently with the idea of 'parleyvooing' with one of the young +sports. She commenced in a breezy manner chatting with my father, a +youngster of fifty, not noting, at first, his grey hair. Suddenly he +turned his head toward her and smiled. 'Oh, papa!' she ejaculated, and +fled...." + + * * * * * + +The Quartermaster is a noted personage in the Army. This is to +introduce him. + +"While the Battalion was at Aix Neulette the transport came under +shell-fire one morning. The shells came nearer and nearer, in a direct +line with the water-carts, highly polished, the pride of the corporal +in charge. The personnel eventually thought fit to take shelter in an +adjacent shell-hole until the Hun had finished his unpleasant pranks. + +"Over came the fifth shell with a whistle and a scream, and--bang!--up +went the two carts in the air, while shell fragments flew all over the +place. Hanging on a line were various articles of washing, the clean +clothes of the water-cart crew. These were in the line of fire, and as +a consequence were well perforated. + +"Now comes the sequel. They were taken to the Quartermaster on the +following morning, and, so it is said, he refused to replace them _on +the ground that the holes were not the result of fair wear and +tear_!..." + + * * * * * + +Two gentlemen rankers are introduced here. + +"After some months of hard roughing it, two of the Battalion cooks +decided to apply, modestly, for commissions. So they duly appeared +before the Colonel. But the summons to attend did not give them time +in which to get out of their cooking rig, and the sergeant paraded +them in their old overalls. + +"'Hem. Where were you educated?' asked the Colonel of one man. + +"'Rugby and Oxford,' was the reply. + +"'And what were you in private life?' asked the Colonel, turning to +the other. + +"'A painter.' + +"'A painter?' queried the Colonel. + +"'Yes, sir. I have exhibited at the Royal Academy....'" + + * * * * * + +Many Germans left London when the war started, to fight against us. +This is one of them, turned up as a prisoner. + +"We were up the line one day when a patrol brought in a Hun prisoner. +Of course we wanted information, for we were expecting an attack of +some sort that very night. So we hauled our man up before the C.O. and +started asking him questions. We tried him in German, and got no +reply. We tried French with him, and it had no result. Then, seeing he +was eyeing a water-bottle eagerly, I suddenly thought he might be +thirsty. + +"'Ask him if he would like a drink,' I suggested. + +"'I should,' came the reply, in quite as good English as I could have +spoken myself. Naturally I was surprised, and I asked him where he had +learnt his English. + +"'In London, sir,' was the rejoinder. 'I worked as a barber close to +Holborn for years.' + +"We gave him a little drink of whisky, and he told us there would be +no attack that night. But we took no chances. A guard, with fixed +bayonet, was placed over him, and he was told in English that he would +be the first to get his medicine if he had played us false. + +"He had not, however. No attack was made, and he was sent back behind +the lines to the 'cage' next day...." + + * * * * * + +Another. + +Overheard in the ranks on the march up the Cambrai Road in a +snow-storm to take over at Bourlon Wood. + +"Italy!" said the Doc. "It looks more like being _another_ b---- +Wood!" + + + + ++-----------------------------------------------------+ +| EXPERIENCES AS A PRISONER OF WAR--EXTRACTS FROM | +| THE DIARY KEPT BY "MR. BROOKS, THE SCHOOLMASTER" | ++-----------------------------------------------------+ + + + + +EXPERIENCES AS A PRISONER OF WAR--EXTRACTS FROM +THE DIARY KEPT BY "MR. BROOKS, THE SCHOOLMASTER" + + +"Reported missing." + +Many poignant memories attach to such a bald announcement as this. +Dead--probably a prisoner of war--perhaps. And there have been those +who would have preferred, had they had the chance, of a death under +the open sky to imprisonment under the Hun. + +In the diary of a 23rd Royal Fusilier, "Mr. Brooks, the schoolmaster," +as he was once dubbed by his captors, tells the story of how he was +made a prisoner, his detention by the enemy, and his eventual return +home. + +The arrival of a parcel, he says, was a red-letter event; the problem +of how much to eat at a time, and how much to save out of his rations +for the provision of another apology of a meal, was a big one. Boiled +nettles and dandelions for dinner and tea on Whit Sunday, 1917, proves +what the fare actually was; quarters of eggs were unaccustomed +luxuries. "I have picked mouldy crusts off the ground, and prunes off +dust-heaps," he says. + +Dry bread and tea was a luxurious meal; beards had to be cut, or +pulled out by means of borrowed scissors; one loaf, and a small one +at that, had to prove sufficient for the needs of five men; there were +occasional intervals of twenty-two hours between meals. "We were +thinking of nothing but food," he explains. All this time, too, the +prisoners were engaged in heavy manual work, humping bricks, loading +and stacking hay, and so on. + +While in hospital, "Mr. Brooks, the schoolmaster," sold his boots for +tobacco and his socks for bread, and he mixed his jam ration with +coffee in order to eke it out. "Personally, I am hungry all day long," +is how he describes his feelings. "I bought about one-sixth of a loaf +for seventeen cigarettes." + +"I was rather slow in getting into bed," is how he describes another +of his experiences, "and the German orderly picked up my satchel and +hurled it against the wall, open as it was, at the risk of spilling +its contents." + +He pays a deep tribute to the humanity of the French who were still +living in the occupied territory; the Belgians he met were also kind; +some Germans showed traces of feeling, others were no better than +brutes.... + +Here, however, are actual extracts from the diary itself. They speak +for themselves. + +"Three or four Germans began to advance, and it seemed to me that the +question which had been at the back of my mind since a second or two +after the first opening of the guns, Was this the end? was about to be +answered.... + +"With many signs to hasten, my German hurried me on. Soon, with three +others, I found myself by poor old Bill Shoebridge, a good old +grumbler of some fifty summers, who had been cruelly sent out to us in +December, and had kept his end up well, with, at times, many +grumblings. He was painfully hit above the knee.... + +"We came to the village, yet unsmashed, but showing signs that it had +received a knock or two. OPPY was printed in black letters on white +boards in various places, and after wondering for some time what Oppy +meant I found it was the name of a place.... We were then marched off, +and after some more wandering found ourselves in a kitchen with two or +three Germans, who looked quite comfortable, well fed, and at home.... + +"The Germans we saw almost all regarded us kindly, though many of them +had something of mockery in their looks. We now began to see a few of +the French inhabitants. They are splendid. Willingly they give us all +they can spare, and much that they cannot. Were it not for the fact +that they are not allowed to give, and that all their gifts have to be +_sub rosa_, we should, I think, want for little.... + +"Then came the first unpleasant incident. A poor Frenchwoman rushed +out and gave a loaf to one of us. One of the guards, a boy of about +nineteen, snatched it out of his hands, and threw it on the pavement +in front of the woman. + +"At Phalemphin station we were all included in a party of eighty. We +were addressed in English by a German officer. The gist of his remarks +was that we were to be marched to our destination, and that any man +who tried to escape would be incontinently shot, also that any man who +did not behave would be punished.... + +"After this day, Saturday, April 28, for more than five and a half +weeks, day in and day out, we left our prison between 6.15 and 6.40, +struck work and returned for dinner between 11.15 and 1.30, according +to the job, left the prison at 1.30 (if we had not arrived for dinner +until after 1 we got extra time), and struck work any time between +5.30 and 10.30.... + +"In our (British) lines if one (a prisoner of war) has to work extra +time, one always gets time off to compensate, also one has plenty of +food to work on. Here, extra work carried no compensations. The work, +especially latterly, was mainly unloading trucks, pushing the trucks +about, and packing the contents of the trucks in various stores. + +"In the yard were always parties of French and Belgians working, and, +if allowed, they would have given us their souls. At the commencement +of our stay, however, we were told to take nothing from the French, +and it was certainly not many days before we found it was almost +impossible to take anything from them because the penalty was so +great. Whenever the French and the Belgians did get a chance they +availed themselves of it.... + +"Let us never forget that we also got things from the Germans. Until +we reached Phalemphin we had received no rough or cruel treatment +whatever.... + +"At Douai our gaolers were without exception friendly and kind; at +Lille our gaolers were taciturn, and when they did speak, though loud +and threatening in words, laid hands on no man. We were, therefore, +expecting no man-handling, and it came as a fearful shock. It is my +impression that man-handling began in about four days' time, but it +may be that some smaller incident, such as being thumped in the back +by the guard, had passed unnoticed as being mere playfulness on their +part. + +"As to man-handling, it began slowly and increased in frequency, and I +think in severity, as the time went on, until, to me at any rate, it +became somewhat of a nightmare. Within a week of our arrival at +Phalemphin the guard would rush at, beat, strike, or kick any man who +had a pipe or cigarette in his mouth while we were being counted in +the yard.... + +"Suddenly the man in charge in that part of the yard appeared. It was +the first time I had seen him. Judging from first impressions, he was +a quiet, self-contained, steady kind of man, rather like the great +'Agrippa' in 'Shock-headed Peter' to look at.... Suddenly the man +changed, and with a sudden rush was amongst us. + +"'Agrippa,' thinking he was being disparaged, flew at Barber and +struck him violently two or three times in the face. One of our +sergeants, named Morley, remonstrated, and in a second 'Agrippa' had +struck him two or three times in the face.... + +"I don't know what you would think of one and a half spoonfuls of jam, +or grease, or preserved meat, or half an uncooked herring for the only +thing to eat daily in addition to dry bread and a bowl of soup at +midday, but such are our rations, and I can tell you that by now one +has got to look forward to the day's issue as a very big thing.... + +"The first 'tying up' shows him, the sergeant-major, at his best as a +wise judge, jury, and executioner.... The method of tying up was as +follows: In the garden behind our barn were some trees. The man had to +stand with his feet close together and his back to the tree; he was +then tied to the tree by a strap round the ankles. + +"His hands were tied together behind his back and the strap passed +round the tree. The third strap was the worst; it was tied round the +man's neck, and tied tightly round the tree, so that the back of the +man's head was against the tree. + +"Of course, a good deal depended upon the guard--some guards would tie +all the straps lightly, some would tie some men tight and others +loose, and so on. The most popular tree for tying men up to was not +straight, so that being tied up tightly to it was no joke, as I can +vouch for.... + +"A favourite pastime of the sergeant-major was to come and watch the +men at work. Then, indeed, did everyone buck up.... On one occasion I +saw him mercilessly belabour an Australian boy with his stick. The boy +had not been able to respond quickly enough to his order. + +"Well, it is six months to-morrow since I had an English meal. (This +is written in hospital.) The last three days I have tried the tip of +having a drink of coffee at breakfast-time, and having my breakfast +between 8.30 and 10, but I don't know that it is any better. Strange +are the ways of this hospital--no soap and no clean bedding since I +came in. + +"Sometimes peace and go as you please, sometimes every little rule +fussed about. Clothes and food are not in any way satisfactory, but +one is getting a rest, and that is what one should remember.... +Suspense. Waiting with, oh, how many hopes and fears, for that parcel +to turn up. Hungrier and hungrier, and with the dread of tobacco +running out...." + +Then in conclusion comes a pathetic little personal note. + +"I have never read this through since I returned in December, 1918. +Seeing the mention of Bull a few pages back reminds me that I +afterwards heard he had died in hospital. I wrote to his wife on my +return, and found she was a widow. + +"The Germans reported that her husband had died from wounds in Mons +Hospital. I was with him all through August, and he had no wounds. I +saw him in hospital in November, and he had no wounds, only boils. So +I do not see how he died of wounds." + + + + +THE HONOURS' LIST + +NAMES OF OFFICERS AND MEN AWARDED DECORATIONS AND +MENTIONED IN DESPATCHES + + + + +THE HONOURS' LIST + +OFFICERS + +---------+----------------------+----------+----------------------------- + | | Date of | +Rank. | Name. | Award or | Decoration, etc. + | | Mention. | +---------+----------------------+----------+----------------------------- +Capt. | Bull, F.G. | 4. 6.17 | Military Cross +Capt. | Bull, F.G. | 26. 7.17 | Bar to M.C. +Major | Bowyer, C.H. | 4. 4.17 | Chevalier de la Coronne +Major | Bowyer, C.H. | 13. 3.18 | D.S.O. +Capt. | Barr, A.J. | 11. 5.17 | Military Cross +Lieut. | Colman, L.H. | 9. 4.17 | Mentioned in Despatches +Capt. | Gardner, A.S. | 17. 4.17 | Military Cross +Capt. | Humfrey, A.A.P. | 13. 2.17 | Military Cross +Capt. | Humfrey, A.A.P. | 17. 4.17 | Bar to M.C. +Capt. | Hilder, M.L. | 11. 5.17 | Military Cross +Capt. | Isaac, E.E. | 20.10.16 | Military Cross + | (R.A.M.C.) | | +Capt. | Isaac, E.E. | 17. 4.17 | Bar to M.C. + | (R.A.M.C.) | | +Major | Lewis, N.A. | 13. 2.17 | Military Cross +Major | Lewis, N.A. | 17. 4.17 | Bar to M.C. +Major | Lewis, N.A. | 26. 7.17 | D.S.O. +Major | Lewis, N.A. | 7.11.17 | Mentioned in Despatches +Lieut. | Moore, E.A. | 22. 5.17 | Mentioned in Despatches +Lieut. | Milsom, M.G. | 26. 7.17 | Military Cross +Capt. | Spencer, H. | 15. 6.16 | Mentioned in Despatches +Capt. | Spencer, H. | 1. 1.17 | Military Cross +Capt. | Spencer, H. | 7.11.17 | Mentioned in Despatches +Capt. | Spencer, H. | 7. 4.18 | Mentioned in Despatches +Capt. | Spencer, H. | 8. 7.19 | Mentioned in Despatches +Lt.-Col. | Vernon, H.A.

If an +individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are +located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from +copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative +works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg +are removed. Of course, we hope that you will support the Project +Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by +freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of +this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with +the work. You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by +keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project +Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others. + +1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern +what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are in +a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States, check +the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement +before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or +creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project +Gutenberg-tm work. The Foundation makes no representations concerning +the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United +States. + +1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg: + +1.E.1.

If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived +from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is +posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied +and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees +or charges. If you are redistributing or providing access to a work +with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the +work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1 +through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the +Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or +1.E.9. + +1.E.3.

Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable +effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread +public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm +collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain +"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or +corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual +property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a +computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by +your equipment. + +1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right +of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project +Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project +Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all +liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal +fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT +LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE +PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE +TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE +LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR +INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH +DAMAGE. + +1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a +defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can +receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a +written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you +received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with +your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with +the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a +refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity +providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to +receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy +is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further +opportunities to fix the problem. + +1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth +in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER +WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO +WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE. + +1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied +warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages. +If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the +law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be +interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by +the applicable state law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any +provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions. + +1.F.6.

Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm + +Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of +electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers +including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists +because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from +people in all walks of life. + +Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the +assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's +goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will +remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5.

PEREIRA, K.C.B., C.M.G.<span class="totoc"><a href="#toc">ToC</a></span></h3> +<br /> + +<p>The history of any New Army battalion is a valuable contribution to +the history of the war. This applies particularly to a battalion like +the 23rd Royal Fusiliers, which achieved a high morale and maintained +excellent discipline throughout the war.</p> + +<p>At the Front our only knowledge of the New Army before they came +overseas was gained from the Brigade Staffs and Commanding Officers of +the new Formations, who were sent over for short attachment to troops +in the line.</p> + +<p>We learnt from them the great difficulties that had to be overcome in +raising new units, with very few officers, warrant officers, and +N.C.O.'s to lead the new force and instruct them in military routine. +Without exception they were filled with admiration of the physique, +intelligence, and spirit of the men who had rushed to arms in those +dark early days of the war.</p> + +<p>It was evidently the flower of the nation that came <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_5" id="Page_5">[5]</a></span>forward, and +probably in the history of all wars such magnificent material has +never been equalled.</p> + +<p>My acquaintance with the 23rd Battalion Royal Fusiliers extended from +the end of 1916 to March, 1919, when the Battalion left the 2nd +Division, and it is interesting to look back at my first impression of +the Battalion, as I had not previously had any New Army battalions +under my command. Regular battalions have the pride of history to +sustain them, and traditions to live up to, but here I found a +battalion not two years old, with its history in the making, but with +the same spirit and self-consciousness that one finds in the old +formations.</p> + +<p>Those who have not had considerable experience of troops in peace and +war may imagine that regiments are, at all times, sustained by a great +pride in their past, and a determination to live up to it. Alas! in +some cases this spirit dies away in adversity. I have seen the 23rd +Royal Fusiliers in good times and in bad, and I have never found them +downhearted.</p> + +<p>When out for a few weeks' rest and training, in pleasant surroundings, +their work and play were carried out with much life and zest.</p> + +<p>In the fighting in the Cambrai salient, in the Bourlon-Mœuvres +Ridge, on November 30, 1917, when the 2nd Division defeated six +successive attacks on their line, the 23rd Royal Fusiliers at the end +of the day held their line intact. This action was followed two days +later by a withdrawal which was necessary to get us <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_6" id="Page_6">[6]</a></span>out of a sharp +salient. This entailed very hard work and constant trench fighting, +extending over several days. The troops were very exhausted from the +extremely heavy calls that had been made on them, but after a few +days' rest it was almost incredible how rapidly they had thrown off +their fatigue and how good their spirits were.</p> + +<p>They knew they had killed large numbers of Germans, and had +successfully defeated a German attack which, if successful, would have +been a great disaster for the British.</p> + +<p>A more trying time was the March retreat in 1918. Lieutenant-Colonel +Winter had lost his voice from the effect of several days of very +heavy gas shelling of the Highland Ridge just before the Germans +launched their attack, and he was voiceless for the next ten days. A +large proportion of his Battalion were similarly affected, but time +after time during the retreat they turned and fought, and inflicted +heavy losses on the enemy until they did their share in repelling a +heavy attack at Beaumont Hamel, where the Germans were finally held.</p> + +<p>It was the spirit of such battalions as the 23rd Royal Fusiliers that +broke the German offensive, and the marvellous power of recuperation +that they had, given a few days to rest and sleep.</p> + +<p>In the offensive operations that lasted from August 21, 1918, to the +Armistice, the Battalion delivered many successful attacks with +undiminished dash and courage, <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_7" id="Page_7">[7]</a></span>and it was a proud day when I saw them +march through the Square in Duren with fixed bayonets, headed by the +few Regimental pipers that had been through the war with them since +their formation.</p> + +<p>Well had they earned their Victory March into Germany, and +Lieutenant-Colonel Winter was justified in his great pride in their +fine appearance and magnificent transport.</p> + +<p>In conclusion I must pay a tribute to the private soldiers, the +non-commissioned officers, and the young officers, who, year in and +year out, faced death and the greatest of hardships with that dogged +courage that has always broken the hearts of our enemies.

