Benedictine Posted 17 November , 2012 Share Posted 17 November , 2012 Hi, Could someone give me advice on the role of runners in WW1. I know that HQ staff would have had runners, but what other organisational elements would have had nominated runners? Companies? Platoons? And how many per company/Battalion HQ etc? If you could point me in the direction of an authorative source too, that would be great. Thanks, Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
