Remembering those ORs who endured the 5 month siege and were taken into captivity by the Turks at the fall of Kut, 29/4/16, and from which few emerged alive. Note some attached men ( a lot of Regimental signallers were attached to the RE for this campaign) will also appear under their original unit. Whilst the line regiments seem well recorded the supporting arms seem often overlooked. Work in progress, not sure how many names I will find but I believe there should be about 100 (I have 90 so far); please advise me of any errors omissions or explanations needed.