Public +Schools battalions, the Chums, the Footballers, and other battalions +were formed. But to the First Sportsman's belongs the honour of +introducing an actually new type.</p> + +<p>To begin with, it was cosmopolitan. Practically every grade of life +was represented, from the peer to the peasant; class distinctions were +swept away, every man turned to and pulled his bit. To illustrate what +is meant one hut of thirty men at Hornchurch may be mentioned.</p> + +<p>In this hut the first bed was occupied by the brother of a peer. The +second was occupied by the man who formerly drove his motor-car. Both +had enlisted at the same time at the Hotel Cecil, had passed the +doctor at the same time at St. Paul's Churchyard, and had drawn their +service money when they signed their papers. Other beds in this hut +were occupied by a mechanical engineer, an old Blundell School boy, +planters, a mine overseer from Scotland, a man in <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_18" id="Page_18">[18]</a></span>possession of a +flying pilot's certificate secured in France, a photographer, a +poultry farmer, an old sea dog who had rounded Cape Horn on no fewer +than nine occasions, a man who had hunted seals, "with more patches on +his trousers than he could count," as he described it himself, a bank +clerk, and so on.</p> + +<p>It must not be thought that this hut was an exceptional one. Every hut +was practically the same, and every hut was jealous of its reputation. +Scrubbing day was on Saturdays as a rule, and it was then that the +"un-char-lady" side of various men came out. They were handling +brooms, scrubbing-brushes, and squeegees for the first time in their +lives, but they stuck it, and, with practice making perfect, it was +surprising to what a pitch of cleanliness things eventually got.</p> + +<p>Even church parade has been dodged on a Sunday morning in order that +three pals might unite in an effort to get the stoves blacked, the +knives and forks polished, and a sheen put on the tea-pails.</p> + +<p>One may smile about these things now when in civilian life again, but +it was all very real at the time. The First Sportsman's were not +coddled; no man thought twice about getting in a terrible mess when +domestic duties had to be performed. The only kick came when the hut +windows had to be cleaned with old newspapers. The man who had +forgotten to wash the old cloths or buy new ones came in for a +terrible time.</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_19" id="Page_19">[19]</a></span>Rivalry, perfectly friendly in character, was great in the earlier +days before chums began to be split up as the result of taking +commissions. If we were digging trenches "somewhere in Essex," our +particular sector had to be completed quicker and be more finished in +character than any other. Jobs were done at the double if it were +thought to be necessary; if any man developed a tendency to take a +rest at too frequent intervals—well, he was ticked off in the most +approved fashion. It all made for the good of the whole. The N.C.O. in +charge had an easy time, he hadn't to drive a man. All he had to do +was to see that in over-eagerness his working party did not take +risks.</p> + +<p>But the time came when the calculations upon securing a commission +began to make their appearance. It may be some men were approached on +the matter, or that others thought they would get to the Front more +quickly as individual officers than as members of the Battalion (as +indeed proved the case in many instances), but certain it is that the +Colonel began to be inundated with applications to apply for +permission.</p> + +<p>Whilst freely recommending all suitable applications, the Colonel, in +order to keep up the strength of the Battalion, made a rule that an +applicant was to supply two other recruits to the Battalion of a +certain height and of absolute physical fitness.</p> + +<p>Naturally this was conformed with, and the recruiting sergeants round +Whitehall were all the richer for it. <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_20" id="Page_20">[20]</a></span>So, too, were the recruits, and +everyone was satisfied. If one man went two others took his place.</p> + +<div class="img"><a name="imagep20" id="imagep20"></a> +<a href="images/imagep20.jpg"> +<img border="0" src="images/imagep20.jpg" width="90%" alt="FIRST INSPECTION OF BATTALION: HYDE PARK, OCTOBER, +1914." /></a><br /> +<p class="cen" style="margin-top: .2em; margin-bottom: .2em;">FIRST INSPECTION OF BATTALION: HYDE PARK, OCTOBER, +1914.<span class="totoi"><a href="#toi">ToList</a></span></p> +<p class="right2" style="margin-top: .2em;">To face p. 20</p></div> + +<br /> + +<p>Finally, as it was found that men constantly leaving was interfering +with the internal organization of the companies, a special company was +formed of all those waiting for their commission papers to come +through.</p> + +<p>This company, "E," proved the friendly butt of all the others, one wag +even going so far as to christen it the "Essex Beagles," alleging they +did not "parade," but "met"!</p> + +<p>So, in order to free the others for harder training this company +provided very nearly all the fatigue parties for the camp.</p> + +<p>Still, this didn't matter. It just gave the budding officers a chance +to show what they were capable of. On several occasions a member of +"E" Company proved he was more than a little useful with his hands +when it came to a matter of treating things from a physical point of +view and cutting the cheap wit out. The fatigues were also done +without a murmur, that was another point of honour, and although the +available strength of the company was dwindling day by day, "grousing" +about extra work was conspicuous by its absence.</p> + +<p>There was a funny side about this dwindling of the strength, too. Men +would be on the morning parade, and not on that later in the day. The +explanation was a simple one. Their papers had come through. A <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_21" id="Page_21">[21]</a></span>man +would walk out through the gates and be pulled up by the sentry.</p> + +<p>"What about your pass?" the latter would ask.</p> + +<p>"Got my discharge," would be the reply.</p> + +<p>"Got a commission?"</p> + +<p>"Yes."</p> + +<p>"Good luck, old chap. I'm getting my papers to-morrow."</p> + +<p>So, many of the original members of the First Sportsman's Battalion +were scattered about on every front in their various regiments. +Walking through the Rue Colmar, Suez, one day I met my old company +officer, then in the Royal Flying Corps. At Sidi Bishr, on the banks +of the Mediterranean, I met another. A fellow-sergeant in the +Battalion came up in the Rue Rosetta, Alexandria, and claimed me.</p> + +<p>Out beyond the Bitter Lakes, east of the Suez Canal, I met an old +Sportsman who had been a fellow-corporal with me. Back of the Somme, a +prominent West Country Sportsman shouted a greeting to me from the +Artillery. He still remembered rousing the camp at Hornchurch one +night by sounding a hunting horn.</p> + +<p>In an Artillery Captain in the Hebuterne sector I recognized another +member—a Machine-Gun officer rolled up smilingly on the way up the +line, and, finest time of all, I had nearly a whole day with what was +left of the old crowd when they were resting after Delville Wood.</p> + +<p>Friendships made in the First Sportsman's Battalion <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_22" id="Page_22">[22]</a></span>were not easily +broken. We are out of it now, but—once a Sportsman, always a +Sportsman. That, at least, has been my experience.</p> + +<p>And it must not be forgotten that to Mrs. Cunliffe-Owen is due the +credit of conceiving the idea of a battalion formed of men over the +then enlistment age, who, by reason of their life as sportsmen, were +fit and hard. Approaching the War Office, she obtained permission to +raise a special battalion of men up to the age of forty-five. This was +how the Sportsman's Battalion was actually brought into being.</p> + +<br /> +<br /> +<br /> +<br /> +<a name="TRAINING_AT_HOME" id="TRAINING_AT_HOME"></a><hr /> +<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_23" id="Page_23">[23]</a></span><br /> +<br /> +<br /> +<br /> + +<h2>TRAINING AT HOME—HOW THE FINISHED <br />SOLDIER EMERGED +FROM THE ROUGH MATERIAL</h2> + +<br /> +<br /> +<br /> +<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_24" id="Page_24">[24]</a></span><br /> +<hr /> +<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_25" id="Page_25">[25]</a></span><br /> + +<h3>TRAINING AT HOME—HOW THE FINISHED <br />SOLDIER EMERGED +FROM THE ROUGH MATERIAL<span class="totoc"><a href="#toc">ToC</a></span></h3> +<br /> + +<p>Formed almost as soon as the war broke out in 1914, the First +Sportsman's Battalion may have provoked some criticism. It was +uncertain at first as to what branch of the service it was to +represent. Personally I thought it was to be mounted, and I was not +alone in this idea either. More than a few of us got busy at once in +settling how, if possible, we could provide our own mounts. That was +in the days when we were new to war, long before we began to know what +something approaching the real thing was.</p> + +<p>Recruiting went on briskly at the Hotel Cecil, London, where Mrs. +Cunliffe-Owen and her staff worked hard and late. Lieutenant-Colonel +Winter, then Second-Lieutenant Winter, with his ledger-like book and +his green-baize-covered table, was a familiar figure. So, too, was the +tailor who had been entrusted with the task of fitting us out with our +uniforms. He, poor man, was soon in trouble. The stock sizes could be +secured, but stock sizes were at a discount with the majority of the +men who first joined up. They wanted outside sizes, and very +considerable outside sizes, too, <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_26" id="Page_26">[26]</a></span>for the average height was a little +over six feet, and the chest measurements in proportion.</p> + +<p>Still, we recognized that these things had to be, and we kept on with +a smile and a joke for everything. Perhaps we had a pair of army +trousers and a sports-coat. Perhaps we had a pair of puttees, and the +rest of the costume was our own. It didn't matter. It was good enough +to parade in off the Embankment Gardens. It was good enough to route +march in through the London streets. And the traffic was always +stopped for us when we came home up the Strand, and proceeded down the +steps by the side of "the Coal Hole" to the "dismiss." Rude things +might be said to us by the crowd, but there was a warm spot in their +hearts for us. We just carried on.</p> + +<p>Bit by bit we were provided with our uniforms, and we began to fancy +ourselves as the real thing. We began to make new friends, and we were +drawn closer to those we knew. We came from all over the world. At the +call men had come home from the Far East and the Far West. A man who +had gone up the Yukon with Frank Slavin, the boxer; another who had +been sealing round Alaska; trappers from the Canadians woods; railway +engineers from the Argentine; planters from Ceylon; big-game hunters +from Central Africa; others from China, Japan, the Malay States, +India, Egypt—these were just a few of the Battalion who were ready +and eager to shoulder a rifle, and do their bit as just common or +garden <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_27" id="Page_27">[27]</a></span>Tommies. The thought of taking a commission did not enter our +minds at the start. Every man was eager to get on with the work, with +but a dim thought of what it was going to be like, but worrying not a +bit about the future.</p> + +<p>In a few weeks the Battalion had learnt how to form fours, to wheel, +and to maintain a uniformity of step. Every man was desperately keen; +to be late for parade was a great big sin. And this despite the fact +that every man had to come into London from all parts of the suburbs, +and farther out than that in many instances, by train (paying his own +fare) every morning.</p> + +<p>So the time went on. Then came the news that we were to go into camp +at the Grey Towers, Hornchurch, Essex, and next came the formation of +a fatigue party to go on ahead and get things ready for the reception +of the Battalion. There was a rush to get into this party as soon as +the news went round. Everyone was eager to do something fresh, and, +after all, we didn't know what fatigues were in those days. So the +party went on ahead.</p> + +<p>We who were left kept on with our drills; we even did physical jerks +on the slopes of Savoy Street, Strand. Then came the news that we were +to march away. That bucked everybody up tremendously, for, to tell the +truth, we were really beginning to get tired of the London life. Some +of us, who had seen life in various parts of the world previously, +were sighing again for the open air. All of us were thinking it was +<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_28" id="Page_28">[28]</a></span>really time we did something to justify our existence. We did not +claim to be show soldiers; we wanted to get at it.</p> + + +<div class="img"><a name="imagep28" id="imagep28"></a> +<a href="images/imagep28.jpg"> +<img border="0" src="images/imagep28.jpg" width="90%" alt="MARCHING AWAY FROM HYDE PARK TO ENTRAIN FOR HORNCHURCH." /></a><br /> +<p class="cen" style="margin-top: .2em; margin-bottom: .2em;">MARCHING AWAY FROM HYDE PARK TO ENTRAIN FOR HORNCHURCH.<span class="totoi"><a href="#toi">ToList</a></span></p> + +<p class="right2" style="margin-top: .2em;">To face p. 28</p></div> +<br /> + +<p>All things come to those who wait, however. We were to move to +Hornchurch—the first step to active service. We had our uniforms, we +even had white gloves, and at last we fell in, by the Hotel Cecil, +with a band at our head, and off we went. Funnily enough, some of us +felt this break with London more than we felt anything afterwards. It +was really our first introduction to "the Great Unknown."</p> + +<p>Had the Guards been marching away they could not have had a greater +and a more enthusiastic send-off. The streets of the City were packed; +it was a struggle to get through. At Liverpool Street we were reduced +to a two-deep formation, and even then it became a case of shouldering +your way through those who had gathered to wish us "God speed." But we +were entrained at last; we detrained at Romford, and we marched to +Hornchurch. We were in the camp.</p> + +<p><span class="sc">Our First Surprise.</span>—That's when we had the first surprise +sprung upon us, for we learnt that the camp would be our home for a +whole solid fourteen days. No one was to be allowed to go into the +village; we were to begin our course of instruction in discipline. +There were a few heart-burnings, but nothing more. The Battalion +played up to its ideal.</p> + +<p>We were drilled early and late; we were instructed in the art of guard +mounting; we peeled potatoes in <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_29" id="Page_29">[29]</a></span>the cookhouse; we fetched coal from +the quartermaster's stores; we fell in to get our rations from the +cookhouse; and last, but not least, we began to grouse. That was our +first advance to becoming real soldiers. At least, so the author was +told by an old N.C.O. who had marched with Roberts to Kabul, and who +was again in the Service, too aged to do more than to instruct, but +not too aged to do that well.</p> + +<p>Hard work and plain but plentiful food soon made the Battalion as hard +as nails, a phrase coined by the London <i>Evening News</i>, and a phrase +that stuck. Quite as important, too, was the fact that a member of the +"hard as nails" Battalion had to prove he was capable of acting up to +it. So it was just a matter of honour that every man should keep off +the sick parades, and not come home in the ambulance when a long route +march or a field day was indulged in.</p> + +<p>This took a bit of doing sometimes, for there was no mercy shown us. +We said we wanted the real thing, and, between ourselves, we got it. A +march of seven miles to the scene of operations, a hard field day, and +a march of seven miles home again, with pack, rifle, and full +equipment in other ways, was our lot. We began to recognize that we +were really soldiers, and we patted ourselves on the back.</p> + +<p>Sport, too, played a very big part in our training. The Army of to-day +recognizes the fact that athletics makes and keeps our youngsters fit +and well. Our Colonel recognized it from the start, and as we had +<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_30" id="Page_30">[30]</a></span>plenty of material to work upon we went right away with it. We had a +"soccer" team, a "rugger" team, and a cricket eleven. The records of +the matches we won, and the fact that very few defeats were notched up +against us, proves we had a perfect right to style ourselves "the +First Sportsman's Battalion, the 23rd (Service) Battalion Royal +Fusiliers."</p> + +<div class="img"><a name="imagep30a" id="imagep30a"></a> +<a href="images/imagep30a.jpg"> +<img border="0" src="images/imagep30a.jpg" width="85%" alt="THE CAMP: HORNCHURCH." /></a><br /> +<p class="cen" style="margin-top: .2em;">THE CAMP: HORNCHURCH.<span class="totoi"><a href="#toi">ToList</a></span></p> +</div> + + +<div class="img"><a name="imagep30b" id="imagep30b"></a> +<a href="images/imagep30b.jpg"> +<img border="0" src="images/imagep30b.jpg" width="85%" alt="INTERIOR OF A HUT: HORNCHURCH." /></a><br /> +<p class="cen" style="margin-top: .2em; margin-bottom: .2em;">INTERIOR OF A HUT: HORNCHURCH.<span class="totoi"><a href="#toi">ToList</a></span></p> + +<p class="right2" style="margin-top: .2em;">To face p. 30</p></div> + +<br /> + +<p>Scullers, footballers, boxers, runners, wrestlers, actors, musicians, +artists—all these could be had for the asking, and we drew upon them +liberally. We were given plenty of opportunities to indulge in our +passion for sport in the ordinary way, but the private who once asked +for leave in order to go grouse shooting didn't get it. It was +suggested he might put in a little time at the rifle range instead. No +restrictions, however, were put upon any early morning running +matches, and the football and cricket teams were helped in every way.</p> + +<p>To get back to the purely military side, however. We groused at the +amount of drills and night operations, to being hut orderlies, going +on guard, and so on. But we did them as a means to an end. Then we had +the rudest shock of all. We learnt we were to embark on the task of +digging trenches—somewhere in Essex! That put the lid on things, so +we considered. We, infantry soldiers, to dig trenches! It couldn't be +right. We thought the Engineers, or the Pioneers, or somebody else, +always did that. Our job was to carry a rifle, and to shoot Germans. +That's how the rank <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_31" id="Page_31">[31]</a></span>and file looked at it in the first place. Of +course they discovered other things when the Battalion got to France, +but that's another story.</p> + +<p>However, it had to be done and, like everything else, it <i>was</i> done. +After an early breakfast, the company detailed fell in and marched off +to the station. After a while, a special train arrived and we +scrambled in. In the interim, it may be mentioned, packed trains +proceeding cityward went by, the passengers cheering us. That passed +the time if it did nothing else.</p> + +<p>Nearly an hour in the train, a march of perhaps a couple of miles, and +we reached our objective. Mysterious personages, with a big "G.R." in +gold on scarlet armlets popped up from somewhere, produced plans, and +informed our Company Officer that trenches had to be dug at such and +such a place. As a rule it was somewhere where the water from an +adjacent brook would percolate through the earth and make things +uncomfortable. That's by the way, though, and after all it was good +practice, this working out a method of trench drainage on our own. As +a matter of fact we had a lot of Civil and Colonial Engineers in our +ranks, and so we put all the mistakes made by the others right. +Whenever possible, of course. One or two things, it must be admitted, +beat us.</p> + +<p>Sometimes it rained, sometimes it snowed, occasionally, very +occasionally, it happened to be fine. But we got on with our work, +waiting for the bugler to blow for the midday lunch. When "cookhouse" +went we <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_32" id="Page_32">[32]</a></span>straightened our backs, got <i>some</i> of the mud off our boots, +and proceeded to take what the gods (in this case the quartermaster) +were good enough to give us. We always had two guesses, and we were +always right. It was either bread and cheese, or bread and bully. If +we were fortunate we might be able to purchase beer at a local +hostelry, or Oxo at a village shop. If not so fortunate, the +waterbottle or, if again lucky, a pocket-flask was brought into +service.</p> + +<p><span class="sc">The Kindly Shopkeeper.</span>—Digressing for a moment, though, it +may be mentioned that the various shopkeepers were always very, very +good to us! They always supplied us with what we needed, if they had +it, and they never put the prices up to us! At least, not much. For +instance, if a resident could buy a pair of bootlaces for a penny, we +were only occasionally charged more than threepence. Other things were +in proportion, and Essex to-day has quite a lot of nice new shops, +unknown before the advent of the First Sportsman's Battalion. It is +pleasing to remember that a Navvy Battalion followed us!</p> + +<p>To resume the trench digging. As we were later complimented on the +quality of the work we did, we must have shone in the way of handling +the pick and the spade. At the end of our labours, when the "fall in" +was sounded, we were quite ready to say we were looking forward to a +hot meal in our huts in camp, where, outside, the breezes whispered +through the <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_33" id="Page_33">[33]</a></span>branches of the trees lining the drive, where the moon +silvered the tin roofs of our living quarters, and all was bright and +jolly—in the sergeants' mess!</p> + +<p>So time sped away, and still we kept on wondering if we were +forgotten. We sat by the fires in "stoves, hot, combustion slow," and +we told the tale of the two highly placed War Office officials who +were discussing the war years after it had finished. One had asked the +other how the Sportsman's Battalion had shaped in "the Great +Adventure," and then would come the climax. "Good God!" the other +would say, "I've forgotten them. They're still at Hornchurch!"</p> + +<p>All things have to come to a finish though, and so we found. We had +night attacks, some three and four day route marches, even a +recruiting march through Barking and its neighbourhood, we did our +shooting tests, got through our bayonet exercises, had battalion drill +in the early mornings, with a fair amount of ceremonial drill thrown +in as a makeweight, and then came the rumour that a real big move was +to be made, such a move that the departure for the Front could not be +long delayed.</p> + +<p>This was the move to Clipstone Camp for brigade training. We had heard +so many rumours previously that we did not believe this, the latest, +at first. But it was correct, and at last the Battalion, formed up in +hollow square, was found on the parade ground at Grey Towers, where +the Rector of Hornchurch bade us God speed and good cheer.</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_34" id="Page_34">[34]</a></span>A few days later the Battalion, leaving two companies behind as depot +companies, entrained at Hornchurch for the new camp at Clipstone.</p> + +<p>There it went through brigade training, was equipped with its +regimental transport, and afterwards moved to Candahar Barracks, +Tidworth, to undergo divisional training with the 33rd Division, of +which it formed a part.</p> + +<p>Finally, after being reviewed with the Division by Queen Mary, acting +in place of His Majesty the King, who was suffering from his accident +sustained in France, all was in readiness for the next and biggest +move of all.</p> + +<br /> +<br /> +<br /> +<br /> +<a name="SERVICE_OVERSEAS" id="SERVICE_OVERSEAS"></a><hr /> +<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_35" id="Page_35">[35]</a></span><br /> +<br /> +<br /> +<br /> + +<h2>SERVICE OVERSEAS—HEAVY FIGHTING ALL ALONG <br />THE +FRONT, AND A TRIUMPHAL MARCH INTO GERMANY.</h2> + +<br /> +<br /> +<br /> +<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_36" id="Page_36">[36]</a></span><br /> +<hr /> +<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_37" id="Page_37">[37]</a></span><br /> + +<h3>SERVICE OVERSEAS—HEAVY FIGHTING ALL ALONG <br /> +THE FRONT, AND A TRIUMPHAL MARCH INTO GERMANY.<span class="totoc"><a href="#toc">ToC</a></span></h3> +<br /> + +<p>The day of the move overseas arrived. This was on November 15, 1915, +when the regimental transport entrained at Tidworth for Havre, +followed one day later by the Battalion, which proceeded to +Folkestone, Boulogne being reached on November 17, Ostrohove Rest Camp +being the first objective. No time, however, was wasted there, for on +November 18 the Battalion entrained at Pont-de-Briques, joining the +transport which had come up from Havre.</p> + +<p>It was at Steenbecque, reached a day later, and where billets were +found in barns and farmhouses, that the sound of artillery in action +was first heard by the Battalion. Four days were occupied here in +sorting things out generally, the companies parading, route marching, +and being inspected.</p> + +<p>On November 23 a move was made to Busnes, the first part of the route +being over badly cut up second-class roads, and the remainder on pavé. +The men, the war diary tells us, marching in greatcoats, and carrying +blankets, found the march very trying. <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_38" id="Page_38">[38]</a></span>Billets in the area La +Miquellerie were reached at 3 p.m. Distance, 11½ miles.</p> + +<p>Then came a very important thing from a soldier's point of view. Pay +was drawn from the Field Cashier, and distributed for the first time +in France. Next came the notification that in conformation with the +policy of re-forming the 33rd and the 2nd Divisions by forming +brigades, each consisting of two new battalions and two regular +battalions, the 99th Brigade was to lose the 17th and 24th Battalions +Royal Fusiliers, receive the 1st Royal Berks and the 1st King's Royal +Rifle Corps and join the 2nd Division.</p> + +<p>On November 25 the Battalion paraded to march to their new billets at +Bethune, being inspected <i>en route</i> by General Walker and the Staff of +the 2nd Division. General Walker's opinion was that the 23rd Royal +Fusiliers was one of the best battalions he had seen in Bethune.</p> + +<p>Still moving, on November 26 the Battalion marched to Annequin, Fosse +9, and owing to the road being frequently shelled, orders were given +that seventy-pace intervals should be kept between platoons east of +Beuvry. To improve matters, it may be mentioned, there was a heavy +fall of snow, and in the portion of the village south of La Basse the +majority of the houses were in ruins, the result of frequent +bombardments by the enemy.</p> + +<p>Then began the first experience of the Battalion in warfare. Before +being trusted to hold a line by itself <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_39" id="Page_39">[39]</a></span>it had to serve an +apprenticeship. This was done by attaching, in the first place, +platoons, then companies, and then the half-battalion to battalions in +the line in order to learn the work and what was expected of them.</p> + +<p>During this time much kindness was experienced from the regular +battalions to which the attachments were made. The units of the +Battalion not doing attachment duty were used for working parties in +the trenches and suffered several casualties. No. 2 platoon, right +flank company, specially suffered, being caught by shrapnel fire on +the Bethune-La Basse road, ten N.C.O.'s and men being wounded.</p> + +<p>On December 10 instruction in the use of the gas helmet was given. +Every man was required to pass through a hut sprayed with chlorine gas +ten times as strong as would be used on ordinary occasions, General +Kellett being present while this was being carried out, and himself +going through the test.</p> + +<p>So things went on until December 19. On that date the Battalion +marched to Cambrin support point to relieve the 1st Royal Berks and +take over a sector "on its own." In the trenches, No. 1 Company was on +the right, adjoining the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps, No. 2 Company +on the left, adjoining the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, No. 3 +Company was in the centre, and No. 4 Company was in support at +Annequin (Fosse).</p> + +<p>It was a very busy time, for No. 3 Company held <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_40" id="Page_40">[40]</a></span>command of the sap +head at New Crater, a spot where German snipers were particularly +troublesome. A gas attack was ordered upon the enemy, but, much to the +disappointment of the officers and men, it proved a "wash-out" owing +to the breeze dying down at the last moment. On December 21, however, +as the wind was favourable, a gas attack took place on a front of +about a mile. It was on this day that Captain Cameron, of No. 1 +Company, was wounded in the arm by a piece of high-explosive while +entering the front line.</p> + +<p>Then the Battalion, less No. 4 Company, was relieved by the 1st Royal +Berks, and proceeded to reserve billets at Annequin (Fosse) on +December 22. Not for complete rest, though, as it is generally +understood by the civilian, for working parties had to be detailed; +indeed, on December 24 all four companies were out, less sick and +those on duty. And, says the war diary, no straw was provided for the +billets, no coke, coal, or wood for the drying-room, and no facilities +for drying or cleaning clothes.</p> + +<p><span class="sc">Christmas Day in the Trenches</span>—On Christmas Day the Battalion +paraded for trench duty to relieve the 1st Royal Berks, the trenches +taken over being the same as were occupied on December 19-22, with the +alteration in disposition that made No. 4 Company replace No. 3 +Company in the centre.</p> + +<p>There was also a special bombardment on this day, and the Battalion's +first patrol, consisting of four men and an officer, went over the +parapet, being out in <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_41" id="Page_41">[41]</a></span>No Man's Land for an hour. During that time the +party located a sniper's post, cut out some wire from the enemy's +entanglements, and were persistently sniped at themselves, while great +difficulty was experienced in maintaining direction.</p> + +<p>Then, on Boxing Day, Colonel Lord Maitland was wounded in the knee by +a piece of high-explosive while proceeding to the 99th Brigade +Headquarters via Cambrin Church.</p> + +<p>The German snipers continued their activity, there were intermittent +bombardments, several casualties were sustained, and on December 29 +the Battalion was relieved by the 18th Royal Fusiliers. Owing to the +bad state of the trenches this relief did not take place until 5.10 +p.m., although it was due to be effected at 3 p.m.</p> + +<p>Still, the Battalion got back to its billets at Annequin (Fosse), and +on December 30 marched back to Busnettes for sixteen days' divisional +rest.

