Click on the Battle of Mons near the top of the page and read about it. Sotonmate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sotonmate Posted 6 August , 2008 Share Posted 6 August , 2008 I could also have told you last night that if you have an interest in the personnel who were at Mons and their fate I was reading a file at the Surrey History Centre in Woking which lists all those from 1 Queens RWS who were entitled to the Mons (1914) Star. There are lists establishing entitlement and, more interestingly, daily casualty returns,wounded,missing and killed. The file number is QRWS/3/2/6 Sotonmate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
