This section provides details of all those men of the Worcestershire Regiment who gave their lives in the Great War during the period 1914-20.
Officers, warrant officers and non-commissioned officers have been referred to simply by the highest rank held at the time of their death, and no attempt has been made to differentiate between Regular, Special Reserve, Territorial and “New Army” personnel.
The total number of names recorded in this Roll is 9446 including 526 officers. This total includes about 150 who died while serving at home with the Reserve Battalions, and about 200 who died of disease in Macedonia and Iraq, etc. The remainder were all killed in action or mortally wounded while serving with one or other of our twelve fighting Battalions.
The records also contain the location of their death, for example F & F means France & Flanders. Reference to d. of w. means died of wounds, p. of w. means prisoner of war.
Where a Worcestershire officer was serving under attachment with another regiment this in noted by use of 'att.' in the battalion column with full details given at the foot of the page under 'note'. If known the Worcestershire battalion is given where the officer was serving before attachment.
If any soldier has received a decoration/award then this is detailed in the far right column.