The front line and +support line garrisons, it may be noted, had to take up their +positions over the top, and so could not be visited in daylight. The +position remained the same until the then Kaiser's birthday, on +January 27, when although the order for relief was given at 6 p.m., a +"stand to" was ordered in anticipation of an attack.</p> + +<p>This did not come off, and, the relief by the 24th Royal Fusiliers +being effected, the Battalion marched back to Bethune on January 28, +where the billets were inspected by General Kellett.</p> + +<p>On January 29 Colonel Lord Maitland relinquished the command of the +Battalion, temporary command being taken by Major Richey, D.S.O., and +Lieutenant-Colonel H.A.

On the 17th the Battalion was relieved by the +16th Royal Welsh Fusiliers and moved to Le Quesnoy, remaining there +until the 27th, when it proceeded to Barlin. On February 28 another +move was made to Petit Sains, relieving the 22nd Royal Fusiliers, and +on the 29th the Battalion took over the Souchez North sector of +trenches from the French 77th Infantry Regiment.</p> + +<p>From March 1 to March 13 the Battalion held the line at Souchez North +in turn with the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps and on the latter date +proceeded to billets at Noulette, returning again to the trenches on +the 17th, the Battalion on the left being the 17th Royal Fusiliers, +and on the right the 1st Royal Berks. Then on March 28 it moved to La +Comte for divisional rest.</p> + +<p>Reclinghem was the next move, made on April 9, and on April 11 there +was a Brigade field day, another reinforcing draft arriving on the +same day.

Working <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_44" id="Page_44">[44]</a></span>parties +were naturally provided for the trenches while the Battalion was +resting, and two men were accidentally wounded on the 4th. But things +were moderately quiet until the night of June 10-11.

Pirie assuming +command of the Battalion until he returned to duty. The Battalion was +relieved by the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps on the night of June +22-23, and proceeded to billets at Villiers aux Bois. The next move, +on the 27th, was made to Estrée Cauchie.</p> + +<p><span class="sc">The Somme Fighting.</span>—Then came the move to the Somme and the +July of 1916, when the average life of the infantry subaltern in +France was only worth three weeks. Many, indeed, were killed within a +week of their crossing the Channel, on the very first day of entering +the trenches and taking part in the British advance. The 23rd Royal +Fusiliers were engaged in the whole of the desperate fighting on the +Somme, including the battle of Delville Wood, the story of which is +told in another part of this volume.</p> + +<p>Following this bath of blood, on August 1 the Battalion left Bund +support trench, two companies going to Longueval Alley, and two +remaining to garrison and dig trenches at Montauban.</p> + +<p>Becoming united again, on the 29th the Battalion, <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_45" id="Page_45">[45]</a></span>under the +impression that it was going out for a promised rest after its battle, +moved to The Citadel, Sandpit Valley, and on to Mericourt l'Abbé; +thence on to Fremont (passing through Amiens), Naours, Longuevillette, +Authie, and Bus les Artois; and next, instead of the longed-for rest, +found itself back in the trenches again at Hebuterne, relieving the +1st Coldstream Guards!</p> + +<p>September was spent in the Hebuterne sector, and October saw many +moves.

On the +following day eight <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_55" id="Page_55">[55]</a></span>small patrols were established in No Man's Land +to cover work in the trenches, and, ensuing upon this, the German +artillery became fairly active.</p> + +<p>A move into support, following relief, was made on September 2.

More training ensued, and a strong rumour was in +the air that the 2nd Division was "for Italy." The Battalion was +equipped up to the last button, all ranks were looking forward to a +change of scenery and new phases of fighting; the medical officer +lectured the Battalion on the perils to be avoided in relation to +charming Italians, and spirits were high and merry.</p> + +<p>But the first attack on Cambrai took place, and instead of going to +Italy the 2nd Division was hurriedly moved south by road and rail to +take over the line from troops which had conducted the attack.</p> + +<p>On the night of November 26-27 the Battalion had reached +Beaumetz-les-Cambrai, from which it was moved up to the slopes of +Bourlon Wood to take over from elements of the 2/4th King's Own +Yorkshire Light Infantry and the Bays. The march along the Cambrai +road, across the captured Hindenburg Line, and on to <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_56" id="Page_56">[56]</a></span>the Sugar +Factory will long be remembered by those who took part in it.</p> + +<p>Again it snowed—it is curious how many important moves of the +Battalion took place in a snowstorm. This time, however, it was a +blessing, for it deadened the sound of moving troops, and certainly +saved the Battalion being heard and shelled by the enemy.</p> + +<p>On the line (if a few scattered posts in shell-holes can be called a +line) being taken over, the Battalion at once set to work to dig +itself in, profiting greatly by the recent training it had received in +"intensive digging." On the left was the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps, +and on the right the 62nd Division, the battalion in support being the +1st Royal Berks. The Battalion held the line on the 27th, and on the +28th changed places with the 1st Royal Berks, going into support +positions to them.</p> + +<p>On the 30th the heavy enemy attack developed, and the Berks being hard +pressed, three companies of the 23rd were moved up to their support. +The enemy gained a footing in their line, and one company of the 23rd +was used to counter-attack and re-establish the line, which it +successfully performed.</p> + +<p>The 17th Royal Fusiliers, on the Berks' left, having severe fighting, +a section of the 23rd was sent to strengthen their posts, and help was +given in supplying them with bombs and S.A.A. On the evening of +December 1 the line was readjusted between the 1st Royal Berks and the +23rd Royal Fusiliers—the <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_57" id="Page_57">[57]</a></span>Berks taking the left and the 23rd the +right. On the night of December 1 the position of the Battalion was: +two companies and two platoons in the line; two companies, less two +platoons, in support.</p> + +<p>On the night of December 2 the unit on the right of the 23rd Royal +Fusiliers pushed forward its line. In order to keep touch with them, +one company from the support positions went over with them at 8.10 +p.m. The advance was successful, the objective duly gained and rapidly +consolidated—one prisoner and one machine gun being taken in the +advance.</p> + +<p>Then came a great disappointment to the troops who had fought so well. +Further south the enemy's counter-attack had proved successful, +converting the position held by the 2nd Division into a very dangerous +salient, from which it was imperative to retire.</p> + +<p>The necessary orders were issued, and at dead of night, December 4-5, +the Battalion retired through Graincourt to Hermies. To cover the +retirement two sections per company were left in the line with orders +not to retire until just before dawn, and to spend the night in moving +up and down the vacated line, firing Verey-lights and rifles to delude +the enemy into thinking the line was still held.</p> + +<p>By this ruse the Battalion was enabled to carry out the difficult +operation of withdrawing in the face of the enemy without his +knowledge. The sections so left behind gallantly carried out their +tasks and safely rejoined the Battalion at Hermies.</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_58" id="Page_58">[58]</a></span>From December 5 the Battalion was in support, but on the 11th it +relieved the 21st Londons in the Hindenburg Line, and, after relief, +marched on December 20 to Gropi Camp, where Christmas was spent in +tents in the snow. In reserve until the 30th, it then relieved the +22nd Royal Fusiliers in the left canal sector (Canal du Nord) of the +Hindenburg Line.</p> + +<br /> + +<h4>1918.</h4> + +<p>On January 3 the Battalion, relieved, marched independently by +companies to Barastre for Divisional rest. January 23 found them at +Villers Plouich in the Vacquerie right sub-sector, the Battalion +headquarters being in Farm Ravine. On February 3 they entrained on the +light railway for Equancourt, where they were placed in Divisional +reserve. Not much time was spent in this way, though, for on the 9th +the Battalion entrained for Trescault, and proceeded from there to the +Vacquerie right sub-sector, remaining in the line there until going +into reserve at Equancourt again on the 15th.</p> + +<p>On February 22 a move was made to the line again in the Vacquerie +right sub-sector. On the night of March 6-7 the Battalion was +relieved, and marched to Metz, where they were billeted in huts. It +was impossible, however, to secure any real rest here, for the camp +was shelled intermittently both during the day and the night.</p> + +<p>The afternoon of March 12 saw the Battalion back <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_59" id="Page_59">[59]</a></span>in the trenches +again at Lincoln Reserve and Midland Reserve, "D" Company being in +Snap Trench. There was a heavy gas-shell bombardment by the enemy on +the nights of the 12th, 13th, and 14th, the Battalion suffering heavy +casualties, also intermittent shelling during the day and night, while +there was, as a welcome change, a raid on the enemy front line by the +Battalion on the night of March 13-14. Then came the relief of the +Battalion, which marched back to Equancourt, a rest for the Battalion +being absolutely necessary owing to the fact that all the remaining +members were suffering from gas poisoning.</p> + +<p><span class="sc">The German Offensive.</span>—Next came the great offensive by the +enemy—the time when the Germans almost thrust their way right through +by force of numbers.</p> + +<p>The first indication of the break-through which the Battalion received +was enemy bullets actually falling in the camp. Every man turned out, +the Battalion took up a line north of Equancourt in an attempt to hold +up the advance of the enemy, patrols being sent forward into Fins, +where it was found the Germans had succeeded in establishing +themselves.</p> + +<p>On the following morning an enemy attack was beaten back with heavy +loss, but both its flanks being "in the air" the Battalion received +orders to retire on Le Transloy. Moving though Hayettes Wood, Ytres, +Bus, and Rocquigny, Le Transloy was reached late at night, where the +Brigade from which it had become separated was rejoined.</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_60" id="Page_60">[60]</a></span>Moving again before dawn, a line was taken up round Gueudecourt, which +was held during the day. Making another move at dusk, a fresh line was +established at Eaucourt l'Abbaye. Very heavily attacked on the +following day, the Battalion was forced to fight a rearguard action, +retreating through Le Sars on Pys, where another stand was made.</p> + +<p>Again slipping back at night, a position was taken up near Beaucourt +sur Ancre. From this position the Battalion again moved back and +occupied the old British trenches known as White City trenches near +Beaumont Hamel. In spite of many heavy enemy attacks this position was +held until the Battalion was relieved by New Zealand troops.</p> + +<p><i>On relief it marched out to the wood at Mailly-Maillet only four +officers and seventy men strong.</i></p> + +<p>Resting at Englebelmer for a day or so, it was again moved into the +front line at Aveluy Wood, where a German attack was beaten off, the +enemy being badly mauled. During the fighting round Gueudecourt, +Brigadier-General Barnett-Barker was killed, and, as senior Colonel in +the 99th Brigade, Lieutenant-Colonel Winter assumed command, the +command of the 23rd Royal Fusiliers devolving upon Major Lewis.</p> + +<p>In his anxiety to hold up the enemy for as long as possible and to get +the battalion back safely to a line being formed behind him, Major +Lewis was taken prisoner at Eaucourt l'Abbaye.

Lewis, D.S.O., M.C.:</p> + +<p>"For two days before the fight the Battalion occupied some trenches +near Bernefay Wood, and sustained a number of casualties from +shell-fire. Battalion headquarters was a shelter dug in a bank at the +side of Bernefay Wood. This shelter was constructed by Albany, the +sculler, and as he was killed in the fight it was his last job as +dug-out constructor. Needless to say, he did this job excellently.</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_84" id="Page_84">[84]</a></span>"For some hours before the Battalion moved off to take up its +position, the Huns shelled the area with gas shells. Fortunately, +however, just before 11 p.m., the time for starting, a breeze sprang +up, and we were able to move without wearing gas masks.</p> + +<p>"The move up was not pleasant. The area had been much fought over, it +had been impossible to bury the dead for ten days, and it was a hot +July!</p> + +<p>"Our artillery was firing to cover our move up. Just after passing +Longueval one of our shells dropped, unfortunately, near the platoon +which, with the C.O., I was following. As luck would have it, though, +only one man was badly wounded. The platoon, of course, went on, and +the C.O. went over to the man who had been hit.</p> + +<p>"'It's hard lines, sir,' said the man.</p> + +<p>"'I know it is,' said the C.O., 'but you will soon be all right. The +stretcher-bearers are coming.'</p> + +<p>"'Oh, it's not that,' was the man's rejoinder. 'It's being hit now! +Here have I been all this time in France without having a real go at +the b——s, and now the chance has come, here I go and get knocked +out.'</p> + +<p>"The C.O. made only one remark to me as we passed on. It was: 'Well, +if that's what the rest of the Battalion feels, I have no fears for +to-morrow.'</p> + +<p>"We took up our position in a trench at the edge of the wood. This was +all that remained after the South Africans had been beaten back, and +our attack was to <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_85" id="Page_85">[85]</a></span>start at dawn on the following morning. This attack +was in two parts, two companies to take the first objective, a trench +in the centre of the wood, and two companies to capture the far edge, +and dig themselves in there. The 1/60th were on our right, each +battalion having half the wood allotted to it.</p> + +<p>"The waves formed up in position shortly before dawn, and it was our +first experience of going over the top as a battalion. The men, +however, were quite cool and cheerful; in fact, one, named Lewis +Turner, asked me, 'How long to go?' I looked at my watch, and said, +'Five minutes.' His reply was, 'Oh, then I've time to finish my +breakfast.' And he did.</p> + +<p>"At zero our barrage started, and our first waves were off, the thing +I noticed most being that most of the men were smoking as they went +over. The whole wood was immediately full of machine-gun bullets. +There must have been hundreds of machine guns—up in trees, hidden in +the undergrowth, in fact all over the place. The Hun artillery came +down on all the approaches to the wood, but not on the wood itself so +long as any of their own men were in it.</p> + +<p>"Owing to the position of the wood, however, at the apex of a captured +triangle of ground, we received fire from both flanks, and also from +our right rear, as well as from the front.</p> + +<p>"The first objective was quickly taken, and then there was a pause +before the advance to the second. A large number of prisoners came in, +and were herded <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_86" id="Page_86">[86]</a></span>up near Battalion headquarters' trench. We then found +that we were up against the Brandenburg Regiment, which had been +specially sent up to hold the wood.</p> + +<p>"A number of these prisoners next got into a shell-hole near Battalion +headquarters, refusing to come farther, and one of the funniest sights +was to see our R.S.M., Sergeant-Major Powney, who, as a rule, was most +dignified, rush at them, and kick and cuff them out of it.</p> + +<p>"I said to him: 'Sergeant-Major, that's not your job.' He replied: 'I +know that, sir, but I couldn't help it.' Poor Powney was wounded later +in the day, and died of his wounds.</p> + +<p>"The advance to the second objective started promptly, but the Hun +fought hard for a time, and held us up. Every bush seemed to contain a +machine gun, and a redoubt on our left front caused us many +casualties. This redoubt contained several machine guns, with overhead +cover, and a first-aid post. As soon as the C.O. received news of this +check he sent up two reserve Lewis guns. These worked round the +redoubt, and, finding an opening, killed most of the garrison, and +then rushed it. The survivors fled, but Sergeant Royston found one of +their own guns was still in action, and finished them off with it.</p> + +<p>"<span class="sc">Dealing with Counter-Attacks.</span>—The final objective was +quickly reached and consolidated, and for a while our men had a +pleasant time dealing with <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_87" id="Page_87">[87]</a></span>counter-attacks from the front. The field +of fire was good, and they quickly dealt with all the attempts made to +push us back. Our casualties, though, were very heavy, particularly +amongst officers. At one time 'A' Company was commanded by +Lance-Corporal Goodman, and another company by a C.S.M.</p> + +<p>"Then the Hun artillery got busy on the wood, which was, of course, an +ideal mark. For the rest of the day they simply poured heavy shells +in. It was pretty terrible. Trees were torn up by the dozens, and fell +blazing. By the end of the day there was nothing but shattered stumps.</p> + +<p>"The Medical Officer had a busy time, and owing to the barrage could +not evacuate his wounded. The aid post was filled, and the overflow +had to be put in shell-holes round about. The consequence was that +many of them were killed as they lay there. Owing to the barrage, too, +the sending of messages back to Brigade headquarters and the companies +in front became almost impossible. Out of sixteen headquarter runners +no fewer than fourteen became casualties before mid-day.</p> + +<p>"One message was sent back by carrier pigeon, and a message received +from the Brigadier read: 'Hold on. Reinforcements are being sent.' The +reply of the C.O. was: 'Of course we shall hold on. We are being +hammered, but our tails are still up.'</p> + +<p>"As the day wore on many efforts were made to get round our flanks and +turn us out. Bombing <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_88" id="Page_88">[88]</a></span>parties crept up, and had to be dealt with by +our bombers. It was in one of these tussles that Jerry Delany (the +famous boxer) was killed.</p> + +<p>"At one time word came from our comrades on the right that the Hun had +broken through. So we sent over a party to their assistance, and +finally repelled the attackers. We spent the whole of the afternoon +and evening in this way, but when our relief came up that night we +handed over the wood intact.</p> + +<p>"The scene at night was awful, the wood being ablaze in many places. I +read messages and wrote out the relief orders by the light of a +blazing tree, which had fallen across the shell-hole then being +occupied by Battalion headquarters.</p> + +<p>"During the night our Brigadier came up and held a conference in our +shell-hole. One of our men, Corporal Walker, who was attached to the +Brigade Machine-Gun Company, came to this conference, and when asked +by the Brigadier what he wanted, replied: 'I have reason to believe, +sir, I now command the Machine-Gun Company.' This was actually the +case, and he brought the remnants out, being badly wounded in doing +so.</p> + +<p>"We were relieved by the 6th Brigade, and at dawn returned to our +quarters at Bernefay—that is to say, those of us who were left. Our +casualties were nearly 400, over 60 per cent, of those who went in. +Out of eighteen officers who went into the wood, thirteen became +casualties, every company commander being <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_89" id="Page_89">[89]</a></span>included in this number, +while the 1/60th suffered equally heavily.</p> + +<p>"As I was making out our casualty return in our headquarters' +shell-hole by the light of the blazing trees, our Quartermaster +appeared with the rations. He threw a newspaper down to me, with the +remark: 'You'll find something interesting in that.' I opened the +paper, and found a full column describing how the South Africans took +Delville Wood!</p> + +<p>"When we were moving back into support, I noticed a horrible smell, +and found it was due to the fact that almost every man was smoking a +Hun cigar, large quantities of which had been found in the trenches, +together with large quantities of soda-water.</p> + +<p>"One of the Hun officer prisoners remarked that our advance through +the wood was the finest thing they ever saw, but that he objected to +being captured by civilians."</p> + +<br /> +<hr style='width: 15%;' /> +<br /> + +<p><span class="sc">Some Lighter Stories.</span>—Another story of Delville Wood, +introducing the M.O.</p> + +<p>"During the Delville Wood show a captured Hun Red Cross man was +lending a hand in the Battalion aid post.

