Hello Dangerfield

Thanks for the recommendations. There are a couple which we were not aware of and if added to the CEF Study Group's list of Recommended websites, you will be credited.

CEF Study Group website

This website is a spin-off of the informal "Canadian Pals" group that formed on the Great War Forum in England but dedicated to the research and study of the British Expeditionary Force. While the material on the site is still limited, this also presents the opportunity to contribute information and influence its development.

The website URL is as follows: http://www.cefresearch.com/phpBB2/index.php

Here is a small sample from the recommended list:

The 5th Royal Irish Lancers Jan 2006

This site attempts to tell the story of the oldest lancer regiment within the British Army. Ranging throughout it's turbulent history dating from 1689, temporary disbandment in 1799, reformation in 1858 and it's eventual disbandment in 1922. "The Redbreasts" or "The Daily Advertisers" as the 5th Royal Irish Lancers were known, went into battle with the motto of the Order of St Patrick "Quis Separabit" (Who Shall Separate?). Detailed site with lots of linkages to other Irish military units.
