In-Reply-To: Exact number of British Divisions 1941-1945 posted by Taylor on 2:12:11 PM 14 Dec 2002

Appendix I of David Fraser's And We Shall Shock Them - The British Army in the Second World War (ISBN 0-304-35233-0) lists each of the 48 British Divisions formed during the War and their theatre of active service with brief comment. The list excludes Home Defence "County" Divisions as well as Colonial and Indian Army Divisions. The Appendix does not specifically indicate the period of time spent in a particular theatre.

This is from Kevin. Thanks!

If the person posting this message left their e-mail address, we inserted some random characters to prevent spammers from harvesting their address. Spammers do this with automated "bots" that constantly search the Web looking for e-mail addresses. Since you're a human being, not a bot, you can easily obtain the real address by removing the text that says "ThisisToPreventSpam-XYZ-RemoveThis." including the random number XYZ and the period at the end. For example, <whitten@ThisIsToPreventSpam-123-RemoveThis.despammed.com> would become <chris-(@)-interesting.com>.