The personnel eventually thought fit to take shelter in an +adjacent shell-hole until the Hun had finished his unpleasant pranks.</p> + +<p>"Over came the fifth shell with a whistle and a scream, and—bang!—up +went the two carts in the air, while shell fragments flew all over the +place.

We tried French with him, and it had no result. Then, seeing he +was eyeing a water-bottle eagerly, I suddenly thought he might be +thirsty.</p> + +<p>"'Ask him if he would like a drink,' I suggested.</p> + +<p>"'I should,' came the reply, in quite as good English as I could have +spoken myself. Naturally I was surprised, and I asked him where he had +learnt his English.</p> + +<p>"'In London, sir,' was the rejoinder. 'I worked as a barber close to +Holborn for years.'</p> + +<p>"We gave him a little drink of whisky, and he told us there would be +no attack that night. But we took no chances.

BROOKS, THE SCHOOLMASTER"<span class="totoc"><a href="#toc">ToC</a></span></h3> +<br /> + +<p>"Reported missing."</p> + +<p>Many poignant memories attach to such a bald announcement as this. +Dead—probably a prisoner of war—perhaps. And there have been those +who would have preferred, had they had the chance, of a death under +the open sky to imprisonment under the Hun.</p> + +<p>In the diary of a 23rd Royal Fusilier, "Mr. Brooks, the schoolmaster," +as he was once dubbed by his captors, tells the story of how he was +made a prisoner, his detention by the enemy, and his eventual return +home.</p> + +<p>The arrival of a parcel, he says, was a red-letter event; the problem +of how much to eat at a time, and how much to save out of his rations +for the provision of another apology of a meal, was a big one. Boiled +nettles and dandelions for dinner and tea on Whit Sunday, 1917, proves +what the fare actually was; quarters of eggs were unaccustomed +luxuries. "I have picked mouldy crusts off the ground, and prunes off +dust-heaps," he says.</p> + +<p>Dry bread and tea was a luxurious meal; beards had to be cut, or +pulled out by means of borrowed scissors; <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_96" id="Page_96">[96]</a></span>one loaf, and a small one +at that, had to prove sufficient for the needs of five men; there were +occasional intervals of twenty-two hours between meals. "We were +thinking of nothing but food," he explains. All this time, too, the +prisoners were engaged in heavy manual work, humping bricks, loading +and stacking hay, and so on.</p> + +<p>While in hospital, "Mr. Brooks, the schoolmaster," sold his boots for +tobacco and his socks for bread, and he mixed his jam ration with +coffee in order to eke it out. "Personally, I am hungry all day long," +is how he describes his feelings. "I bought about one-sixth of a loaf +for seventeen cigarettes."</p> + +<p>"I was rather slow in getting into bed," is how he describes another +of his experiences, "and the German orderly picked up my satchel and +hurled it against the wall, open as it was, at the risk of spilling +its contents."</p> + +<p>He pays a deep tribute to the humanity of the French who were still +living in the occupied territory; the Belgians he met were also kind; +some Germans showed traces of feeling, others were no better than +brutes....</p> + +<p>Here, however, are actual extracts from the diary itself. They speak +for themselves.</p> + +<p>"Three or four Germans began to advance, and it seemed to me that the +question which had been at the back of my mind since a second or two +after the first opening of the guns, Was this the end? was about to be +answered....</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_97" id="Page_97">[97]</a></span>"With many signs to hasten, my German hurried me on. Soon, with three +others, I found myself by poor old Bill Shoebridge, a good old +grumbler of some fifty summers, who had been cruelly sent out to us in +December, and had kept his end up well, with, at times, many +grumblings. He was painfully hit above the knee....</p> + +<p>"We came to the village, yet unsmashed, but showing signs that it had +received a knock or two. OPPY was printed in black letters on white +boards in various places, and after wondering for some time what Oppy +meant I found it was the name of a place.... We were then marched off, +and after some more wandering found ourselves in a kitchen with two or +three Germans, who looked quite comfortable, well fed, and at home....</p> + +<p>"The Germans we saw almost all regarded us kindly, though many of them +had something of mockery in their looks. We now began to see a few of +the French inhabitants. They are splendid. Willingly they give us all +they can spare, and much that they cannot. Were it not for the fact +that they are not allowed to give, and that all their gifts have to be +<i>sub rosa</i>, we should, I think, want for little....</p> + +<p>"Then came the first unpleasant incident. A poor Frenchwoman rushed +out and gave a loaf to one of us. One of the guards, a boy of about +nineteen, snatched it out of his hands, and threw it on the pavement +in front of the woman.</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_98" id="Page_98">[98]</a></span>"At Phalemphin station we were all included in a party of eighty. We +were addressed in English by a German officer. The gist of his remarks +was that we were to be marched to our destination, and that any man +who tried to escape would be incontinently shot, also that any man who +did not behave would be punished....</p> + +<p>"After this day, Saturday, April 28, for more than five and a half +weeks, day in and day out, we left our prison between 6.15 and 6.40, +struck work and returned for dinner between 11.15 and 1.30, according +to the job, left the prison at 1.30 (if we had not arrived for dinner +until after 1 we got extra time), and struck work any time between +5.30 and 10.30....</p> + +<p>"In our (British) lines if one (a prisoner of war) has to work extra +time, one always gets time off to compensate, also one has plenty of +food to work on. Here, extra work carried no compensations. The work, +especially latterly, was mainly unloading trucks, pushing the trucks +about, and packing the contents of the trucks in various stores.</p> + +<p>"In the yard were always parties of French and Belgians working, and, +if allowed, they would have given us their souls. At the commencement +of our stay, however, we were told to take nothing from the French, +and it was certainly not many days before we found it was almost +impossible to take anything from them because the penalty was so +great. Whenever <span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_99" id="Page_99">[99]</a></span>the French and the Belgians did get a chance they +availed themselves of it....</p> + +<p>"Let us never forget that we also got things from the Germans. Until +we reached Phalemphin we had received no rough or cruel treatment +whatever....</p> + +<p>"At Douai our gaolers were without exception friendly and kind; at +Lille our gaolers were taciturn, and when they did speak, though loud +and threatening in words, laid hands on no man. We were, therefore, +expecting no man-handling, and it came as a fearful shock. It is my +impression that man-handling began in about four days' time, but it +may be that some smaller incident, such as being thumped in the back +by the guard, had passed unnoticed as being mere playfulness on their +part.</p> + +<p>"As to man-handling, it began slowly and increased in frequency, and I +think in severity, as the time went on, until, to me at any rate, it +became somewhat of a nightmare. Within a week of our arrival at +Phalemphin the guard would rush at, beat, strike, or kick any man who +had a pipe or cigarette in his mouth while we were being counted in +the yard....</p> + +<p>"Suddenly the man in charge in that part of the yard appeared. It was +the first time I had seen him. Judging from first impressions, he was +a quiet, self-contained, steady kind of man, rather like the great +'Agrippa' in 'Shock-headed Peter' to look at.... Suddenly the man +changed, and with a sudden rush was amongst us.</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_100" id="Page_100">[100]</a></span>"'Agrippa,' thinking he was being disparaged, flew at Barber and +struck him violently two or three times in the face. One of our +sergeants, named Morley, remonstrated, and in a second 'Agrippa' had +struck him two or three times in the face....</p> + +<p>"I don't know what you would think of one and a half spoonfuls of jam, +or grease, or preserved meat, or half an uncooked herring for the only +thing to eat daily in addition to dry bread and a bowl of soup at +midday, but such are our rations, and I can tell you that by now one +has got to look forward to the day's issue as a very big thing....</p> + +<p>"The first 'tying up' shows him, the sergeant-major, at his best as a +wise judge, jury, and executioner.... The method of tying up was as +follows: In the garden behind our barn were some trees. The man had to +stand with his feet close together and his back to the tree; he was +then tied to the tree by a strap round the ankles.</p> + +<p>"His hands were tied together behind his back and the strap passed +round the tree. The third strap was the worst; it was tied round the +man's neck, and tied tightly round the tree, so that the back of the +man's head was against the tree.</p> + +<p>"Of course, a good deal depended upon the guard—some guards would tie +all the straps lightly, some would tie some men tight and others +loose, and so on. The most popular tree for tying men up to was not +<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_101" id="Page_101">[101]</a></span>straight, so that being tied up tightly to it was no joke, as I can +vouch for....</p> + +<p>"A favourite pastime of the sergeant-major was to come and watch the +men at work. Then, indeed, did everyone buck up.... On one occasion I +saw him mercilessly belabour an Australian boy with his stick. The boy +had not been able to respond quickly enough to his order.</p> + +<p>"Well, it is six months to-morrow since I had an English meal. (This +is written in hospital.) The last three days I have tried the tip of +having a drink of coffee at breakfast-time, and having my breakfast +between 8.30 and 10, but I don't know that it is any better. Strange +are the ways of this hospital—no soap and no clean bedding since I +came in.</p> + +<p>"Sometimes peace and go as you please, sometimes every little rule +fussed about. Clothes and food are not in any way satisfactory, but +one is getting a rest, and that is what one should remember.... +Suspense. Waiting with, oh, how many hopes and fears, for that parcel +to turn up. Hungrier and hungrier, and with the dread of tobacco +running out...."</p> + +<p>Then in conclusion comes a pathetic little personal note.</p> + +<p>"I have never read this through since I returned in December, 1918. +Seeing the mention of Bull a few pages back reminds me that I +afterwards heard he had died in hospital. I wrote to his wife on my +return, and found she was a widow.</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_102" id="Page_102">[102]</a></span>"The Germans reported that her husband had died from wounds in Mons +Hospital. I was with him all through August, and he had no wounds. I +saw him in hospital in November, and he had no wounds, only boils. So +I do not see how he died of wounds."</p> + +<br /> +<br /> +<br /> +<br /> +<a name="THE_HONOURS_LIST" id="THE_HONOURS_LIST"></a><hr /> +<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_103" id="Page_103">[103]</a></span><br /> +<br /> +<br /> +<br /> + +<h2>THE HONOURS' LIST</h2> + +<h3>NAMES OF OFFICERS AND MEN AWARDED DECORATIONS <br />AND +MENTIONED IN DESPATCHES</h3> + +<br /> +<br /> +<br /> +<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_104" id="Page_104">[104]</a></span><br /> +<hr /> +<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_105" id="Page_105">[105]</a></span><br /> + +<h3>THE HONOURS' LIST<span class="totoc"><a href="#toc">ToC</a></span></h3> + +<h3>OFFICERS</h3> +<br /> + +<div class="centered"> +<table border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0" width="90%" summary="THE HONOURS' LIST: OFFICERS"> + <tr> + <td width="12%" class="tdcb" style="border-top: solid 2px black; border-bottom: solid 2px black; border-left: solid 2px black;"><i>Rank.</i></td> + <td width="33%" class="tdcb" style="border-top: solid 2px black; border-bottom: solid 2px black; border-right: solid 1px black; border-left: solid 1px black;"><i>Name.</i></td> + <td width="10%" class="tdcb" style="border-top: solid 2px black; border-bottom: solid 2px black; border-right: solid 1px black; border-left: solid 1px black;"><i>Date of Award or Mention.</i></td> + <td width="45%" class="tdcb" style="border-top: solid 2px black; border-bottom: solid 2px black; border-right: solid 2px black;"><i>Decoration, etc.</i></td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td class="tdll" style="padding-top: .5em;">Capt.</td> + <td class="tdlbp" style="padding-top: .5em;">Bull, F.G.</td> + <td class="tdrbp" style="padding-top: .5em;"> 4. 6.17</td> + <td class="tdlr" style="padding-top: .5em;">Military Cross</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td class="tdll">Capt.</td> + <td class="tdlbp">Bull, F.G.</td> + <td class="tdrbp">26. 7.17</td> + <td class="tdlr">Bar to M.C.</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td class="tdll">Major</td> + <td class="tdlbp">Bowyer, C.H.</td> + <td class="tdrbp"> 4. 4.17</td> + <td class="tdlr">Chevalier de la Coronne</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td class="tdll">Major</td> + <td class="tdlbp">Bowyer, C.H.</td> + <td class="tdrbp">13. 3.18</td> + <td class="tdlr">D.S.O.</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td class="tdll">Capt.</td> + <td class="tdlbp">Barr, A.J.</td> + <td class="tdrbp">11. 5.17</td> + <td class="tdlr">Military Cross</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td class="tdll">Lieut.</td> + <td class="tdlbp">Colman, L.H.</td> + <td class="tdrbp"> 9. 4.17</td> + <td class="tdlr">Mentioned in Despatches</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td class="tdll">Capt.</td> + <td class="tdlbp">Gardner, A.S.</td> + <td class="tdrbp">17. 4.17</td> + <td class="tdlr">Military Cross</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td class="tdll">Capt.</td> + <td class="tdlbp">Humfrey, A.A.P.</td> + <td class="tdrbp">13. 2.17</td> + <td class="tdlr">Military Cross</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td class="tdll">Capt.</td> + <td class="tdlbp">Humfrey, A.A.P.</td> + <td class="tdrbp">17. 4.17</td> + <td class="tdlr">Bar to M.C.</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td class="tdll">Capt.</td> + <td class="tdlbp">Hilder, M.L.</td> + <td class="tdrbp">11. 5.17</td> + <td class="tdlr">Military Cross</td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td class="tdll">Capt.</td> + <td class="tdlbp">Isaac, E.E.

If an +individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are +located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from +copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative +works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg +are removed. Of course, we hope that you will support the Project +Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by +freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of +this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with +the work. You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by +keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project +Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others. + +1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern +what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are in +a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States, check +the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement +before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or +creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project +Gutenberg-tm work. The Foundation makes no representations concerning +the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United +States. + +1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg: + +1.E.1.

If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived +from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is +posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied +and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees +or charges. If you are redistributing or providing access to a work +with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the +work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1 +through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the +Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or +1.E.9. + +1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted +with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution +must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional +terms imposed by the copyright holder.

Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable +effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread +public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm +collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain +"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or +corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual +property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a +computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by +your equipment. + +1.F.2.

YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE +TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE +LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR +INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH +DAMAGE. + +1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a +defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can +receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a +written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you +received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with +your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with +the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a +refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity +providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to +receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy +is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further +opportunities to fix the problem. + +1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth +in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER +WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO +WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE. + +1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied +warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages. +If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the +law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be +interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by +the applicable state law.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

PEREIRA, K.C.B., C.M.G. + +The history of any New Army battalion is a valuable contribution to +the history of the war. This applies particularly to a battalion like +the 23rd Royal Fusiliers, which achieved a high morale and maintained +excellent discipline throughout the war. + +At the Front our only knowledge of the New Army before they came +overseas was gained from the Brigade Staffs and Commanding Officers of +the new Formations, who were sent over for short attachment to troops +in the line. + +We learnt from them the great difficulties that had to be overcome in +raising new units, with very few officers, warrant officers, and +N.C.O.'s to lead the new force and instruct them in military routine. +Without exception they were filled with admiration of the physique, +intelligence, and spirit of the men who had rushed to arms in those +dark early days of the war. + +It was evidently the flower of the nation that came forward, and +probably in the history of all wars such magnificent material has +never been equalled. + +My acquaintance with the 23rd Battalion Royal Fusiliers extended from +the end of 1916 to March, 1919, when the Battalion left the 2nd +Division, and it is interesting to look back at my first impression of +the Battalion, as I had not previously had any New Army battalions +under my command. Regular battalions have the pride of history to +sustain them, and traditions to live up to, but here I found a +battalion not two years old, with its history in the making, but with +the same spirit and self-consciousness that one finds in the old +formations. + +Those who have not had considerable experience of troops in peace and +war may imagine that regiments are, at all times, sustained by a great +pride in their past, and a determination to live up to it. Alas! in +some cases this spirit dies away in adversity. I have seen the 23rd +Royal Fusiliers in good times and in bad, and I have never found them +downhearted. + +When out for a few weeks' rest and training, in pleasant surroundings, +their work and play were carried out with much life and zest. + +In the fighting in the Cambrai salient, in the Bourlon-Moeuvres +Ridge, on November 30, 1917, when the 2nd Division defeated six +successive attacks on their line, the 23rd Royal Fusiliers at the end +of the day held their line intact. This action was followed two days +later by a withdrawal which was necessary to get us out of a sharp +salient. This entailed very hard work and constant trench fighting, +extending over several days. The troops were very exhausted from the +extremely heavy calls that had been made on them, but after a few +days' rest it was almost incredible how rapidly they had thrown off +their fatigue and how good their spirits were. + +They knew they had killed large numbers of Germans, and had +successfully defeated a German attack which, if successful, would have +been a great disaster for the British. + +A more trying time was the March retreat in 1918. Lieutenant-Colonel +Winter had lost his voice from the effect of several days of very +heavy gas shelling of the Highland Ridge just before the Germans +launched their attack, and he was voiceless for the next ten days. A +large proportion of his Battalion were similarly affected, but time +after time during the retreat they turned and fought, and inflicted +heavy losses on the enemy until they did their share in repelling a +heavy attack at Beaumont Hamel, where the Germans were finally held. + +It was the spirit of such battalions as the 23rd Royal Fusiliers that +broke the German offensive, and the marvellous power of recuperation +that they had, given a few days to rest and sleep. + +In the offensive operations that lasted from August 21, 1918, to the +Armistice, the Battalion delivered many successful attacks with +undiminished dash and courage, and it was a proud day when I saw them +march through the Square in Duren with fixed bayonets, headed by the +few Regimental pipers that had been through the war with them since +their formation. + +Well had they earned their Victory March into Germany, and +Lieutenant-Colonel Winter was justified in his great pride in their +fine appearance and magnificent transport. + +In conclusion I must pay a tribute to the private soldiers, the +non-commissioned officers, and the young officers, who, year in and +year out, faced death and the greatest of hardships with that dogged +courage that has always broken the hearts of our enemies. The saying +that the British soldier never knows when he is beaten has never been +truer than in this war. + +My hope is that histories such as this may have a wide circulation, so +that mothers, wives, and children may know what their men have done +for their country, what dangers they have faced, and what vast +sacrifices they cheerfully made. + + + + +FROM MAJOR-GENERAL R.O. KELLETT, C.B., C.M.G. + +The story of the 23rd Battalion Royal Fusiliers cannot fail to be a +fine one. Every soldier who, like myself, had the honour of fighting, +I may say, shoulder to shoulder with it, will read its history with +the deepest interest. + +As its first Brigadier, I took up that appointment on December 19, +1914, when the Battalion was in its infancy, deficient of arms and +equipment, but full of men whose physique, zeal, and spirit were +magnificent, and this spirit was fully maintained, to the honour and +fame of the Battalion, in the face of the enemy in France during the +winter of 1915-16, and throughout 1916 and 1917, during which time it +was in my (99th) Brigade, which formed part of the 2nd Division. + +Throughout the heavy fighting we went through during this period, the +23rd Battalion Royal Fusiliers never failed me. What they were ordered +to do they did, and more; any objective they seized they held on to, +and never retired from. Few units can boast of as proud a record as +this. + +Many hundreds of their best and bravest made the last sacrifice, but +the splendid gallantry and dogged and cheerful endurance of the +Battalion never lessened. + +I was, and am, a proud man to have had such a Battalion in my Brigade, +a Battalion second to none amongst those who fought for the Empire in +the Great War. + + + + ++-----------------------------------------------------+ +| FORMATION OF THE BATTALION, THE HONOURS GAINED, AND | +| ITS RECORD IN BRIEF | ++-----------------------------------------------------+ + + + + +FORMATION OF THE BATTALION, THE HONOURS GAINED, +AND ITS RECORD IN BRIEF + +RAISED IN LONDON IN 1914 BY MRS E.

