The Cast Iron Sixth

[Martin Hornby]

I have a copy of the history of the Sixth Battalion London Regiment (The City of London Rifles).

I am happy to look anything up and to copy extracts

Martin - could you let me know if there is any mention of a Lieut S.G.Harris? Believed to have served with this unit in the UK only.

Paul,

I have the same book; did a quick search of the index with no luck.

Many thanks David - it was only a long shot.

2. Stan Feltham no. 2643- enl. 4.9.14, 1/6th Frc from 17.3.15; GSW Festubert - 15.5.15

3. Percy Ralph no. 2425 - enl. 4.9.14, 17.8.15 to Frc, GSW to Neck at Loo's 22.10.15, RTU 27.10.15, promoted L/Cpl, Wounded Flers-Courcelette 15.9.16 - also shellshock, cardiac disease, depression.

Can you add anything from the History as background to their service ?
