The Queen s (Royal West Surrey Regiment) was the second oldest regiment of the line, the 2nd Foot. This volume of the regimental history is the story of the regiment in the Great War during which the original five battalions (two regular, one special reserve and two territorial) expanded to twenty-seven, five of which were raised as Labour battalions. In June 1917 these were taken over by the Labour Corps which had been formed two months earlier. Of the remaining battalions eleven went on active service, the rest did not leave the UK. This book deals with all of them, taking each battalion in turn, so there is little room for detail, especially in the case of those battalions that did not serve overseas, which are dealt with very briefly. Most space is allotted to the 1st and 2nd Battalions, nearly half the book. The regiment was awarded 74 Battle Honours, the fourth highest number awarded to a regiment, and four VCs two of which were to officers serving with other units. It is strange that one of the two who won the award while serving in one of the battalions, L/cpl W.Sayer of the 8th Battalion, doesn t rate a mention in the book. Personnel losses amounted to 8,000. There is a very good photo of the 1st Battalion on parade on mobilization, some 1,000 officers and men; next to it is a photo of the same battalion parading on 9th November 1914 at the end of First Ypres - two officers and about forty men. Battalions of the regiment served in all theatres of war: Western Front, Italy, Gallipoli, India, Mesopotamia, Egypt, Palestine and India. Macedonia is also included on the war memorial thus acknowledging 95th and 96th Labour Companies which had started out life as the 14th Queen s. The narrative describing the actions of the battalions gives names of officers present for duty at various times, reports casualties and names individuals in action; but there is no roll of honour nor lists of honours and awards. There is a good index

During the First World War men from the Queen's Royal (West Surrey) Regiment served in France, Belgium, Italy, India, Gallipoli, Afghanistan, Palestine... The 1st and 2nd battalions were pre-war regulars. Among the first to fight at the famous battles at Mons and on the Marne they suffered heavily 998 men of the 1st Battalion marched to war in 1914. 32 still lived by November 1914. Only 17 came home. Bolstered by new men the 1st battalions went on to fight at Ypres on the Somme, at Passchendaele and on the Hindenburg line, whilst the 2nd also went to the Italian Theatre. However, the Queen's Royal (West Surrey) Regiment also sent entire battalions of territorials to India, releasing the regular troops stationed there to fight on the Western Front. Some of these men would fight skirmishes in Afghanistan. Throughout the war the regiment grew with territorials and Kitchener's Volunteers This regimental history is a fantastic account of not only the Queen's Royal (West Surrey) Regiment, but of the vast amount of theatres they served in. Harold Carmichael Wylly (1859-1932) was a British colonel and military historian. Colonel Wylly published a number of military-based books, including a biography of Sir Joseph Thackwell. His later works specialised in the First World War.
