lookup 2/17th London Regiment, please

[Jef]

I was wondering if someone could give me the whereabouts of the 2/17th London Regiment ( poplar & Stephney Rifles) from 1 till 11 november 1918. According to the 30th Division history the Poplars were very actice during the last days of WWI.

Kind regards,

Jef

Jef - I'm afraid it looks as if the right member hasn't found this post yet. We must keep hoping ? When I was in the

Met.. Police I was at Bethnal Green - but Poplar and Stepney were part of 'H' Division - so I know it well. Mervyn

Hello Mervyn, thank you for your reaction, but according to the 30th divisional history the 2/17th London's were here in Flanders at the end of the war. I also enclose an entry from British Regiments by Brig James . So I still hope one of GMIC's gentlemen has a regimental history in his collection.

kind regards,

Jef

Meanwhile I found the info about the 2/17th Londeners. Trefor Jones , author of "On Fame's Eternal Camping ground "supplied the information.

Thank you gentlemen,

Jef