Public +Schools battalions, the Chums, the Footballers, and other battalions +were formed. But to the First Sportsman's belongs the honour of +introducing an actually new type. + +To begin with, it was cosmopolitan. Practically every grade of life +was represented, from the peer to the peasant; class distinctions were +swept away, every man turned to and pulled his bit. To illustrate what +is meant one hut of thirty men at Hornchurch may be mentioned. + +In this hut the first bed was occupied by the brother of a peer. The +second was occupied by the man who formerly drove his motor-car. Both +had enlisted at the same time at the Hotel Cecil, had passed the +doctor at the same time at St. Paul's Churchyard, and had drawn their +service money when they signed their papers. Other beds in this hut +were occupied by a mechanical engineer, an old Blundell School boy, +planters, a mine overseer from Scotland, a man in possession of a +flying pilot's certificate secured in France, a photographer, a +poultry farmer, an old sea dog who had rounded Cape Horn on no fewer +than nine occasions, a man who had hunted seals, "with more patches on +his trousers than he could count," as he described it himself, a bank +clerk, and so on. + +It must not be thought that this hut was an exceptional one. Every hut +was practically the same, and every hut was jealous of its reputation. +Scrubbing day was on Saturdays as a rule, and it was then that the +"un-char-lady" side of various men came out. They were handling +brooms, scrubbing-brushes, and squeegees for the first time in their +lives, but they stuck it, and, with practice making perfect, it was +surprising to what a pitch of cleanliness things eventually got. + +Even church parade has been dodged on a Sunday morning in order that +three pals might unite in an effort to get the stoves blacked, the +knives and forks polished, and a sheen put on the tea-pails. + +One may smile about these things now when in civilian life again, but +it was all very real at the time. The First Sportsman's were not +coddled; no man thought twice about getting in a terrible mess when +domestic duties had to be performed. The only kick came when the hut +windows had to be cleaned with old newspapers. The man who had +forgotten to wash the old cloths or buy new ones came in for a +terrible time. + +Rivalry, perfectly friendly in character, was great in the earlier +days before chums began to be split up as the result of taking +commissions. If we were digging trenches "somewhere in Essex," our +particular sector had to be completed quicker and be more finished in +character than any other. Jobs were done at the double if it were +thought to be necessary; if any man developed a tendency to take a +rest at too frequent intervals--well, he was ticked off in the most +approved fashion. It all made for the good of the whole. The N.C.O. in +charge had an easy time, he hadn't to drive a man. All he had to do +was to see that in over-eagerness his working party did not take +risks. + +But the time came when the calculations upon securing a commission +began to make their appearance. It may be some men were approached on +the matter, or that others thought they would get to the Front more +quickly as individual officers than as members of the Battalion (as +indeed proved the case in many instances), but certain it is that the +Colonel began to be inundated with applications to apply for +permission. + +Whilst freely recommending all suitable applications, the Colonel, in +order to keep up the strength of the Battalion, made a rule that an +applicant was to supply two other recruits to the Battalion of a +certain height and of absolute physical fitness. + +Naturally this was conformed with, and the recruiting sergeants round +Whitehall were all the richer for it. So, too, were the recruits, and +everyone was satisfied. If one man went two others took his place. + + [Illustration: FIRST INSPECTION OF BATTALION: HYDE PARK, + OCTOBER, 1914. + To face p. 20] + +Finally, as it was found that men constantly leaving was interfering +with the internal organization of the companies, a special company was +formed of all those waiting for their commission papers to come +through. + +This company, "E," proved the friendly butt of all the others, one wag +even going so far as to christen it the "Essex Beagles," alleging they +did not "parade," but "met"! + +So, in order to free the others for harder training this company +provided very nearly all the fatigue parties for the camp. + +Still, this didn't matter. It just gave the budding officers a chance +to show what they were capable of. On several occasions a member of +"E" Company proved he was more than a little useful with his hands +when it came to a matter of treating things from a physical point of +view and cutting the cheap wit out. The fatigues were also done +without a murmur, that was another point of honour, and although the +available strength of the company was dwindling day by day, "grousing" +about extra work was conspicuous by its absence. + +There was a funny side about this dwindling of the strength, too. Men +would be on the morning parade, and not on that later in the day. The +explanation was a simple one. Their papers had come through. A man +would walk out through the gates and be pulled up by the sentry. + +"What about your pass?" the latter would ask. + +"Got my discharge," would be the reply. + +"Got a commission?" + +"Yes." + +"Good luck, old chap. I'm getting my papers to-morrow." + +So, many of the original members of the First Sportsman's Battalion +were scattered about on every front in their various regiments. +Walking through the Rue Colmar, Suez, one day I met my old company +officer, then in the Royal Flying Corps. At Sidi Bishr, on the banks +of the Mediterranean, I met another. A fellow-sergeant in the +Battalion came up in the Rue Rosetta, Alexandria, and claimed me. + +Out beyond the Bitter Lakes, east of the Suez Canal, I met an old +Sportsman who had been a fellow-corporal with me. Back of the Somme, a +prominent West Country Sportsman shouted a greeting to me from the +Artillery. He still remembered rousing the camp at Hornchurch one +night by sounding a hunting horn. + +In an Artillery Captain in the Hebuterne sector I recognized another +member--a Machine-Gun officer rolled up smilingly on the way up the +line, and, finest time of all, I had nearly a whole day with what was +left of the old crowd when they were resting after Delville Wood. + +Friendships made in the First Sportsman's Battalion were not easily +broken. We are out of it now, but--once a Sportsman, always a +Sportsman. That, at least, has been my experience. + +And it must not be forgotten that to Mrs. Cunliffe-Owen is due the +credit of conceiving the idea of a battalion formed of men over the +then enlistment age, who, by reason of their life as sportsmen, were +fit and hard. Approaching the War Office, she obtained permission to +raise a special battalion of men up to the age of forty-five. This was +how the Sportsman's Battalion was actually brought into being. + + + + ++-----------------------------------------------------+ +| TRAINING AT HOME--HOW THE FINISHED SOLDIER EMERGED | +| FROM THE ROUGH MATERIAL | ++-----------------------------------------------------+ + + + + +TRAINING AT HOME--HOW THE FINISHED SOLDIER EMERGED +FROM THE ROUGH MATERIAL + + +Formed almost as soon as the war broke out in 1914, the First +Sportsman's Battalion may have provoked some criticism. It was +uncertain at first as to what branch of the service it was to +represent. Personally I thought it was to be mounted, and I was not +alone in this idea either. More than a few of us got busy at once in +settling how, if possible, we could provide our own mounts. That was +in the days when we were new to war, long before we began to know what +something approaching the real thing was. + +Recruiting went on briskly at the Hotel Cecil, London, where Mrs. +Cunliffe-Owen and her staff worked hard and late. Lieutenant-Colonel +Winter, then Second-Lieutenant Winter, with his ledger-like book and +his green-baize-covered table, was a familiar figure. So, too, was the +tailor who had been entrusted with the task of fitting us out with our +uniforms. He, poor man, was soon in trouble. The stock sizes could be +secured, but stock sizes were at a discount with the majority of the +men who first joined up. They wanted outside sizes, and very +considerable outside sizes, too, for the average height was a little +over six feet, and the chest measurements in proportion. + +Still, we recognized that these things had to be, and we kept on with +a smile and a joke for everything. Perhaps we had a pair of army +trousers and a sports-coat. Perhaps we had a pair of puttees, and the +rest of the costume was our own. It didn't matter. It was good enough +to parade in off the Embankment Gardens. It was good enough to route +march in through the London streets. And the traffic was always +stopped for us when we came home up the Strand, and proceeded down the +steps by the side of "the Coal Hole" to the "dismiss." Rude things +might be said to us by the crowd, but there was a warm spot in their +hearts for us. We just carried on. + +Bit by bit we were provided with our uniforms, and we began to fancy +ourselves as the real thing. We began to make new friends, and we were +drawn closer to those we knew. We came from all over the world. At the +call men had come home from the Far East and the Far West. A man who +had gone up the Yukon with Frank Slavin, the boxer; another who had +been sealing round Alaska; trappers from the Canadians woods; railway +engineers from the Argentine; planters from Ceylon; big-game hunters +from Central Africa; others from China, Japan, the Malay States, +India, Egypt--these were just a few of the Battalion who were ready +and eager to shoulder a rifle, and do their bit as just common or +garden Tommies. The thought of taking a commission did not enter our +minds at the start. Every man was eager to get on with the work, with +but a dim thought of what it was going to be like, but worrying not a +bit about the future. + +In a few weeks the Battalion had learnt how to form fours, to wheel, +and to maintain a uniformity of step. Every man was desperately keen; +to be late for parade was a great big sin. And this despite the fact +that every man had to come into London from all parts of the suburbs, +and farther out than that in many instances, by train (paying his own +fare) every morning. + +So the time went on. Then came the news that we were to go into camp +at the Grey Towers, Hornchurch, Essex, and next came the formation of +a fatigue party to go on ahead and get things ready for the reception +of the Battalion. There was a rush to get into this party as soon as +the news went round. Everyone was eager to do something fresh, and, +after all, we didn't know what fatigues were in those days. So the +party went on ahead. + +We who were left kept on with our drills; we even did physical jerks +on the slopes of Savoy Street, Strand. Then came the news that we were +to march away. That bucked everybody up tremendously, for, to tell the +truth, we were really beginning to get tired of the London life. Some +of us, who had seen life in various parts of the world previously, +were sighing again for the open air. All of us were thinking it was +really time we did something to justify our existence. We did not +claim to be show soldiers; we wanted to get at it. + + [Illustration: MARCHING AWAY FROM HYDE PARK TO ENTRAIN FOR + HORNCHURCH. + To face p. 28] + +All things come to those who wait, however. We were to move to +Hornchurch--the first step to active service. We had our uniforms, we +even had white gloves, and at last we fell in, by the Hotel Cecil, +with a band at our head, and off we went. Funnily enough, some of us +felt this break with London more than we felt anything afterwards. It +was really our first introduction to "the Great Unknown." + +Had the Guards been marching away they could not have had a greater +and a more enthusiastic send-off. The streets of the City were packed; +it was a struggle to get through. At Liverpool Street we were reduced +to a two-deep formation, and even then it became a case of shouldering +your way through those who had gathered to wish us "God speed." But we +were entrained at last; we detrained at Romford, and we marched to +Hornchurch. We were in the camp. + +OUR FIRST SURPRISE.--That's when we had the first surprise sprung upon +us, for we learnt that the camp would be our home for a whole solid +fourteen days. No one was to be allowed to go into the village; we +were to begin our course of instruction in discipline. There were a +few heart-burnings, but nothing more. The Battalion played up to its +ideal. + +We were drilled early and late; we were instructed in the art of guard +mounting; we peeled potatoes in the cookhouse; we fetched coal from +the quartermaster's stores; we fell in to get our rations from the +cookhouse; and last, but not least, we began to grouse. That was our +first advance to becoming real soldiers. At least, so the author was +told by an old N.C.O. who had marched with Roberts to Kabul, and who +was again in the Service, too aged to do more than to instruct, but +not too aged to do that well. + +Hard work and plain but plentiful food soon made the Battalion as hard +as nails, a phrase coined by the London _Evening News_, and a phrase +that stuck. Quite as important, too, was the fact that a member of the +"hard as nails" Battalion had to prove he was capable of acting up to +it. So it was just a matter of honour that every man should keep off +the sick parades, and not come home in the ambulance when a long route +march or a field day was indulged in. + +This took a bit of doing sometimes, for there was no mercy shown us. +We said we wanted the real thing, and, between ourselves, we got it. A +march of seven miles to the scene of operations, a hard field day, and +a march of seven miles home again, with pack, rifle, and full +equipment in other ways, was our lot. We began to recognize that we +were really soldiers, and we patted ourselves on the back. + +Sport, too, played a very big part in our training. The Army of to-day +recognizes the fact that athletics makes and keeps our youngsters fit +and well. Our Colonel recognized it from the start, and as we had +plenty of material to work upon we went right away with it. We had a +"soccer" team, a "rugger" team, and a cricket eleven. The records of +the matches we won, and the fact that very few defeats were notched up +against us, proves we had a perfect right to style ourselves "the +First Sportsman's Battalion, the 23rd (Service) Battalion Royal +Fusiliers." + + [Illustration: THE CAMP: HORNCHURCH.] + + [Illustration: INTERIOR OF A HUT: HORNCHURCH. + To face p. 30] + +Scullers, footballers, boxers, runners, wrestlers, actors, musicians, +artists--all these could be had for the asking, and we drew upon them +liberally. We were given plenty of opportunities to indulge in our +passion for sport in the ordinary way, but the private who once asked +for leave in order to go grouse shooting didn't get it. It was +suggested he might put in a little time at the rifle range instead. No +restrictions, however, were put upon any early morning running +matches, and the football and cricket teams were helped in every way. + +To get back to the purely military side, however. We groused at the +amount of drills and night operations, to being hut orderlies, going +on guard, and so on. But we did them as a means to an end. Then we had +the rudest shock of all. We learnt we were to embark on the task of +digging trenches--somewhere in Essex! That put the lid on things, so +we considered. We, infantry soldiers, to dig trenches! It couldn't be +right. We thought the Engineers, or the Pioneers, or somebody else, +always did that. Our job was to carry a rifle, and to shoot Germans. +That's how the rank and file looked at it in the first place. Of +course they discovered other things when the Battalion got to France, +but that's another story. + +However, it had to be done and, like everything else, it _was_ done. +After an early breakfast, the company detailed fell in and marched off +to the station. After a while, a special train arrived and we +scrambled in. In the interim, it may be mentioned, packed trains +proceeding cityward went by, the passengers cheering us. That passed +the time if it did nothing else. + +Nearly an hour in the train, a march of perhaps a couple of miles, and +we reached our objective. Mysterious personages, with a big "G.R." in +gold on scarlet armlets popped up from somewhere, produced plans, and +informed our Company Officer that trenches had to be dug at such and +such a place. As a rule it was somewhere where the water from an +adjacent brook would percolate through the earth and make things +uncomfortable. That's by the way, though, and after all it was good +practice, this working out a method of trench drainage on our own. As +a matter of fact we had a lot of Civil and Colonial Engineers in our +ranks, and so we put all the mistakes made by the others right. +Whenever possible, of course. One or two things, it must be admitted, +beat us. + +Sometimes it rained, sometimes it snowed, occasionally, very +occasionally, it happened to be fine. But we got on with our work, +waiting for the bugler to blow for the midday lunch. When "cookhouse" +went we straightened our backs, got _some_ of the mud off our boots, +and proceeded to take what the gods (in this case the quartermaster) +were good enough to give us. We always had two guesses, and we were +always right. It was either bread and cheese, or bread and bully. If +we were fortunate we might be able to purchase beer at a local +hostelry, or Oxo at a village shop. If not so fortunate, the +waterbottle or, if again lucky, a pocket-flask was brought into +service. + +THE KINDLY SHOPKEEPER.--Digressing for a moment, though, it may be +mentioned that the various shopkeepers were always very, very good to +us! They always supplied us with what we needed, if they had it, and +they never put the prices up to us! At least, not much. For instance, +if a resident could buy a pair of bootlaces for a penny, we were only +occasionally charged more than threepence. Other things were in +proportion, and Essex to-day has quite a lot of nice new shops, +unknown before the advent of the First Sportsman's Battalion. It is +pleasing to remember that a Navvy Battalion followed us! + +To resume the trench digging. As we were later complimented on the +quality of the work we did, we must have shone in the way of handling +the pick and the spade. At the end of our labours, when the "fall in" +was sounded, we were quite ready to say we were looking forward to a +hot meal in our huts in camp, where, outside, the breezes whispered +through the branches of the trees lining the drive, where the moon +silvered the tin roofs of our living quarters, and all was bright and +jolly--in the sergeants' mess! + +So time sped away, and still we kept on wondering if we were +forgotten. We sat by the fires in "stoves, hot, combustion slow," and +we told the tale of the two highly placed War Office officials who +were discussing the war years after it had finished. One had asked the +other how the Sportsman's Battalion had shaped in "the Great +Adventure," and then would come the climax. "Good God!" the other +would say, "I've forgotten them. They're still at Hornchurch!" + +All things have to come to a finish though, and so we found. We had +night attacks, some three and four day route marches, even a +recruiting march through Barking and its neighbourhood, we did our +shooting tests, got through our bayonet exercises, had battalion drill +in the early mornings, with a fair amount of ceremonial drill thrown +in as a makeweight, and then came the rumour that a real big move was +to be made, such a move that the departure for the Front could not be +long delayed. + +This was the move to Clipstone Camp for brigade training. We had heard +so many rumours previously that we did not believe this, the latest, +at first. But it was correct, and at last the Battalion, formed up in +hollow square, was found on the parade ground at Grey Towers, where +the Rector of Hornchurch bade us God speed and good cheer. + +A few days later the Battalion, leaving two companies behind as depot +companies, entrained at Hornchurch for the new camp at Clipstone. + +There it went through brigade training, was equipped with its +regimental transport, and afterwards moved to Candahar Barracks, +Tidworth, to undergo divisional training with the 33rd Division, of +which it formed a part. + +Finally, after being reviewed with the Division by Queen Mary, acting +in place of His Majesty the King, who was suffering from his accident +sustained in France, all was in readiness for the next and biggest +move of all. + + + + ++-----------------------------------------------------+ +| SERVICE OVERSEAS--HEAVY FIGHTING ALL ALONG THE | +| FRONT, AND A TRIUMPHAL MARCH INTO GERMANY | ++-----------------------------------------------------+ + + + + +SERVICE OVERSEAS--HEAVY FIGHTING ALL ALONG THE +FRONT, AND A TRIUMPHAL MARCH INTO GERMANY + + +The day of the move overseas arrived. This was on November 15, 1915, +when the regimental transport entrained at Tidworth for Havre, +followed one day later by the Battalion, which proceeded to +Folkestone, Boulogne being reached on November 17, Ostrohove Rest Camp +being the first objective. No time, however, was wasted there, for on +November 18 the Battalion entrained at Pont-de-Briques, joining the +transport which had come up from Havre. + +It was at Steenbecque, reached a day later, and where billets were +found in barns and farmhouses, that the sound of artillery in action +was first heard by the Battalion. Four days were occupied here in +sorting things out generally, the companies parading, route marching, +and being inspected. + +On November 23 a move was made to Busnes, the first part of the route +being over badly cut up second-class roads, and the remainder on pave. +The men, the war diary tells us, marching in greatcoats, and carrying +blankets, found the march very trying. Billets in the area La +Miquellerie were reached at 3 p.m. Distance, 111/2 miles. + +Then came a very important thing from a soldier's point of view. Pay +was drawn from the Field Cashier, and distributed for the first time +in France. Next came the notification that in conformation with the +policy of re-forming the 33rd and the 2nd Divisions by forming +brigades, each consisting of two new battalions and two regular +battalions, the 99th Brigade was to lose the 17th and 24th Battalions +Royal Fusiliers, receive the 1st Royal Berks and the 1st King's Royal +Rifle Corps and join the 2nd Division. + +On November 25 the Battalion paraded to march to their new billets at +Bethune, being inspected _en route_ by General Walker and the Staff of +the 2nd Division. General Walker's opinion was that the 23rd Royal +Fusiliers was one of the best battalions he had seen in Bethune. + +Still moving, on November 26 the Battalion marched to Annequin, Fosse +9, and owing to the road being frequently shelled, orders were given +that seventy-pace intervals should be kept between platoons east of +Beuvry. To improve matters, it may be mentioned, there was a heavy +fall of snow, and in the portion of the village south of La Basse the +majority of the houses were in ruins, the result of frequent +bombardments by the enemy. + +Then began the first experience of the Battalion in warfare. Before +being trusted to hold a line by itself it had to serve an +apprenticeship. This was done by attaching, in the first place, +platoons, then companies, and then the half-battalion to battalions in +the line in order to learn the work and what was expected of them. + +During this time much kindness was experienced from the regular +battalions to which the attachments were made. The units of the +Battalion not doing attachment duty were used for working parties in +the trenches and suffered several casualties. No. 2 platoon, right +flank company, specially suffered, being caught by shrapnel fire on +the Bethune-La Basse road, ten N.C.O.'s and men being wounded. + +On December 10 instruction in the use of the gas helmet was given. +Every man was required to pass through a hut sprayed with chlorine gas +ten times as strong as would be used on ordinary occasions, General +Kellett being present while this was being carried out, and himself +going through the test. + +So things went on until December 19. On that date the Battalion +marched to Cambrin support point to relieve the 1st Royal Berks and +take over a sector "on its own." In the trenches, No. 1 Company was on +the right, adjoining the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps, No. 2 Company +on the left, adjoining the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders, No. 3 +Company was in the centre, and No. 4 Company was in support at +Annequin (Fosse). + +It was a very busy time, for No. 3 Company held command of the sap +head at New Crater, a spot where German snipers were particularly +troublesome. A gas attack was ordered upon the enemy, but, much to the +disappointment of the officers and men, it proved a "wash-out" owing +to the breeze dying down at the last moment. On December 21, however, +as the wind was favourable, a gas attack took place on a front of +about a mile. It was on this day that Captain Cameron, of No. 1 +Company, was wounded in the arm by a piece of high-explosive while +entering the front line. + +Then the Battalion, less No. 4 Company, was relieved by the 1st Royal +Berks, and proceeded to reserve billets at Annequin (Fosse) on +December 22. Not for complete rest, though, as it is generally +understood by the civilian, for working parties had to be detailed; +indeed, on December 24 all four companies were out, less sick and +those on duty. And, says the war diary, no straw was provided for the +billets, no coke, coal, or wood for the drying-room, and no facilities +for drying or cleaning clothes. + +CHRISTMAS DAY IN THE TRENCHES--On Christmas Day the Battalion paraded +for trench duty to relieve the 1st Royal Berks, the trenches taken +over being the same as were occupied on December 19-22, with the +alteration in disposition that made No. 4 Company replace No. 3 +Company in the centre. + +There was also a special bombardment on this day, and the Battalion's +first patrol, consisting of four men and an officer, went over the +parapet, being out in No Man's Land for an hour. During that time the +party located a sniper's post, cut out some wire from the enemy's +entanglements, and were persistently sniped at themselves, while great +difficulty was experienced in maintaining direction. + +Then, on Boxing Day, Colonel Lord Maitland was wounded in the knee by +a piece of high-explosive while proceeding to the 99th Brigade +Headquarters via Cambrin Church. + +The German snipers continued their activity, there were intermittent +bombardments, several casualties were sustained, and on December 29 +the Battalion was relieved by the 18th Royal Fusiliers. Owing to the +bad state of the trenches this relief did not take place until 5.10 +p.m., although it was due to be effected at 3 p.m. + +Still, the Battalion got back to its billets at Annequin (Fosse), and +on December 30 marched back to Busnettes for sixteen days' divisional +rest. Owing to the very arduous work which had been done since +December 19, on this occasion no packs were carried, and only three +men fell out in a tiring march of 111/4 miles. + + +1916. + +The New Year opened quietly, the usual rest-time routine of kit +inspection, squad drill, route marching, and so on, being indulged in, +a draft coming up from the base on January 7, while on January 11 the +first leave for officers commenced. Then came a move, and on January +19 the Battalion marched to Le Touret, relieving the 6th Queen's +Regiment, the 99th Infantry Brigade taking over a sector of the front +at Festubert from the 37th Infantry Brigade. + + [Illustration: LT.-COL. H.A. VERNON, D.S.O. + To face p. 42] + +On January 22 the Battalion relieved the 1st Royal Berks, "B" Company +being in reserve in the old British line, "A" Company in support in +Richmond Trench, "C" Company in front line Cover Trench and Islands, +and "D" Company in front line Orchard Trench. The front line and +support line garrisons, it may be noted, had to take up their +positions over the top, and so could not be visited in daylight. The +position remained the same until the then Kaiser's birthday, on +January 27, when although the order for relief was given at 6 p.m., a +"stand to" was ordered in anticipation of an attack. + +This did not come off, and, the relief by the 24th Royal Fusiliers +being effected, the Battalion marched back to Bethune on January 28, +where the billets were inspected by General Kellett. + +On January 29 Colonel Lord Maitland relinquished the command of the +Battalion, temporary command being taken by Major Richey, D.S.O., and +Lieutenant-Colonel H.A. Vernon (1st King's Royal Rifle Corps) assumed +command on January 31, while Lieutenant Cooper was appointed +machine-gun officer in place of Lieutenant Lewis, who had been +wounded. + +Le Quesnoy was the next move, made on February 3, and relieving the +1st Royal Berks on February 7, the Battalion was in turn moved out of +the trenches into the village line Givenchy on the 11th, remaining +there until the 15th, when it again relieved the 1st Royal Berks in B3 +sub-sector Givenchy. On the 17th the Battalion was relieved by the +16th Royal Welsh Fusiliers and moved to Le Quesnoy, remaining there +until the 27th, when it proceeded to Barlin. On February 28 another +move was made to Petit Sains, relieving the 22nd Royal Fusiliers, and +on the 29th the Battalion took over the Souchez North sector of +trenches from the French 77th Infantry Regiment. + +From March 1 to March 13 the Battalion held the line at Souchez North +in turn with the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps and on the latter date +proceeded to billets at Noulette, returning again to the trenches on +the 17th, the Battalion on the left being the 17th Royal Fusiliers, +and on the right the 1st Royal Berks. Then on March 28 it moved to La +Comte for divisional rest. + +Reclinghem was the next move, made on April 9, and on April 11 there +was a Brigade field day, another reinforcing draft arriving on the +same day. Then on the night of April 21-22 the Battalion relieved the +1st King's Royal Rifle Corps in the Souchez second sector of the line. +So the end of the month arrived with alternate duty in the trenches +and rest in billets. + +More reinforcements, to replace wastage, arrived in the early part of +May, and on the 23rd the Battalion was in the trenches at Berthouval, +marching to its billets at Camblain l'Abbe on May 30. Working parties +were naturally provided for the trenches while the Battalion was +resting, and two men were accidentally wounded on the 4th. But things +were moderately quiet until the night of June 10-11. On that date the +Battalion relieved the 17th Middlesex Regiment in the Carency left +sector of the front. + +On June 21 Lieutenant-Colonel Vernon was wounded whilst visiting a sap +head held by Jerry Delaney, the boxer, Major H.V. Pirie assuming +command of the Battalion until he returned to duty. The Battalion was +relieved by the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps on the night of June +22-23, and proceeded to billets at Villiers aux Bois. The next move, +on the 27th, was made to Estree Cauchie. + +THE SOMME FIGHTING.--Then came the move to the Somme and the July of +1916, when the average life of the infantry subaltern in France was +only worth three weeks. Many, indeed, were killed within a week of +their crossing the Channel, on the very first day of entering the +trenches and taking part in the British advance. The 23rd Royal +Fusiliers were engaged in the whole of the desperate fighting on the +Somme, including the battle of Delville Wood, the story of which is +told in another part of this volume. + +Following this bath of blood, on August 1 the Battalion left Bund +support trench, two companies going to Longueval Alley, and two +remaining to garrison and dig trenches at Montauban. + +Becoming united again, on the 29th the Battalion, under the +impression that it was going out for a promised rest after its battle, +moved to The Citadel, Sandpit Valley, and on to Mericourt l'Abbe; +thence on to Fremont (passing through Amiens), Naours, Longuevillette, +Authie, and Bus les Artois; and next, instead of the longed-for rest, +found itself back in the trenches again at Hebuterne, relieving the +1st Coldstream Guards! + +September was spent in the Hebuterne sector, and October saw many +moves. Starting with Coieneux (Basin Wood) the Battalion was at the +Redan (Serre sector), Mailly-Maillet (where the church, it will be +remembered, had been protected by means of fascines), Raincheval, and +Acheux Wood, where the rail-head and the factory with its tall chimney +were bombed heavily from the air and shelled by the German heavies. +Finally, on October 30, the Battalion relieved the 2nd Highland Light +Infantry in the Redan right sub-sector, being in the trenches there +when the month drew to a close. + +November saw the Battalion taking its part in the Battle of Beaumont +Hamel. Told by the War Diary this month's events were: + + November 1.--Battalion in Redan right sub-sector. + + November 2.--Battalion relieved by the 1st King's Royal Rifle + Corps, and proceeded to billets at Mailly-Maillet. + + November 3-4.--Battalion in billets, providing working and + carrying parties. + + November 5.--Battalion relieved 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps + in Redan right sub-sector. + + November 6.--Battalion in Redan right sub-sector. + + November 7.--Battalion relieved by 24th Royal Fusiliers and + proceeded to billets at Bertrancourt. + + November 8-12.--Battalion in billets, providing working and + carrying parties. + + November 13.--Battalion left Bertrancourt at 2.10 a.m., and + proceeded to Ellis Square, Fort Hoystead, and View Trench + (Redan right sub-sector). "A" and "C" Companies sent at 10.10 + a.m. to G.O.C. 5th Brigade at White City. These companies + proceeded later to the old German front line, and at 5 p.m. + "C" Company was ordered up to reinforce the 2nd Highland Light + Infantry in Green Line. + + "B" and "D" Companies at 7 p.m. carried the German second + line. During this time, these companies were under the command + of G.O.C. 8th Infantry Brigade. At 7 p.m. Battalion + Headquarters moved to White City. + + November 14.--1st King's Royal Rifle Corps at 3 a.m. also + established Headquarters at White City. At 6 a.m. Battalion + moved forward in support of 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps and + 1st Royal Berks. "A" and "C" Companies proceeded to Crater + Lane, and later to Wagon Road (on right). "B" and "D" + Companies (on left) took up position in Lager Alley, between + the Oxford and Bucks Light Infantry and the 1st Royal Berks. + + November 15.--At 1 a.m. Battalion Headquarters moved from + White City to Headquarters of 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps in + German front line. Companies still in support of 1st King's + Royal Rifle Corps and 1st Royal Berks. + + November 16.--Battalion at 1 a.m. moved back to Ellis Square. + + November 17.--Battalion moved to billets in Mailly-Maillet. + + November 18.--Battalion moved to billets at Sarton. + + November 19.--Battalion marched to billets at Gezancourt. + + November 20.--Battalion in billets at Gezancourt. + + November 21.--Battalion marched to billets at Candas. + + November 22.--Battalion in billets at Candas. + + November 23.--Battalion marched to billets at Domqueur. + + November 24.--Battalion marched to billets at Gapennes. + + November 25.--Battalion marched to billets at Millencourt. + + November 26.--Battalion in billets at Millencourt. + + November 27.--Battalion marched to billets at Oneux. + + November 28-29-30.--Battalion in billets at Oneux. + +The following month, December, the Battalion also spent in rest at +Oneux. + + +1917. + +On January 9 a move was made from Oneux to Candas, to Beauquesne on +the 11th, to Bouzincourt on the 13th, and to Aveluy on the 20th. From +there it went into the trenches at Courcelette, "A" and "C" Companies +being in the front line, and "B" and "D" in support. + +On February 1 the Battalion moved from Courcelette to Ovillers Huts, +and on the 5th went on to Senlis, moving to Wolfe Huts on the 15th, +and into the line for operations a day later. + +Intense cold was experienced at this time. The ground, like iron, was +covered with snow. The frost was intense, one man being actually +frozen stiff at his post on sentry, and drinking water carried to the +front line arrived as lumps of ice, from which bits were chipped for +eating. + +An attack on the German trenches was made on February 17. Unluckily a +day before the attack the frost gave way, a very rapid thaw set in, +making No Man's Land deep and heavy with slush and mud. Moving to the +attack over such ground was terrible; the objective line was reached, +but the following casualties were sustained: + + Officers killed 8 + " wounded 4 + " missing 1 + --- + 13 + + Other ranks killed 30 + " wounded 165 + " missing 32 + --- + 227 + +The Battalion held the Red Line on February 18, and in the night was +relieved and moved to Ovillers Huts again. On the 24th it moved to +Bruce Huts, and on the 26th to Albert, returning to Ovillers Huts on +the 27th. + +March 5 found the Battalion back in the trenches at Courcellette, and +on the 10th "D" Company cooperated with the 1st Royal Berks and the +1st King's Royal Rifle Corps in an attack on Grevillers Trench and +Lady's Leg Ravine, taking the ravine, killing about 20 of the enemy, +and capturing 30 men and 2 machine guns. The casualties of the company +amounted to 7 other ranks killed, 26 wounded, 1 accidentally wounded, +and 2 died later from their wounds. + +The following day the Battalion moved to Wolfe Huts, and on the 19th +to Albert again, proceeding from there to Contay, Amplier, Bonnieres, +Framecourt, Aumerval, and Bailleul les Pernes. + +VIMY RIDGE.--From Bailleul les Pernes the Battalion moved up to +Larosette, behind Vimy Ridge, ready to go in and take over a part of +the Ridge after its capture in the coming battle for its possession. +On the night of April 11, in a blinding snowstorm, the Battalion +relieved the 1/5th Gordons on the captured Ridge, and on the 13th +continued the advance to the line of the railway, captured the village +of Bailleul, established a line on the enemy side of it, and sent out +patrols to Oppy, which was found to be very strongly held by the +enemy. + + [Illustration: _Swaine, photo._ + LT.-COL.

