HUDDERSFIELD DRILL HALL WAR MEMORIALS BOER WAR 1900-1902 & SECOND WORLD WAR 1939-1945 The Boer War Memorial in Huddersfield Drill Hall consists of a framed Roll, undated and not recorded. The Second World War Memorial of the 5th Battalion (at the time titled 578 (Mob) HAA Regt RA (5 DWR) TA) was unveiled on 7th October, 1950, at St Pauls Street Drill Hall, by General Sir A F Philip Christison Bt GBE CB DSO MC, Colonel of the Duke of Wellington's Regiment, in the presence of the Mayor of Huddersfield and Colonel G P Norton GBE DSI RD, Honorary Colonel of the Regiment. The 7th Battalion's Second World War Memorial was presented by Lt Col S R Hoyle MC and unveiled and dedicated on 2nd December, 1950, by the Colonel of the Regiment and the Rev Canon F Woods, Vicar of Huddersfield. As with the First World War Memorials in the Drill Hall, it was decided to conduct research on those men commemorated on these Memorials for this final book and, as with the Great War Memorials, it was discovered that some names had been omitted from the 7th Battalion Memorial which could or should have been commemorated. There were sixteen names and details of these men are included as an appendix in this book. The Huddersfield Drill Hall Trustees have again approved the commissioning of the addition of these names to appear alongside those of their comrades. It is hoped that the information that has been collected will help the families of the fallen to research their forebears. Lest We Forget.
