Revision as of 09:57, 24 March 2016
Introduction and background
For a short history of the Regiment readers are referred to the War Memorials dedicated to 125th Anti-Tank Regiment (which the Field Regiment became as is described in the War Diary) which can be found on the North East War Memorials Website at references S140.006, S140.140 and S140.147. The names listed in these Memorial files are being incorporated into the Manpower list below.
The period for which the War Diary is documented here covers that part of the Second World War when the Regiment was associated with 70th Infantry Brigade and concludes at the time - June 1940 - when the Brigade became Independent and was stationed in the far South-West of the UK.
The Field Regiment went on to other duties and, as mentioned, was converted to an Anti-Tank Regiment and was sent to the Far East. Readers wishing to study that period of the Regiment's existence are recommended to consult the Far East Prisoners of War resources on the Internet. and the material held by the Royal Artillery Museum.
Almost 200 members of the Regiment died as Prisoners of War in Japanese hands in the three and a half years following their capture at Singapore, where they served as Infantry - their guns and equipment having been lost when their troop transport was attacked and sunk by Japanese aircraft just short of Singapore.
Many of those casualties perished at sea when the cargo ships carrying them to work in Japan were sunk by Allied ships, submarines or aircraft, the vessels not being marked, as required by International Law, to show that they were transporting Prisoners of War.
Links are included from this page to the Commonwealth War Graves Website pages covering the relevant Cemeteries in the Far East - some of which were visited by the lead researcher and his wife on a trip to Thailand some years ago. Where men were lost at sea, or have no known grave, details will be included as appropriate on their personal pages. Those men who survived the Japanese Prison Camps and returned home will be identified, again, on their personal pages from the list below.
It is hoped that our attempt to include all the names from the Regimental Memorials, and combine those with the material extracted from the War Diaries, represents a suitably respectful presentation, and indeed further Memorial, to the names of those who served and died with the Regiment.
