I know a lot of people come direct to the forum without realising there's a another side to our site
www.themanchesters.orgIt's still being built and probably will never be finished, in that we'll always be adding to it
The backbone is the battalion histories, the are available from the battalion index page
http://www.themanchesters.org/batt%20index.htmI have tried to vary the way we tell the histories by getting different people to write them and in some cases we have them written by the soldiers in a diary format. Included within the battalion histories are many stories of the soldiers themselves from the viewpoint of their family and friends.
