COMPILED BY RICHARD TRIMEN, LATE CAPTAIN, 35TH ROYAL SUSSEX; AUTHOR OF “AN HISTORICAL MEMOIR OF THE 35TH ROYAL SUSSEX REGIMENT OF FOOT.” LONDON: WILLIAM H. ALLEN AND CO., 18 WATERLOO PLACE, PALL MALL, S.W. 1878. PREFACE. The object of the following pages is to bring under one head the information that is scattered through Despatches, Army Lists, Gazettes, Books, Magazines, &c. concerning the History of the different Regiments of the British Army; and to enable anyone at a glance to ascertain whether a certain Regiment served during a certain campaign, or was at a certain action, or what its Title or Uniform was at a certain date. The histories of many Regiments have been published separately, some by authority, and a few through, and by, the _esprit de corps_ of some officer, but this is intended to show every existing Regiment’s services, &c. in a small space, in a condensed form, and in one volume. Since the year 1870, much has been seen, and more heard, about organization and localization, but we have also seen the Regiments (which were the admiration of soldiers of every country in Europe), “meddled and muddled” with till they are only a wretched likeness of what they were. We have seen _esprit de corps_ sapped to its foundations, and attempted to be destroyed by the abolition of every Regimental tradition, badge, and even button, that our civilian Army reformers could do away with. Where are the old Regimental officers who were proud to serve the Crown for _nothing_? Where are the magnificent old non-commissioned officers and men that would follow their officers wherever they led? What is the answer? The officers, commissioned and non-commissioned, have all but disappeared, and the ranks are filled by over-educated boys, who consequently think they are as competent to lead their comrades as their officers. Moreover, we now see all ranks looking forward to the time when they shall be turned out of the Regiment, instead of, as formerly, looking on it as their home for the best part of their lives. Then, as another blow to the old constitution of Regiments, and a reduction of their fighting power, we have the new “Brigade Depôts,” and “Linked Battalions.” Do not the pages of the Army List, with this last heading, betray the fact that the Regiments must have been “linked” together by some one who was incompetent to do so? Take the 27th Inniskilling, a Regiment essentially Irish in its character and composition, “linked” to the 108th Madras Infantry. What connection the person entrusted with a matter of such vital importance could see in these two Regiments is quite beyond the imagination of a soldier, and gives rise to the idea that he must have drawn them out of a hat. The 27th has a glorious history of two centuries; the 108th was only raised by the East India Company in 1854, and has no more to do with Ireland than the Russian Guards. Look at the 31st Huntingdonshire and the 70th Surrey “linked” together at Kingston. Is every Huntingdonshire man who wishes to join his county Regiment to walk all the way to Kingston to enlist? and when he does so, be uncertain whether he is to wear the Huntingdon buff or the Surrey black? Had only the depôt of the 35th Royal Sussex been localized at Chichester to obtain recruits for that regiment, it would have been perfect; as it is, the “Brigade Depôt” at that city is partly formed of two nominal companies of the 107th Bengal Infantry, which Regiment of course never had the slightest connection with the county of Sussex. The two depôts, or four nominal companies, form the “43rd Brigade Depôt.” It surely might have been numbered the “35th Brigade Depôt,” and so have kept up a semblance of the old county number. It follows, therefore, that a man of Sussex wishing to enlist in his county Regiment, first has to go into the “43rd Brigade Depôt,” and then may find himself in the 107th Bengal Infantry, which Regiment he never intended to serve in at all! But the above examples of ill-matched couples will suffice. Is it wonderful that soldiers with the least gleam of _esprit de corps_ desert? The fact is, that the glorious old Regiments of the British Army are in process of being improved off the face of the martial world, and if the system of “Brigade Depôts” is persevered in, the Regiment must eventually disappear. Let anyone read the “General Order” of the 17th March 1873. It says-- “The single Battalion Regiments, which are linked together to form the Line portion of a sub-district Brigade, will, so far as regards the Sub-Lieutenants thereto appointed, and the soldiers therein enlisted, after the date of this order, _constitute one corps_ for all military purposes. “All first appointments to the Line, and all enlistments for Line service, will be for the particular Brigade, _instead of as heretofore, for particular Regiments_.” “The officers and soldiers who may be so appointed to any Brigade, will, for relief, for all duties at home and abroad, and for every military purpose whatsoever, _and in whatever ranks they may thereafter respectively hold, be interchangeable between the Line Battalions of their Brigade, and will be liable to serve in either of those Battalions indifferently, without regard to the particular Battalion to which they may have been first appointed to serve_.” There rang the death-knell of the old Regiments of the British