The British Expeditionary Force (BEF) consisted of new British Army Divisions sent to the Western Front in France and Belgium at the outbreak of World War I. Here we feature the “King’s Own Scottish Borderers” - one of Scotland’s most famous Lowland regiments. By King and Country.
All three fought with distinction at Gallipoli before moving to France and the Western Front and fighting there for the remainder of the war as part of the Australian First Infantry Division.
We have decided to depict the 34th Regiment of Infantry as this regiment is one of the glorious regiments of the French Army dating all the way back to 1625 when it was first formed.
