Both the 1st and 2nd Battalions formed part of the original Expeditionary Force in France in 1914 and continued to serve with distinction throughout the war. The regiment was to grow in size quickly and soon totalled an incredible thirty seven battalions. Twenty four of these units actually saw active service overseas and participated in actions at the Aisne, Neuve Chapelle, the Somme, Montagne de Bligny, the Marne, Cambrai Gallipoli, Vittorio Veneto, Loos and Ypres, whilst others carried out various military duties in all corners of the Empire. Earning no less than 66 Battle Honours, four Victoria Crosses, the Croix de Guerre and innumerable other decorations, as one would expect, the regiment??s achievements were great, however, its losses were considerable too and total of 13,000 officers and men laid down their life for King and Country!