Army! Can anything be more conclusive, or more depressing to a soldier? Is it calculated to foster that pride in, and love for, his own particular Regiment that every true soldier who has worn its uniform has for it? Look again at the “Army Circular” of the 8th April 1876, as to the clothing of the men of the “Brigade Depôts;” it is evident that a man belongs neither to one “linked” Battalion or to the other; he belongs to the “Brigade Depôt” only, and has nothing to do with the traditions or honour of the Regiment in which he may be serving. Would-be Army reformers, of whom we have now far too many, say, “Oh, very few Regiments now have the Title of the county in which they were raised, so all this is of no importance;” but they are not soldiers, so their opinion is valueless. Moreover, the assertion is only partly true, for it is nearly a century since most of the Regiments received the County Titles which they now bear. Would-be Army reformers are also responsible for the Appendix to “Army Circular” of the 1st of December 1877, giving the War Establishment of a Battalion of Infantry, in which it is actually proposed to send a Regiment of boys eleven hundred strong into the field with twenty-three Company officers, whilst four officers of the Regiment are part of, and nearly useless at, the “Brigade Depôt.” We hear and we read everywhere that the Army is over-officered, but what is the opinion of an old soldier, as given in his lecture at the Royal United Service Institution on the 30th November 1877? He says: “How can you expect fire-discipline, from year-old peasant-soldiers, whose non-commissioned officers have little, if any, greater training than themselves, and with a field average of three and a half officers per company of two hundred men? For better or for worse, we have now an army of boys. Take the word of a man who has seen much fighting, both by trained and untrained soldiers. It behoves us, if we would escape disaster in the hour of trial, to take such means as will induce our non-commissioned officers to remain under the colours, and not go forth into civil, or quasi-civil life. And yet more incumbent is it on us to listen to no arguments of theory that would reduce the number of our commissioned officers. Our Army is so small that, more than any other, for the sake of judicious daring, and of judicious economy of life, it must be well, brilliantly, and carefully led. And this cannot be when sparse officers are whelmed in a confused mass of men.” What do the advocates of short service and “Brigade Depôts” say to this? From the foregoing remarks it will readily be perceived that the desire of the Compiler of this book is not to destroy, but to revive, _everything_ connected with every Regiment in the service, and, although omissions may be noted, it is hoped it contains no errors. There are many conflicting statements as to when Regiments were first numbered. Their _rank_ was first regulated by a board of General Officers assembled by King William the Third in the Netherlands, on the 10th June 1694. Queen Anne assembled another board in 1713, to decide on the rank of Regiments raised subsequently to 1694, and King George the First assembled a third in 1715 for the same purpose. Cannon, in his “History of the Marine Corps,” tells us, “These boards recommended that English Regiments raised in England should take rank from the date of their formation, and that English, Scots, and Irish Regiments raised for the service of a foreign power, should take rank from the date of their being placed on the English Establishment.” “The numerical Titles of Regiments, as fixed on the principles laid down in the Reports of the boards of General Officers above alluded to, were confirmed by the Warrant issued by authority of King George the Second, dated the 17th July 1761; and also by the Warrant of King George the Third, dated 19th December 1768; previously to which, Regiments were generally designated by the names of their Colonels.” The year 1751 has, therefore, been taken as the date on which the Regiments of the Army were first recognized officially by a number. The date of the raising of the different Regiments is given as that of the commission of its first Colonel, taken from the official “Succession of Colonels.” The greatest difficulty has been the compiling of the lists of Campaigns, &c. in which the various Regiments have borne a part. All those that appear on the Colours have been given, although many are of inferior importance to many that do not; moreover many Regiments have received distinctions for actions in which others shared who do not possess any record of the fact upon their Colours. The dates given are those in Haydn’s “Dictionary of Dates,” which is assumed to be correct, and, in the case of a capture of a place, the _last_ day of the siege or capture is given. The thanks of the Compiler are due to those Adjutants and other officers of Regiments who have given him information, and also to T. D. Sullivan, Esq., late 56th Foot, Librarian of the Royal United Service Institution, for his assistance and help on many occasions. _July 1878._ ACTIONS IN WHICH THE PRESENT REGIMENTS OF THE BRITISH ARMY HAVE BORNE A PART. _Actions marked thus * are emblazoned on the Standards, Guidons, and Colours._ Aboukir, battle of.--8th March 1801. *Aden, capture of.--19th January 1839.

