War Diaries

Examine the war diaries of the 92nd Infantry Brigade, including the 10th East Yorkshire Regiment, the Hull Commercials, featured in the series 'The Trench'.

Diaries can help to build a daily picture of war service. The content of these diaries varies, but they often mention the battles in which the men were engaged as well as the more mundane duties required of a unit in the field. It is possible to identify precisely where a unit was at any given time during the war and what happened to it. Original war diaries can be found at the Public Record Office.
