THE KING'S MEN: The Sandringham Company and Norfolk Regiment Territorial Battalions, 1914-1918
by Storey, Neil
1-245260
Examines the usage of the Norfolk Regiment and the Sandringham Company in World War I. The latter was the only unit to be raised entirely from a Royal Estate, and tragically the company, along with King George V's agent Captain Beck, disappeared without trace on August 12, 1915. The battalion was rebuilt and participated in the ill-fated Gallipoli Campaign, being evacuated to Egypt in December 1915. Thereafter, the Norfolks served with distinction in Palestine as part of the Egyptian Expeditionary Force. Explores the history of these battalions' distinguished service using contemporary records and personal accounts.
