About This Book

A chronological regimental record recounts the origin and later service of a British infantry regiment, detailing its stations, campaigns, battles, sieges, and other operations, together with trophies and distinctions awarded. It registers names of officers, non-commissioned officers, and privates killed or wounded, notes honors and medals conferred, and highlights individuals singled out for gallantry. The volume supplies official orders and reports, explanations for granted badges and devices, and brief biographical memoirs of colonels and notable officers, compiled to preserve institutional memory and foster esprit de corps.
