"The Carmarthenshire Battalion was one of the early units raised in 1914 as a result of Lord Kitchener's expansion of the regular army...for the Great War. David Lloyd George...initiated a recruitment drive for a specifically Welsh fighting force, of which the Carmarthen Pals were a component part... In April 1915 the Pals joined 114 Brigade of the 38th (Welsh) Division and crossed to France in December. The Pals went into the trenches at Givenchy, moving to the Somme in May 1916 ...The battalion was part of the Welsh attack on Mametz Wood when the Battle of the Somme opened in July, moving to the Ypres salient where in July 1917 it attacked Pilckem ridge as part of the Passchendaele battle... In the closing months of the war the battalion suffered grevious casualties - losing 40 officers and 900 other ranks as it took part in the victorious counter-offensive that drove the Germans across the Ancre on the Somme to the Canal du Nord." .
