Good news. All Of London’s Remaining Green Cab Shelters Now Have Listed Status. London's famous cabmen's shelters were designed by a member of the Artists Rifles. The architect Maximilian Clarke (No.967) served in the regiment for 29 years. secretldn.com/london-green-c…
The latest donation to the museum - a tankard awarded to Pte J.W. Marshall for bayonet fighting in 1896. Born 1875. Joined 1892. C/Sgt 1901. Lt 1914. Capt 1916. CSM 1921. Jack was a regimental character and an expert with the bayonet as a young man.

Barnes Wallis served in the Artists Rifles during WWI. As a Corporal he was employed to design the sewage system for their camp at Hare Hall.

Looking forward to this. Both Nash brothers were members of the Artists Rifles.

John Nash’s painting Over the Top, commemorates the 1st Artists' Rifles attack OTD 1917, near Marcoing. Of the 80 men, 68 became casualties within minutes. Nash was one of the 12 spared. The work is in the IWM. He presented another version to the Artists Rifles.
Edmund Edlmann MC joined the Artists Rifles in 1915 and commissioned into the Lincolns. He was one of our spies. His cousin Herbert served with us in the Boer War and commanded the 1st Bn in France. Another cousin, Francis Edlmann DSO, joined us in 1914.

Worth a retweet so the quality of this drawing isn't lost in a reply! Anyone still do watercolours in their notebooks on training courses?

In July I visited William Alfred Burns of the Artists Rifles @CWGC Louvencourt. The cap badge of the Artists Rifles is my favourite - it features Mars and Minerva; the God of war and Goddess of wisdom & was designed by Leonard Charles Wyon, a famous engraver at the Royal Mint.
Many very fine men served in the Artists Rifles.

William Morris, John Ruskin, William Holman Hunt, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Frederic Leighton, John Everett Millais, William Burges, G.F. Watts and many other well known artists and artistic men joined the Artists Rifles when it formed 162 years ago yesterday.
OTD 1860 the Artists Rifles was formed. Many of the best-known British artists of the late 19th century joined. They served as an OCTU during both world wars and were reformed as 21 SAS in 1947. In 1951 volunteers formed B Sqn 22 SAS.
John had this on his wrist during the Battle of Tumbledown. He gave it to me this evening on the train back to Scotland. Moved doesn’t even begin to cover it. I’ve never worn a watch. Just changed the habit of a lifetime.
Edward Thomas was killed OTD 1917. He had trained with the Artists Rifles.
William Holman Hunt was one of the founding members of the Artists Rifles.

@artistsrifles Thanks for sharing this additional information! I learned something new myself because of your reply!

We popped into Trentishoe church after school today as we’d never been before and stumbled across this roll of honour to the Great War. The @artistsrifles soldier, L/Cpl Edward Ducarel Palmer, was killed on 30.10.1917 and is also commemorated on the @RHSWisley memorial. #ww1

Hoping to share the most amazing news about a project relating to the 1st Polish Armoured Division - soon. In the meantime, feast your eyes on these 1PAD boys and their Sexton and tell me how you could not love the Poles. (IWM)
@RichardCPendry It's even more complicated than that. The UK SAS regiments were disbanded in 1945, 21 SAS reformed as a TA regt fm @artistsrifles in 1947 which then spawned B Sqn for operations in Malaya. 22 SAS was finally formed in 1952.
Was talking to @drtorhumphreys about #WW1 war artists and realised how much the work of artists like Paul Nash has influenced how I see and understand the landscape of the Great War: Wood on the Downs (1929) versus the trees at Petit Douve near Messines (2022).
@CalaisFrom @sommecourt @drtorhumphreys Nash married Margaret Odeh in Dec 1914 (at St Martin’s-in-the-Fields) shortly after he’d joined the @artistsrifles
