Leicestershire Regiment - other rank PoWs 1914
The following men all appear on a list of Leicestershire Regiment men who were captured on or before the 25th December 1914 and therefore missed out on Princess Mary's gift to her troops.
This list is compiled from a single source at The Imperial War Museum, London: B.O.2 1/256 which is a two-page undated typed list.
The extract below is an edited version of the full transcription which typically gives date of capture and home address. The full transcription is available for sale as a download or CD for £20. Contact me if you would like to purchase a copy.
I also offer a comprehensive, fast and cost-effective military history research service. Follow the link for more information.
