TOPIC:

In St John's churchyard, Garrigill, near Alston, Cumberland/Cumbria. Not somewhere I expected to come across an inscription like this!

Yet another member of the Imperial Yeomanry who lost his life.

Which regiments/units had the highest casualty rates in the ABW? I've read that in WW1 it was the Machine Gun Corps that had the highest rate of fatalities and was consequently nicknamed "The Suicide Squad."

You can find the answer to your question here . This essay was written many years ago and I re-visited the topic for my talk at the Talana Conference last October, but the basics remain the same.