It wore cuirasses from its formation to 1698, and resumed them in 1821. It bears the Royal Arms as its crest. It is said the Regiments of Life Guards were at one time known as “the Cheeses,” from the old gentlemen of the Life Guards declining to serve in them as remodelled in 1788, saying they were no longer composed of gentlemen, but of cheesemongers. The 3rd and 4th (Scots) Troops of Life Guards, disbanded in 1746, saw much service in the campaign of 1742–47, in Flanders.

After his murder they fled to the continent, and entered the Spanish service with the title of “His Royal Highness The Duke of York’s Troop of Guards.” After the peace of 1659 they retired to the Netherlands till 1660, when King Charles II. made them the Second Troop of Life Guards. It became the Third Troop in 1670, and was disbanded in 1746. The Regiment has the same origin as the First Life Guards. It wore cuirasses from its formation to 1698, and resumed them in 1821. It bears the Royal Arms as its crest. It obtained its sea-green facings in honour of Queen Catherine, whose favourite colour it was. It is not known when the facings were changed, but it was between 1690 and 1742; its standard was changed from crimson to blue in 1758.

It was permitted to wear Fuzileer caps in commemoration of its defeating a French Division of Grenadiers at the battle of Wilhelmstahl, 1762; and also a white plume in the cap for its gallantry at St. Lucia in 1778, with the Grenadier and Light Battalions which formed “the Reserve.” These troops plucked the white feathers from the hats of the dead French, and decorated their own with them. The 5th is the only Regiment that has retained the distinction by now wearing a red and white pompon. It received its title in 1782 in compliment to its Colonel, Earl Percy. It was nicknamed in 1764 “the Shiners” from its clean and smart appearance; and in the Peninsula “the Old Bold Fifth,” “the Fighting Fifth,” and “Lord Wellington’s Body-Guard,” from being at Head-quarters in 1811.

BY ARTHUR ALLEN DURTNALL, _Of the High Court of Justice in England._ By this Chart, any person, however ignorant of the subject, may, by an hour’s attention, obtain a clear view of the broad lines of Indian History, and of the evolutions which have resulted in the dominion of Her Majesty as EMPRESS OF INDIA. It will be found invaluable for EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES, especially in Colleges and Schools, where an Indian career is in contemplation. It will also be found of PERMANENT UTILITY in all Libraries and Offices as a work of ready reference for the connection of events and dates. Besides the History of India, it includes the contemporaneous histories of AFGHANISTAN, CENTRAL ASIA, and EUROPE. A RELIEVO MAP OF INDIA. BY HENRY F. BRION. _In Frame, 21s._ A map of this kind brings before us such a picture of the surface of a given country as no ordinary map could ever do. To the mind’s eye of the average Englishman, India consists of ‘the plains’ and ‘the hills,’ chiefly of the former, the hills being limited to the Himalayas and the Nilgiris. The new map will at least enable him to correct his notions of Indian geography. It combines the usual features of a good plain map of the country on a scale of 150 miles to the inch, with a faithful representation of all the uneven surfaces, modelled on a scale thirty-two times the horizontal one; thus bringing out into clear relief the comparative heights and outlines of all the hill-ranges, and showing broad tracts of uneven ground, of intermingled hill and valley, which a common map of the same size would hardly indicate, except to a very practised eye. The plains of Upper India are reduced to their true proportions; the Central Provinces, Malwa, and Western Bengal reveal their actual ruggedness at a glance; and Southern India, from the Vindhyas to Cape Comorin, proclaims its real height above the sea-level. To the historical as well as the geographical student such a map is an obvious and important aid in tracing the course of past campaigns, in realising the conditions under which successive races carried their arms or settlements through the Peninsula, and in comprehending the difference of race, climate, and physical surroundings which make up our Indian Empire. Set in a neat frame of maplewood, the map seems to attract the eye like a prettily-coloured picture, and its price, a guinea, should place it within the reach of all who care to combine the useful with the ornamental.“--_Home News._ MAPS OF INDIA, etc. _Messrs.

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg™ Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from people in all walks of life. Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™’s goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org. Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal Revenue Service. The Foundation’s EIN or federal tax identification number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state’s laws. The Foundation’s business office is located at 809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up to date contact information can be found at the Foundation’s website and official page at www.gutenberg.org/contact Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS. The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate. While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate. International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate. Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg™ electronic works Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. Most people start at our website which has the main PG search facility: www.gutenberg.org. This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™, including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
