Welcome to the Lonsdale Battalion
The home of the
11th (Service) Battalion Border Regiment in the First World War
11th (Service) Battalion Border Regiment in the First World War
| All will be more comfortable when our division takes over. The Commanding Officer's are well enough off always, apparently, having pretty good dug-outs and a chance of drying up, but I feel very bad about the men, and one can’t do enough for them. —Lt. Col. P.W. Machell, Commanding Officer |
For the first six months there was never a night that the C.O. did not go round the trenches. Not a casual walk round, but four or fives hours out…We had the name of being the best Infantry Battalion in France, among any of those who had to do with us. —Major P.G.W. Diggle, 2nd in Command |
Battalion motto
Honi Soit Qui Mal y Pense — Evil be to Him who Evil Thinks