WINTER, D.S.O., M.C. + To face p. 50] + +Owing to a mistaken order, one platoon of "C" Company actually +advanced on Oppy to capture it, but were themselves taken prisoners +after severe fighting. During this advance one 77mm., two field guns, +and one 4.2 howitzer were captured, and whilst moving forward, at the +Colonel's side, to the railway embankment, the Adjutant of the +Battalion, Captain Lissaman, was killed by an enemy shell. + +Being relieved on the 14th by the 1st Royal Berks, the Battalion moved +into support and reserve lines, but on the 18th were in the trenches +west of Ecurie, moving to a tent camp on the Roclincourt-Maison-Blanche +road on the 22nd. Another move, to Maroeil, was made on April 23, and +on the 25th the 17th Royal Fusiliers were relieved in the trenches west +of Bailleul. + +On April 29, at 4 a.m., "B" Company took part in an attack on Oppy by +the 1st Royal Berks and the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps, and then the +Battalion moved back into reserve trenches. + +On May 1 a composite battalion was formed of two companies of the 23rd +Royal Fusiliers and two companies of the 1st Royal Berks, and moved +forward to a position in front of Oppy to deliver an attack on the +Oppy-Fresnoy line. + +Attacking on March 3, Fresnoy trench was captured with between sixty +and seventy prisoners and a machine gun. Heavy counter-attacks were +made by the Germans during the day, and, in view of these and the +retirement of the troops on the right, it became necessary to retire +along Fresnoy trench. At 3.30 a.m., on the night of May 3-4, the +Battalion was relieved by the 15th Warwicks, and moved back to disused +enemy trenches in the Roclincourt area, the total casualties sustained +being 7 officers and 122 other ranks. + +On May 5 Lieutenant-Colonel Vernon having proceeded on leave, Major +E.A. Winter assumed command, and on May 24 Lt.-Colonel Vernon having +to report to the War Office on promotion to Brigadier-General, Major +Winter was promoted Lieutenant-Colonel, and appointed to the command +of the Battalion. On the same day the Battalion moved into the line +again, relieving first the 1st Royal West Kents, and then the 22nd +Royal Fusiliers. + +June 1 saw the Battalion relieved by the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps +in the front line (Oppy-Arleux line), and moved back to Deutscher +House and Thelus Wood, working parties for the front line being +provided each night. On the 4th, the 22nd Royal Fusiliers came in as +the relief, and the Battalion moved to St. Aubyn for rest. + +This did not last long, for on June 8-9 the Battalion relieved the 1st +King's Royal Rifle Corps in immediate support, Oppy-Arleux line, the +casualties sustained being one other rank killed and two wounded. +Then, relieving the 22nd Royal Fusiliers, the Battalion went into the +front line, being relieved in turn on the night of June 13-14 by the +Royal West Kents, and proceeded to Bray. + +On June 20 the Battalion was taken by omnibus to Beuvry, and on the +21st relieved the 2/5th Manchester Regiment in the front line, Cambrin +left sub-sector, the casualties being two other ranks killed and six +wounded. A German raid on the Battalion right was repelled at 3.30 +a.m. on the 27th, and the 22nd Royal Fusiliers came in as relief on +the evening of that day, the Battalion proceeding to Noyelles for +rest. + +July opened with the Battalion training at Noyelles under company +arrangements, so far as it was possible, having in view its proximity +to the line and liability to observation by the enemy. On July 3 the +Battalion went into the front line, Cambrin left sub-sector. Six days +later it went into support with headquarters at Annequin. + +July 5 saw the Battalion, less two companies, in the Cambrin left +sub-sector front line, Major N.A. Lewis assuming command in the +trenches, with 100 Corps cyclists attached, while Lieutenant-Colonel +Winter remained at Annequin for the purpose of training "C" and "D" +Companies for a raid. + +About 3.30 a.m. an enemy raiding party, about fifteen strong, entered +the front line, wounding and carrying off one man. Bombing parties at +once bombed along the trench, driving the raiders out, who came under +Lewis gun and rifle fire both on entering and leaving their objective. +On returning to their own lines they left our wounded man, who was +brought in. The body of one of the enemy was found in No Man's Land, +but a complete search could not be made owing to the light. At night, +however, a patrol went out and brought in the body of the dead German. +Other bodies had apparently been dragged back to the enemy trenches. +Our casualties were only four wounded. + +On July 20, at 10.30 p.m., a raiding party, consisting of two officers +and about a hundred other ranks, crossed to the enemy's front and +support lines, the object being the capture of these two lines, the +infliction of loss on the enemy, and the securing of prisoners and +identifications. The raid was preceded by a hurricane barrage from our +artillery, Stokes' mortars, and machine guns, being also accompanied +with a discharge from oil projectors. + +Very few of the enemy were found in the front and support lines, but +small parties who were in dug-outs were bombed. Five of the enemy were +also bayoneted in a communication trench. The main garrisons of the +lines had apparently retired, and no prisoners were taken. Our +casualties during the raid were two killed, fifteen wounded, and five +wounded and missing. + +Then came a move into reserve at Annequin, but from the 27th the +Battalion moved into the front line of the Cambrin left sub-sector +again up to, and including, August 1. From then until the night of +August 25 the Battalion were doing duty in the trenches and in +reserve, but on the 26th was relieved by the 8th Sherwood Foresters, +and moved to Oblinghem. + +There training was carried on, and on September 6 the C.O., +accompanied by the company commanders and specialist officers, +reconnoitred the Givenchy support line. On the following day the +Battalion proceeded to the village support line, no shelling being +experienced during the relief of the 17th Middlesex. On September 13 +the Battalion relieved the 22nd Royal Fusiliers in the Givenchy left +sub-sector front line, a battalion of the Portuguese troops being +attached for instruction. + +Gas was projected upon the enemy on the 14th; there was no +retaliation, and on the following day the Portuguese were relieved by +another of their battalions. + +About a hundred enemy heavy shells fell on September 16 near the right +company's headquarters at Barnton Tee, Barnton Road, blowing in the +trench in five places. A bombardment on the left, which commenced +later, ceased on our retaliating. On September 17 the Portuguese +troops left the trenches and returned to their billets, while on the +night of the 18th-19th the Battalion was relieved and proceeded to +Beuvry. + +Training there until September 26, the Battalion then relieved the +22nd Royal Fusiliers in the Cambrin left sub-sector, and finding the +enemy to be ominously quiet, a patrol was sent out to Railway Craters. +On the following night eight small patrols were sent out into No Man's +Land, and on the 28th two patrols reconnoitred the enemy wire. On the +following day eight small patrols were established in No Man's Land +to cover work in the trenches, and, ensuing upon this, the German +artillery became fairly active. + +A move into support, following relief, was made on September 2. On the +5th the Battalion was relieved, and the companies marched +independently to the Orphanage, Bethune, then on to Raimbert, the +Battalion being watched on the line of march by Generals Pereira and +Kellett. + +AT BOURLON WOOD.--Training was carried on, and on November 5 the +Battalion made a move through Busnes, Merville, and the Eecke area to +the Herzeele area. More training ensued, and a strong rumour was in +the air that the 2nd Division was "for Italy." The Battalion was +equipped up to the last button, all ranks were looking forward to a +change of scenery and new phases of fighting; the medical officer +lectured the Battalion on the perils to be avoided in relation to +charming Italians, and spirits were high and merry. + +But the first attack on Cambrai took place, and instead of going to +Italy the 2nd Division was hurriedly moved south by road and rail to +take over the line from troops which had conducted the attack. + +On the night of November 26-27 the Battalion had reached +Beaumetz-les-Cambrai, from which it was moved up to the slopes of +Bourlon Wood to take over from elements of the 2/4th King's Own +Yorkshire Light Infantry and the Bays. The march along the Cambrai +road, across the captured Hindenburg Line, and on to the Sugar +Factory will long be remembered by those who took part in it. + +Again it snowed--it is curious how many important moves of the +Battalion took place in a snowstorm. This time, however, it was a +blessing, for it deadened the sound of moving troops, and certainly +saved the Battalion being heard and shelled by the enemy. + +On the line (if a few scattered posts in shell-holes can be called a +line) being taken over, the Battalion at once set to work to dig +itself in, profiting greatly by the recent training it had received in +"intensive digging." On the left was the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps, +and on the right the 62nd Division, the battalion in support being the +1st Royal Berks. The Battalion held the line on the 27th, and on the +28th changed places with the 1st Royal Berks, going into support +positions to them. + +On the 30th the heavy enemy attack developed, and the Berks being hard +pressed, three companies of the 23rd were moved up to their support. +The enemy gained a footing in their line, and one company of the 23rd +was used to counter-attack and re-establish the line, which it +successfully performed. + +The 17th Royal Fusiliers, on the Berks' left, having severe fighting, +a section of the 23rd was sent to strengthen their posts, and help was +given in supplying them with bombs and S.A.A. On the evening of +December 1 the line was readjusted between the 1st Royal Berks and the +23rd Royal Fusiliers--the Berks taking the left and the 23rd the +right. On the night of December 1 the position of the Battalion was: +two companies and two platoons in the line; two companies, less two +platoons, in support. + +On the night of December 2 the unit on the right of the 23rd Royal +Fusiliers pushed forward its line. In order to keep touch with them, +one company from the support positions went over with them at 8.10 +p.m. The advance was successful, the objective duly gained and rapidly +consolidated--one prisoner and one machine gun being taken in the +advance. + +Then came a great disappointment to the troops who had fought so well. +Further south the enemy's counter-attack had proved successful, +converting the position held by the 2nd Division into a very dangerous +salient, from which it was imperative to retire. + +The necessary orders were issued, and at dead of night, December 4-5, +the Battalion retired through Graincourt to Hermies. To cover the +retirement two sections per company were left in the line with orders +not to retire until just before dawn, and to spend the night in moving +up and down the vacated line, firing Verey-lights and rifles to delude +the enemy into thinking the line was still held. + +By this ruse the Battalion was enabled to carry out the difficult +operation of withdrawing in the face of the enemy without his +knowledge. The sections so left behind gallantly carried out their +tasks and safely rejoined the Battalion at Hermies. + +From December 5 the Battalion was in support, but on the 11th it +relieved the 21st Londons in the Hindenburg Line, and, after relief, +marched on December 20 to Gropi Camp, where Christmas was spent in +tents in the snow. In reserve until the 30th, it then relieved the +22nd Royal Fusiliers in the left canal sector (Canal du Nord) of the +Hindenburg Line. + + +1918. + +On January 3 the Battalion, relieved, marched independently by +companies to Barastre for Divisional rest. January 23 found them at +Villers Plouich in the Vacquerie right sub-sector, the Battalion +headquarters being in Farm Ravine. On February 3 they entrained on the +light railway for Equancourt, where they were placed in Divisional +reserve. Not much time was spent in this way, though, for on the 9th +the Battalion entrained for Trescault, and proceeded from there to the +Vacquerie right sub-sector, remaining in the line there until going +into reserve at Equancourt again on the 15th. + +On February 22 a move was made to the line again in the Vacquerie +right sub-sector. On the night of March 6-7 the Battalion was +relieved, and marched to Metz, where they were billeted in huts. It +was impossible, however, to secure any real rest here, for the camp +was shelled intermittently both during the day and the night. + +The afternoon of March 12 saw the Battalion back in the trenches +again at Lincoln Reserve and Midland Reserve, "D" Company being in +Snap Trench. There was a heavy gas-shell bombardment by the enemy on +the nights of the 12th, 13th, and 14th, the Battalion suffering heavy +casualties, also intermittent shelling during the day and night, while +there was, as a welcome change, a raid on the enemy front line by the +Battalion on the night of March 13-14. Then came the relief of the +Battalion, which marched back to Equancourt, a rest for the Battalion +being absolutely necessary owing to the fact that all the remaining +members were suffering from gas poisoning. + +THE GERMAN OFFENSIVE.--Next came the great offensive by the enemy--the +time when the Germans almost thrust their way right through by force +of numbers. + +The first indication of the break-through which the Battalion received +was enemy bullets actually falling in the camp. Every man turned out, +the Battalion took up a line north of Equancourt in an attempt to hold +up the advance of the enemy, patrols being sent forward into Fins, +where it was found the Germans had succeeded in establishing +themselves. + +On the following morning an enemy attack was beaten back with heavy +loss, but both its flanks being "in the air" the Battalion received +orders to retire on Le Transloy. Moving though Hayettes Wood, Ytres, +Bus, and Rocquigny, Le Transloy was reached late at night, where the +Brigade from which it had become separated was rejoined. + +Moving again before dawn, a line was taken up round Gueudecourt, which +was held during the day. Making another move at dusk, a fresh line was +established at Eaucourt l'Abbaye. Very heavily attacked on the +following day, the Battalion was forced to fight a rearguard action, +retreating through Le Sars on Pys, where another stand was made. + +Again slipping back at night, a position was taken up near Beaucourt +sur Ancre. From this position the Battalion again moved back and +occupied the old British trenches known as White City trenches near +Beaumont Hamel. In spite of many heavy enemy attacks this position was +held until the Battalion was relieved by New Zealand troops. + +_On relief it marched out to the wood at Mailly-Maillet only four +officers and seventy men strong._ + +Resting at Englebelmer for a day or so, it was again moved into the +front line at Aveluy Wood, where a German attack was beaten off, the +enemy being badly mauled. During the fighting round Gueudecourt, +Brigadier-General Barnett-Barker was killed, and, as senior Colonel in +the 99th Brigade, Lieutenant-Colonel Winter assumed command, the +command of the 23rd Royal Fusiliers devolving upon Major Lewis. + +In his anxiety to hold up the enemy for as long as possible and to get +the battalion back safely to a line being formed behind him, Major +Lewis was taken prisoner at Eaucourt l'Abbaye. The command then +devolved upon Captain C.H. Bowyer, who kept it until the return of +Lieutenant-Colonel Winter, who rejoined the Battalion on General E. +Ironside (now General Sir E. Ironside, who earned fame in Russia) +taking over the Brigade. + +It only remains to add that the gas casualties from March 12 onwards +amounted to 11 officers and 240 other ranks, while the casualties in +action from the 22nd to the 31st were: + + Officers killed 1 + " wounded 2 + " wounded and missing 1 + " missing 10 + Other ranks killed 15 + " wounded 59 + " wounded and missing 6 + " missing 210 + +During the early part of April the Battalion was busy in moving, being +in turn in Hedeauville, Beauval, Houvin, Houvigneul, Ivergny, +Coullemont, La Cauchie, and on the 14th relieved the 1st Coldstream +Guards in Brigade Reserve in front of Blaireville. Two days later it +was in the front line, right sub-sector, in front of Adinfer, doing +alternate front line and support duty until the end of the month. + +It was not until May 12 that the Battalion marched back to billets at +Berles au Bois, where training was carried on until June 7. On that +date it relieved the 1st Grenadier Guards in the Ayette left +sub-sector. Relieved on the night of June 10-11, it marched back to +reserve position near Monchy au Bois, going into the line again in the +Ayette sector on the night of 13th-14th. + +During the night of June 24-25 "A" Company carried out a raid on the +enemy front line, and at 2 a.m. on the 26th "B" Company also carried +out a similar operation. July came round, and on the night of the +22nd-23rd the Battalion supplied a flanking party to a raid carried +out by the 1st Royal Berks. On the 30th the Battalion was in the +Ayette right sub-sector, but on August 5 and August 6 there was a +reorganization of the Brigade front, and it went into support. + +Then came the British advance, and on the night of August 20-21 the +Battalion moved up for an attack by the 3rd Army. Leading off in a +dense fog, the 23rd Royal Fusiliers went over the top at Ayette, +capturing Aerodrome Trench, and so clearing the way for other troops +to leap-frog over them and capture Courcelles. + +Moving forward again in its turn, two companies of the Battalion, +under Major W.B. Cluff, captured Behagnies. On the night of August +23-24, being relieved by the Loyal North Lancs, the Battalion moved +back to bivouac near Courcelles, where it remained until September 2. +Moving forward on that day to Vaulx-Vraucourt, it attacked at dawn on +the 3rd and reached Morchies, bivouacking near Doignes. + +On the 6th-7th the Battalion took over the front line from the 1st +King's Royal Rifle Corps and delivered an attack on Slag Avenue, +suffering casualties of 3 officers killed and 100 other ranks killed +and wounded. + +Relieved on the 8th by the 52nd Light Infantry, a bivouac was made at +Beaumetz-les-Cambrai, moving on the 15th to Mory. On the 27th the +Battalion moved forward in support to the Brigade which was fighting +its way onwards, and spent the night in the Hindenburg Support Line +just west of Flesquieres. + +The advance continuing, the Battalion moved again at dawn on the 28th, +reaching Nine Wood just west of Noyelles. From here one company was +sent forward and assisted the King's Royal Rifle Corps in capturing +Noyelles. Then the remainder of the Battalion moved up and took over +the front line from the 1st King's Royal Rifle Corps. Attacking on the +30th, the Battalion found itself up against the strong position of +Mount sur l'Ouvres, suffering casualties of two officers and +sixty-four other ranks. This position could only be subsequently +captured by the use of a whole new brigade for the purpose. + +GERMAN TANKS UNSUCCESSFUL.--Relieved at night, the Battalion moved +back to bivouac at Nine Wood. Remaining there, resting, till October 7 +the Battalion moved up to east of Rumilly on the night of 7th-8th, and +delivered a successful attack on Forenville at dawn on the 8th. During +a counter-attack the enemy used tanks against the Battalion in an +endeavour to oust it from the positions secured, but without success. + +On one tank, indeed, getting close to our line an officer, Lieutenant +Anderson, armed with a rifle, and accompanied by his batman, got out +of the trench, went forward under heavy fire, reached the oncoming +tank, hammered at its side with his rifle-butt, and called on it to +surrender. The iron door opened, and out came the crew, to be escorted +back in triumph as prisoners! + +On the early morning of the 9th the Guards' Brigade "leap-frogged" the +Battalion and continued the attack, the Battalion moving back to +bivouac at Flesquieres. Remaining there for a few days, a move was +made on the 13th to keep in touch with the general advance, Wambaix +being reached after a long march. + +Training was carried out here until the 19th, when the Battalion +marched to Boussieres. At midnight on October 22, under the command of +Major H.P. Rogers, it moved up to St. Python, and on the 23rd to +Escarmain, taking over the front line from the 52nd Light Infantry. At +dawn on the 24th it attacked and captured Ruesnes, and established a +line of outposts on the railway beyond. This was the last actual +fighting done by the Battalion. Relieved on the 26th by the 7th King's +Shropshire Light Infantry, it moved back into reserve. + +With the signing of the Armistice came a welcome change. Duty was +relaxed so far as was possible, and the Battalion employed the rest of +the year in fitting itself out, and getting back into something +approaching its old condition, and marching into Germany, a distance +of 200 miles. + + +1919. + +January found the Battalion in billets at Niederaussem, forming part +of the British Army of Occupation in Germany. Training was still being +carried on, however, but sport was not lost sight of. There were +platoon football matches, whist drives, paper-chases, and so on, while +there was also voluntary educational training in such things as +English, French, and shorthand. + +On January 24 came the presentation of the King's Colour to the +Battalion by Major-General Pereira. Later, on the reorganization of +Divisions taking place, the Battalion on February 27 left the 99th +Brigade, 2nd Division, in which it had served so long, proceeded by +rail through Cologne to Ehreshoven, joined the London Division, and +took over the outposts of the Occupied Zone at Lindlar on March 18. + +On April 15, the Battalion then being back in Cologne, the command was +taken over by Brevet Lieutenant-Colonel L.F. Ashburner, M.V.O., +D.S.O., Lieutenant-Colonel Winter being appointed to the command of +the British Camp at Antwerp. On May 6 the Battalion was inspected and +complimented by General Sir William Robertson, G.C.B., K.C.V.O., +D.S.O., Commander-in-Chief British Army of the Rhine. + +In the event of the non-acceptance of the Peace Terms by Germany, +preparations were made between June 8 and June 19 for an advance, but +the orders on June 20 were held in abeyance and subsequently +cancelled. + + [Illustration: PRESENTATION OF COLOURS: NIEDERAUSSEM, GERMANY, + JUNE 24TH, 1919.] + +On June 22, at the Brigade swimming gala, the Battalion won two-thirds +of the prizes put up for competition, although they had previously +lost (2-1) in the "Kalk" football cup final to the 57th Siege Battery. + +Battalion sports were held at Klef, near Vilkerath, on July 19, the +championship being annexed by "C" Company. A competition for the best +company in the Division was won by "D" Company, who were subsequently +called upon to furnish a guard of honour on the occasion of the visit +of the Army Council to Cologne. + +The Battalion also scored in another way, for on August 1 the War +Savings results for July were announced. The amount subscribed by the +23rd Royal Fusiliers was L1,137 19s. 1d., the percentage of members +being 51 per cent, of the Battalion strength, and the Battalion being +top of the VIth Corps list for the amount subscribed. + +Finally, the 23rd (Service) Battalion Royal Fusiliers (1st +Sportsman's) ceased to exist in March, 1920, after having had a longer +life than any other Service Battalion of the Royal Fusiliers. + + + + ++-----------------------------------------------------+ +| GREAT WORK ACCOMPLISHED--HOLDING UP A GERMAN | +| ADVANCE--SILENCING SNIPERS IN A DERELICT TANK--AND | +| SOME OTHER THINGS | ++-----------------------------------------------------+ + + + + +GREAT WORK ACCOMPLISHED--HOLDING UP A GERMAN +ADVANCE--SILENCING SNIPERS IN A DERELICT TANK--AND +SOME OTHER THINGS + + +From the official narratives available it is possible to amplify, in +some few instances, the great work accomplished by the Battalion, and +which is told but tersely in the War Diary from which the previous +pages have been collated. + +Taking May 3, 1917, as an instance, when the 23rd Royal Fusiliers +formed a part of the attacking force, we are told it was determined to +capture-- + + Fresnoy Trench on a front of 1,400 yards. + + Oppy Support, by a bombing attack, over a length of 200 yards. + + Crucifix Lane, by a bombing attack, over a length of 200 + yards. + + Form a defensive front facing south on a front of 400 yards, + and + + Form eight strong points and four posts. + +The above, it may be explained, entailed the Brigade having, on the +whole, a fighting front of no fewer than 2,200 yards. + +"The task of the 23rd Royal Fusiliers, forming the left assaulting +battalion, was to capture a certain sector of Fresnoy Trench, to form +two strong points, and to form four posts.... + +"The whole of 'C' Battalion (the 23rd Royal Fusiliers) gained their +objective, but, owing to a slight loss of direction, found the enemy +still occupying Fresnoy Trench to their north. + +"A strong bombing party was immediately organized, the trench cleared, +sixty to seventy prisoners and a machine gun captured, and touch +established with the Canadians at the south end of Fresnoy Wood. At +about 5.45 a.m. a strong enemy counter-attack developed from Oppy, +which, coming up over Oppy Support and Crucifix Lane, and over the top +by several well-covered approaches, worked its way north, and attacked +the right company, whose flank was left bare owing to the retirement +of 'B' (another) Battalion. + +"This attack was pushed home with the greatest energy and +determination, and succeeded in driving the right two companies and +part of left centre company out of Oppy Trench. At this point, +however, it was brought to a halt by a strong bombing and sniping post +of the 23rd Royal Fusiliers, who not only stopped it, but +counter-attacked in their turn, and regained some 400 yards of the +trench. + +"This party then halted owing to numerical weakness and lack of bombs, +and retiring a short way, formed a block and a post, and occupied a +shell-hole line from the first point named through the second and a +little beyond it, thus forming a defensive flank in close touch with +the Canadians. + +"This party held out all day, until relieved by the 15th Warwicks at +3.30 a.m. A strong point was also formed immediately after dark and +handed over to the 15th Warwicks on relief...." + +"In one instance the garrison of a post calmly watched an enemy +machine-gun team establish a machine gun in position; they then opened +rapid fire, killed all the team, and brought in the gun...." + +Amongst the gallant services mentioned by Major-General Pereira in the +special order of the day, dated December 17, 1917, is the following: + +"No. 1,079 Lance-Sergeant James Cochrane, M.M., and No. 2,852 Private +Frank Hemington: In the enemy lines west of Bourlon Wood there was a +derelict tank, from which enemy snipers were very active at only 70 +yards from our line, causing many casualties. + +"On December 1, Lance-Sergeant Cochrane and Private Hemington +volunteered to deal with them. Creeping out through our wire, they +succeeded in reaching the tank in spite of heavy enemy fire. They put +two Mills' bombs into the tank, and on the bombs exploding they came +under heavy machine-gun fire, but returned in safety. No further +sniping came from this tank. By their gallant work we were saved many +casualties, and this daring feat cheered and encouraged the men in the +line...." + +In the desperate fighting in March, 1918, the Battalion also +distinguished itself. + +"Hexham Road," says the narrative of the morning of the 25th, "where +the headquarters of the 23rd Royal Fusiliers was in a dug-out, had +been swept by machine-gun fire all the morning, and as the Divisions +on the right had retired, the 23rd Royal Fusiliers were left in a very +precarious and isolated position, from which only small bodies of men +were able to extricate themselves...." + +Then, however, came March 28, and here our men were afforded an +opportunity of getting their own back. It is with delight that we +consequently read: + +"The old trenches were, on the whole, in surprisingly good condition, +the men had ammunition and had had some sleep and food, and orders had +been received that this was to be the line of resistance, and that +there would be no further retirement. + +"It was a day of anxiety, but still a day on which our men could at +last settle down to shooting down the enemy. This they did with great +relish." + +Bald, perhaps, these details may appear to those who have judged the +war from the pen pictures of the various war correspondents, but they +possess the ring of real reality to those who have known what it is to +be shelled day after day and night after night in the trenches, to +have advanced in the face of a rain of machine-gun bullets, or to have +been forced to take shelter in an all too small shell crater, when to +show an inch of head or body meant death or a serious wound. + + + + ++-----------------------------------------------------+ +| PRESENTATION OF THE KING'S COLOUR--MAJOR-GENERAL | +| SIR C.E.

