On this day, William fisher of the 1st Lancashire fusiliers landed at Gallipoli, he survived but was killed there around 5 weeks later
For the more serious bayonet collector, a P1907 hooked quillon by JAC, stamped ‘N’ naval issue, a rare bayonet, message me if interested
Anybody looking for original bayonets, I have P1907, Remington p1913 & p1917, French chasspot 1871 date, a lithgow 1918, sensible offers
18 nov 1916, last day of the Somme battle,one of these men is Pte stk/286 Hubert willoughby Wilson, 10th royal fusiliers (stockbrokers) he fell this day alongside his brother stk/285 Geoffrey Wilson who could possibly be the other soldier

Paid a visit to @ARWMP today, a great project to save war memorials for future generations in Leicestershire, If anyone knows of a war memorial thats in fear of being lost, get in touch please
Help needed please, can anyone make out this name? From Oakham, Rutland, the front are Leic yeomanry soldiers, 3 of which already identified
A cheap recent purchase, unsure to its originality but it has great wear, colour and looks great on a helmet either way

Picked up this lovely card today #leicestershireregiment
@agh57 The view from my seat!
View across the Ancre Valley yesterday afternoon. Ancre British Cemetery can be seen in the hollow and one can clearly see the location of the now exhumed R.N.D. Cemetery above. Scene of three major attacks on 1/7/16, 3/9/16 and 13/11/16.
My nanny would have been 96 today. She didn’t get me. She couldn’t understand the football and the history and total lack of interest in her trying to teach me how to cook. But she would have walked through fire for me regardless of any of that, and I miss that. And I miss her.
Remembering the 620 officers and men of the 1st Herts who went over the top into a hail of machine gun fire near Ypres 106 years ago today. Within two hours every officer and more than 75% of other ranks were killed or wounded. See their story here: youtu.be/tjJbS0PL0Es
On this day 107 years ago, the service battalions of the Leicestershire regiment, part of 110th brigade, 21st division attacked Bazentin Le Petit wood & village, here are a few faces that fell this day
Today marks the 105th anniversary of the Battle of Le Hamel. It was a successful attack made up of the Australian Corps & American troops with British tanks and air support. It was the first set-piece operation planned by Lieutenant General John Monash 1/2

Messines, April 2012. My 1st soldier. An experience that has determined the path of my career. Identification proved impossible and that became my driving force, constantly striving to improve, to keep chances of identification as high as possible. #nomanshouldbeleftbehind
It's been a cr*p week & I've not been feeling my best health wise the past couple of days so think I deserve just a little treat on a Saturday night
Help needed please, can anyone make out this name? From Oakham, Rutland, the front are Leic yeomanry soldiers, 3 of which already identified
A cheap recent purchase, unsure to its originality but it has great wear, colour and looks great on a helmet either way
