Ken Lees Posted 6 December , 2004 Share Posted 6 December , 2004 Charles, Thanks for that. I assume then, that the men were not transfered, or re-badged? Regards, Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlesmessenger Posted 6 December , 2004 Share Posted 6 December , 2004 Correct, they were not rebadged in the Entrenching bns, but many had to change capbadge when they were posted on as replacements. Charles M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Lees Posted 6 December , 2004 Author Share Posted 6 December , 2004 Thanks again, Charles. I couldn't work out what happened to the men of the 1/9th King's Liverpool Regt in January 1918 when they were merged with the 2/9th. They were supposed to be divided between the 1st, 4th & 12th Battalions but the allocation to each was based upon 'full strength' numbers so each battalion received proportionally fewer. That suggests to me that there was no remainder to be sent to the Entrenching Battalions, but I may have misinterpreted that. The quest continues....