PEREIRA, K.C.B., C.M.G., AND HIS PRIDE IN +THE BATTALION + + +His pride in the Battalion was expressed by Major-General C.E. +Pereira, C.B., C.M.G., on the occasion of the presentation of the +King's Colour at Niederaussem, Germany, on January 24, 1919. + +"First of all," said Major-General Pereira, "I will tell you how +highly I esteem the privilege of presenting these colours to-day. + +"For two years," he went on, "I have had the honour to command the 2nd +Division, and I have been proud of your work in the Field and out of +it, and of the fine spirit which you have always shown. + +"These colours are given you as a mark of the magnificent service you +have rendered in the campaign during the last four years. + +"The record of the Regiment during the whole of its service will +compare with the services of any battalion in the British Army, +whether in the Somme fighting, 1916, Courcelette, Vimy Ridge, and +Bourlon Wood in 1917, the retirement from the Cambrai salient in +March, 1918, or the recent victorious advance which culminated in the +overthrow of the Germans. In all these operations, in spite of mud, +heat or cold, or desperate resistance, you have always shown the +dogged determination to win. + +"It is a fine tribute to the British race that a newly-raised +battalion, without any previous traditions, which are such assets to +regular battalions, should have outfought the German battalions, +trained to war for generations. + +"Perhaps your finest record is that of March, 1918, when along a great +part of our front detached Divisions fought their way slowly back from +position to position, facing overwhelming numbers, and an enemy drunk +with the idea that the final victory was theirs; it was then, when +short of food, without rest, short of men, that you showed what you +were made of, and after successive days of retirement you turned and +held the Germans. + +"It is fitting that the work of this Battalion should be crowned by +the victorious march to the Rhine, and that your colours should make +their first appearance in a conquered country--a country which has +taken us four and a half years to reach." + + + + ++-----------------------------------------------------+ +| "GOOD-BYE, AND GOOD LUCK!"--BRIGADIER-GENERAL A.E. | +| McNAMARA, C.M.G., D.S.O., AND HIS FAREWELL TO THE | +| 23RD ROYAL FUSILIERS (FIRST SPORTSMAN'S BATTALION) | ++-----------------------------------------------------+ + + + + +"GOOD-BYE, AND GOOD LUCK!"--BRIGADIER-GENERAL A.E. +McNAMARA, C.M.G., D.S.O., AND HIS FAREWELL TO THE +23RD ROYAL FUSILIERS (FIRST SPORTSMAN'S BATTALION) + + +Appreciation of and admiration for the Battalion was also expressed by +Brigadier-General A.E. McNamara, commanding the 99th Infantry Brigade, +when he bade it "good-bye and good luck" on February 25, 1919, when it +left the 2nd Division to join the London Division. + +"Owing to the reorganization of the Army of Occupation," he said, "the +23rd Royal Fusiliers, the oldest member of the 99th Infantry Brigade, +is leaving it. + +"I wish to place on record my high appreciation and admiration of the +magnificent services of the Battalion while in the 99th Infantry +Brigade. + +"The Battalion came out to France with the 99th Infantry Brigade in +November, 1915. Since then it has taken a leading part in all the many +and strenuous battles in which the Brigade has been engaged. In these +eventful three years we have seen together good times and bad, but +whether things were good or evil the 23rd Royal Fusiliers have ever +shown the same high discipline, _esprit de corps_, and indomitable +spirit which eventually beat down all resistance and won the war. + + [Illustration: BATTALION HEADQUARTERS: HORNCHURCH.] + + [Illustration: THE BATTALION PIERROT TROUPE: GERMANY. + To face p. 80] + +"The battles of Delville Wood, Bourlon Wood, Ayette, Behagnies, Mory +Copse, Canal du Nord, Forenville, and Ruesnes stand out in history as +a record of the achievements of the 23rd Royal Fusiliers--a record of +which the Battalion may well be proud. + +"The Battalion is now going to another Brigade and another Division. I +wish it the best of luck, and know it will maintain the high +reputation for discipline, efficiency, and, if need be, fighting, +which it has built up since its formation. + +"In bidding it farewell, I wish to thank officers, N.C.O.'s, and men +(including the gallant comrades who have fallen in the fight), for +their gallant services when in the 99th Infantry Brigade. It is they +who have borne the brunt of the hardships and the fighting, and it is +they who have won the war. + +"I cannot express how sorry I am to lose the Battalion, or how proud I +am of the honour I have had of having had it under my command. + +"Good-bye, and good luck!" + + + + ++-----------------------------------------------------+ +| THE BATTLE OF DELVILLE WOOD--AN ADVANCE IN FACE OF | +| HUNDREDS OF MACHINE GUNS--A PERSONAL NARRATIVE | ++-----------------------------------------------------+ + + + + +THE BATTLE OF DELVILLE WOOD--AN ADVANCE IN FACE OF +HUNDREDS OF MACHINE GUNS--A PERSONAL NARRATIVE + + +To the personal side of the late war we have, in a measure, been +introduced by various war correspondents. But there has always been +something actually lacking, and that something is the touch and the +atmosphere which can only be introduced by those who have been through +the baptism of blood and fire. + +In the following pages the _real_ touch is introduced. Every incident +is told by a man who has actually seen and experienced what he +describes. These incidents are in the actual words of the writers. +Nothing is altered. + +Here, then, is the story of the capture of Delville Wood by the 1st +Sportsman's Battalion in 1916, told by Major N.A. Lewis, D.S.O., M.C.: + +"For two days before the fight the Battalion occupied some trenches +near Bernefay Wood, and sustained a number of casualties from +shell-fire. Battalion headquarters was a shelter dug in a bank at the +side of Bernefay Wood. This shelter was constructed by Albany, the +sculler, and as he was killed in the fight it was his last job as +dug-out constructor. Needless to say, he did this job excellently. + +"For some hours before the Battalion moved off to take up its +position, the Huns shelled the area with gas shells. Fortunately, +however, just before 11 p.m., the time for starting, a breeze sprang +up, and we were able to move without wearing gas masks. + +"The move up was not pleasant. The area had been much fought over, it +had been impossible to bury the dead for ten days, and it was a hot +July! + +"Our artillery was firing to cover our move up. Just after passing +Longueval one of our shells dropped, unfortunately, near the platoon +which, with the C.O., I was following. As luck would have it, though, +only one man was badly wounded. The platoon, of course, went on, and +the C.O. went over to the man who had been hit. + +"'It's hard lines, sir,' said the man. + +"'I know it is,' said the C.O., 'but you will soon be all right. The +stretcher-bearers are coming.' + +"'Oh, it's not that,' was the man's rejoinder. 'It's being hit now! +Here have I been all this time in France without having a real go at +the b----s, and now the chance has come, here I go and get knocked +out.' + +"The C.O. made only one remark to me as we passed on. It was: 'Well, +if that's what the rest of the Battalion feels, I have no fears for +to-morrow.' + +"We took up our position in a trench at the edge of the wood. This was +all that remained after the South Africans had been beaten back, and +our attack was to start at dawn on the following morning. This attack +was in two parts, two companies to take the first objective, a trench +in the centre of the wood, and two companies to capture the far edge, +and dig themselves in there. The 1/60th were on our right, each +battalion having half the wood allotted to it. + +"The waves formed up in position shortly before dawn, and it was our +first experience of going over the top as a battalion. The men, +however, were quite cool and cheerful; in fact, one, named Lewis +Turner, asked me, 'How long to go?' I looked at my watch, and said, +'Five minutes.' His reply was, 'Oh, then I've time to finish my +breakfast.' And he did. + +"At zero our barrage started, and our first waves were off, the thing +I noticed most being that most of the men were smoking as they went +over. The whole wood was immediately full of machine-gun bullets. +There must have been hundreds of machine guns--up in trees, hidden in +the undergrowth, in fact all over the place. The Hun artillery came +down on all the approaches to the wood, but not on the wood itself so +long as any of their own men were in it. + +"Owing to the position of the wood, however, at the apex of a captured +triangle of ground, we received fire from both flanks, and also from +our right rear, as well as from the front. + +"The first objective was quickly taken, and then there was a pause +before the advance to the second. A large number of prisoners came in, +and were herded up near Battalion headquarters' trench. We then found +that we were up against the Brandenburg Regiment, which had been +specially sent up to hold the wood. + +"A number of these prisoners next got into a shell-hole near Battalion +headquarters, refusing to come farther, and one of the funniest sights +was to see our R.S.M., Sergeant-Major Powney, who, as a rule, was most +dignified, rush at them, and kick and cuff them out of it. + +"I said to him: 'Sergeant-Major, that's not your job.' He replied: 'I +know that, sir, but I couldn't help it.' Poor Powney was wounded later +in the day, and died of his wounds. + +"The advance to the second objective started promptly, but the Hun +fought hard for a time, and held us up. Every bush seemed to contain a +machine gun, and a redoubt on our left front caused us many +casualties. This redoubt contained several machine guns, with overhead +cover, and a first-aid post. As soon as the C.O. received news of this +check he sent up two reserve Lewis guns. These worked round the +redoubt, and, finding an opening, killed most of the garrison, and +then rushed it. The survivors fled, but Sergeant Royston found one of +their own guns was still in action, and finished them off with it. + +"DEALING WITH COUNTER-ATTACKS.--The final objective was quickly +reached and consolidated, and for a while our men had a pleasant time +dealing with counter-attacks from the front. The field of fire was +good, and they quickly dealt with all the attempts made to push us +back. Our casualties, though, were very heavy, particularly amongst +officers. At one time 'A' Company was commanded by Lance-Corporal +Goodman, and another company by a C.S.M. + +"Then the Hun artillery got busy on the wood, which was, of course, an +ideal mark. For the rest of the day they simply poured heavy shells +in. It was pretty terrible. Trees were torn up by the dozens, and fell +blazing. By the end of the day there was nothing but shattered stumps. + +"The Medical Officer had a busy time, and owing to the barrage could +not evacuate his wounded. The aid post was filled, and the overflow +had to be put in shell-holes round about. The consequence was that +many of them were killed as they lay there. Owing to the barrage, too, +the sending of messages back to Brigade headquarters and the companies +in front became almost impossible. Out of sixteen headquarter runners +no fewer than fourteen became casualties before mid-day. + +"One message was sent back by carrier pigeon, and a message received +from the Brigadier read: 'Hold on. Reinforcements are being sent.' The +reply of the C.O. was: 'Of course we shall hold on. We are being +hammered, but our tails are still up.' + +"As the day wore on many efforts were made to get round our flanks and +turn us out. Bombing parties crept up, and had to be dealt with by +our bombers. It was in one of these tussles that Jerry Delany (the +famous boxer) was killed. + +"At one time word came from our comrades on the right that the Hun had +broken through. So we sent over a party to their assistance, and +finally repelled the attackers. We spent the whole of the afternoon +and evening in this way, but when our relief came up that night we +handed over the wood intact. + +"The scene at night was awful, the wood being ablaze in many places. I +read messages and wrote out the relief orders by the light of a +blazing tree, which had fallen across the shell-hole then being +occupied by Battalion headquarters. + +"During the night our Brigadier came up and held a conference in our +shell-hole. One of our men, Corporal Walker, who was attached to the +Brigade Machine-Gun Company, came to this conference, and when asked +by the Brigadier what he wanted, replied: 'I have reason to believe, +sir, I now command the Machine-Gun Company.' This was actually the +case, and he brought the remnants out, being badly wounded in doing +so. + +"We were relieved by the 6th Brigade, and at dawn returned to our +quarters at Bernefay--that is to say, those of us who were left. Our +casualties were nearly 400, over 60 per cent, of those who went in. +Out of eighteen officers who went into the wood, thirteen became +casualties, every company commander being included in this number, +while the 1/60th suffered equally heavily. + +"As I was making out our casualty return in our headquarters' +shell-hole by the light of the blazing trees, our Quartermaster +appeared with the rations. He threw a newspaper down to me, with the +remark: 'You'll find something interesting in that.' I opened the +paper, and found a full column describing how the South Africans took +Delville Wood! + +"When we were moving back into support, I noticed a horrible smell, +and found it was due to the fact that almost every man was smoking a +Hun cigar, large quantities of which had been found in the trenches, +together with large quantities of soda-water. + +"One of the Hun officer prisoners remarked that our advance through +the wood was the finest thing they ever saw, but that he objected to +being captured by civilians." + + * * * * * + +SOME LIGHTER STORIES.--Another story of Delville Wood, introducing the +M.O. + +"During the Delville Wood show a captured Hun Red Cross man was +lending a hand in the Battalion aid post. Suddenly a scuffle was heard +on the steps of the dug-out, and the prisoner went to see what was the +matter. 'What's happened?' asked Doc. Isaac, busily engaged in +bandaging a wounded man. + +"'Oh, it's only some of those b---- Bosches!' was the reply...." + + * * * * * + +There were many middle-aged men in the First Sportsman's. This +introduces one of them. + +"The Battalion was marching down the main street of Carnoy when a +charming French girl of about eighteen dashed into the line of route, +evidently with the idea of 'parleyvooing' with one of the young +sports. She commenced in a breezy manner chatting with my father, a +youngster of fifty, not noting, at first, his grey hair. Suddenly he +turned his head toward her and smiled. 'Oh, papa!' she ejaculated, and +fled...." + + * * * * * + +The Quartermaster is a noted personage in the Army. This is to +introduce him. + +"While the Battalion was at Aix Neulette the transport came under +shell-fire one morning. The shells came nearer and nearer, in a direct +line with the water-carts, highly polished, the pride of the corporal +in charge. The personnel eventually thought fit to take shelter in an +adjacent shell-hole until the Hun had finished his unpleasant pranks. + +"Over came the fifth shell with a whistle and a scream, and--bang!--up +went the two carts in the air, while shell fragments flew all over the +place. Hanging on a line were various articles of washing, the clean +clothes of the water-cart crew. These were in the line of fire, and as +a consequence were well perforated. + +"Now comes the sequel. They were taken to the Quartermaster on the +following morning, and, so it is said, he refused to replace them _on +the ground that the holes were not the result of fair wear and +tear_!..." + + * * * * * + +Two gentlemen rankers are introduced here. + +"After some months of hard roughing it, two of the Battalion cooks +decided to apply, modestly, for commissions. So they duly appeared +before the Colonel. But the summons to attend did not give them time +in which to get out of their cooking rig, and the sergeant paraded +them in their old overalls. + +"'Hem. Where were you educated?' asked the Colonel of one man. + +"'Rugby and Oxford,' was the reply. + +"'And what were you in private life?' asked the Colonel, turning to +the other. + +"'A painter.' + +"'A painter?' queried the Colonel. + +"'Yes, sir. I have exhibited at the Royal Academy....'" + + * * * * * + +Many Germans left London when the war started, to fight against us. +This is one of them, turned up as a prisoner. + +"We were up the line one day when a patrol brought in a Hun prisoner. +Of course we wanted information, for we were expecting an attack of +some sort that very night. So we hauled our man up before the C.O. and +started asking him questions. We tried him in German, and got no +reply. We tried French with him, and it had no result. Then, seeing he +was eyeing a water-bottle eagerly, I suddenly thought he might be +thirsty. + +"'Ask him if he would like a drink,' I suggested. + +"'I should,' came the reply, in quite as good English as I could have +spoken myself. Naturally I was surprised, and I asked him where he had +learnt his English. + +"'In London, sir,' was the rejoinder. 'I worked as a barber close to +Holborn for years.' + +"We gave him a little drink of whisky, and he told us there would be +no attack that night. But we took no chances. A guard, with fixed +bayonet, was placed over him, and he was told in English that he would +be the first to get his medicine if he had played us false. + +"He had not, however. No attack was made, and he was sent back behind +the lines to the 'cage' next day...." + + * * * * * + +Another. + +Overheard in the ranks on the march up the Cambrai Road in a +snow-storm to take over at Bourlon Wood. + +"Italy!" said the Doc. "It looks more like being _another_ b---- +Wood!" + + + + ++-----------------------------------------------------+ +| EXPERIENCES AS A PRISONER OF WAR--EXTRACTS FROM | +| THE DIARY KEPT BY "MR. BROOKS, THE SCHOOLMASTER" | ++-----------------------------------------------------+ + + + + +EXPERIENCES AS A PRISONER OF WAR--EXTRACTS FROM +THE DIARY KEPT BY "MR. BROOKS, THE SCHOOLMASTER" + + +"Reported missing." + +Many poignant memories attach to such a bald announcement as this. +Dead--probably a prisoner of war--perhaps. And there have been those +who would have preferred, had they had the chance, of a death under +the open sky to imprisonment under the Hun. + +In the diary of a 23rd Royal Fusilier, "Mr. Brooks, the schoolmaster," +as he was once dubbed by his captors, tells the story of how he was +made a prisoner, his detention by the enemy, and his eventual return +home. + +The arrival of a parcel, he says, was a red-letter event; the problem +of how much to eat at a time, and how much to save out of his rations +for the provision of another apology of a meal, was a big one. Boiled +nettles and dandelions for dinner and tea on Whit Sunday, 1917, proves +what the fare actually was; quarters of eggs were unaccustomed +luxuries. "I have picked mouldy crusts off the ground, and prunes off +dust-heaps," he says. + +Dry bread and tea was a luxurious meal; beards had to be cut, or +pulled out by means of borrowed scissors; one loaf, and a small one +at that, had to prove sufficient for the needs of five men; there were +occasional intervals of twenty-two hours between meals. "We were +thinking of nothing but food," he explains. All this time, too, the +prisoners were engaged in heavy manual work, humping bricks, loading +and stacking hay, and so on. + +While in hospital, "Mr. Brooks, the schoolmaster," sold his boots for +tobacco and his socks for bread, and he mixed his jam ration with +coffee in order to eke it out. "Personally, I am hungry all day long," +is how he describes his feelings. "I bought about one-sixth of a loaf +for seventeen cigarettes." + +"I was rather slow in getting into bed," is how he describes another +of his experiences, "and the German orderly picked up my satchel and +hurled it against the wall, open as it was, at the risk of spilling +its contents." + +He pays a deep tribute to the humanity of the French who were still +living in the occupied territory; the Belgians he met were also kind; +some Germans showed traces of feeling, others were no better than +brutes.... + +Here, however, are actual extracts from the diary itself. They speak +for themselves. + +"Three or four Germans began to advance, and it seemed to me that the +question which had been at the back of my mind since a second or two +after the first opening of the guns, Was this the end? was about to be +answered.... + +"With many signs to hasten, my German hurried me on. Soon, with three +others, I found myself by poor old Bill Shoebridge, a good old +grumbler of some fifty summers, who had been cruelly sent out to us in +December, and had kept his end up well, with, at times, many +grumblings. He was painfully hit above the knee.... + +"We came to the village, yet unsmashed, but showing signs that it had +received a knock or two. OPPY was printed in black letters on white +boards in various places, and after wondering for some time what Oppy +meant I found it was the name of a place.... We were then marched off, +and after some more wandering found ourselves in a kitchen with two or +three Germans, who looked quite comfortable, well fed, and at home.... + +"The Germans we saw almost all regarded us kindly, though many of them +had something of mockery in their looks. We now began to see a few of +the French inhabitants. They are splendid. Willingly they give us all +they can spare, and much that they cannot. Were it not for the fact +that they are not allowed to give, and that all their gifts have to be +_sub rosa_, we should, I think, want for little.... + +"Then came the first unpleasant incident. A poor Frenchwoman rushed +out and gave a loaf to one of us. One of the guards, a boy of about +nineteen, snatched it out of his hands, and threw it on the pavement +in front of the woman. + +"At Phalemphin station we were all included in a party of eighty. We +were addressed in English by a German officer. The gist of his remarks +was that we were to be marched to our destination, and that any man +who tried to escape would be incontinently shot, also that any man who +did not behave would be punished.... + +"After this day, Saturday, April 28, for more than five and a half +weeks, day in and day out, we left our prison between 6.15 and 6.40, +struck work and returned for dinner between 11.15 and 1.30, according +to the job, left the prison at 1.30 (if we had not arrived for dinner +until after 1 we got extra time), and struck work any time between +5.30 and 10.30.... + +"In our (British) lines if one (a prisoner of war) has to work extra +time, one always gets time off to compensate, also one has plenty of +food to work on. Here, extra work carried no compensations. The work, +especially latterly, was mainly unloading trucks, pushing the trucks +about, and packing the contents of the trucks in various stores. + +"In the yard were always parties of French and Belgians working, and, +if allowed, they would have given us their souls. At the commencement +of our stay, however, we were told to take nothing from the French, +and it was certainly not many days before we found it was almost +impossible to take anything from them because the penalty was so +great. Whenever the French and the Belgians did get a chance they +availed themselves of it.... + +"Let us never forget that we also got things from the Germans. Until +we reached Phalemphin we had received no rough or cruel treatment +whatever.... + +"At Douai our gaolers were without exception friendly and kind; at +Lille our gaolers were taciturn, and when they did speak, though loud +and threatening in words, laid hands on no man. We were, therefore, +expecting no man-handling, and it came as a fearful shock. It is my +impression that man-handling began in about four days' time, but it +may be that some smaller incident, such as being thumped in the back +by the guard, had passed unnoticed as being mere playfulness on their +part. + +"As to man-handling, it began slowly and increased in frequency, and I +think in severity, as the time went on, until, to me at any rate, it +became somewhat of a nightmare. Within a week of our arrival at +Phalemphin the guard would rush at, beat, strike, or kick any man who +had a pipe or cigarette in his mouth while we were being counted in +the yard.... + +"Suddenly the man in charge in that part of the yard appeared. It was +the first time I had seen him. Judging from first impressions, he was +a quiet, self-contained, steady kind of man, rather like the great +'Agrippa' in 'Shock-headed Peter' to look at.... Suddenly the man +changed, and with a sudden rush was amongst us. + +"'Agrippa,' thinking he was being disparaged, flew at Barber and +struck him violently two or three times in the face. One of our +sergeants, named Morley, remonstrated, and in a second 'Agrippa' had +struck him two or three times in the face.... + +"I don't know what you would think of one and a half spoonfuls of jam, +or grease, or preserved meat, or half an uncooked herring for the only +thing to eat daily in addition to dry bread and a bowl of soup at +midday, but such are our rations, and I can tell you that by now one +has got to look forward to the day's issue as a very big thing.... + +"The first 'tying up' shows him, the sergeant-major, at his best as a +wise judge, jury, and executioner.... The method of tying up was as +follows: In the garden behind our barn were some trees. The man had to +stand with his feet close together and his back to the tree; he was +then tied to the tree by a strap round the ankles. + +"His hands were tied together behind his back and the strap passed +round the tree. The third strap was the worst; it was tied round the +man's neck, and tied tightly round the tree, so that the back of the +man's head was against the tree. + +"Of course, a good deal depended upon the guard--some guards would tie +all the straps lightly, some would tie some men tight and others +loose, and so on. The most popular tree for tying men up to was not +straight, so that being tied up tightly to it was no joke, as I can +vouch for.... + +"A favourite pastime of the sergeant-major was to come and watch the +men at work. Then, indeed, did everyone buck up.... On one occasion I +saw him mercilessly belabour an Australian boy with his stick. The boy +had not been able to respond quickly enough to his order. + +"Well, it is six months to-morrow since I had an English meal. (This +is written in hospital.) The last three days I have tried the tip of +having a drink of coffee at breakfast-time, and having my breakfast +between 8.30 and 10, but I don't know that it is any better. Strange +are the ways of this hospital--no soap and no clean bedding since I +came in. + +"Sometimes peace and go as you please, sometimes every little rule +fussed about. Clothes and food are not in any way satisfactory, but +one is getting a rest, and that is what one should remember.... +Suspense. Waiting with, oh, how many hopes and fears, for that parcel +to turn up. Hungrier and hungrier, and with the dread of tobacco +running out...." + +Then in conclusion comes a pathetic little personal note. + +"I have never read this through since I returned in December, 1918. +Seeing the mention of Bull a few pages back reminds me that I +afterwards heard he had died in hospital. I wrote to his wife on my +return, and found she was a widow. + +"The Germans reported that her husband had died from wounds in Mons +Hospital.

"Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark. It may only be +used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who +agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. There are a few +things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works +even without complying with the full terms of this agreement. See +paragraph 1.C below. There are a lot of things you can do with Project +Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this agreement +and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. See paragraph 1.E below. + +1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation" +or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project +Gutenberg-tm electronic works. Nearly all the individual works in the +collection are in the public domain in the United States. If an +individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are +located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from +copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative +works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg +are removed. Of course, we hope that you will support the Project +Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by +freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of +this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with +the work. You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by +keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project +Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others. + +1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern +what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are in +a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States, check +the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement +before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or +creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project +Gutenberg-tm work. The Foundation makes no representations concerning +the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United +States. + +1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg: + +1.E.1. The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate +access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently +whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work on which the +phrase "Project Gutenberg" appears, or with which the phrase "Project +Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed, +copied or distributed: + +This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with +almost no restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or +re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included +with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org + +1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived +from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is +posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied +and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees +or charges. If you are redistributing or providing access to a work +with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the +work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1 +through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the +Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or +1.E.9. + +1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted +with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution +must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional +terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms will be linked +to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works posted with the +permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work. + +1.E.4.

LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a +defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can +receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a +written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you +received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with +your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with +the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a +refund.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit http://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5.
