NOTE.—One brigade was with the 25th Division in the final advance in France and took the village of Beaurevoir in the battle of that name, 4th October, took a prominent part in the battle of the Selle, 18th October, and captured Landrecies in the Battle of the Sambre, 4th November. 49TH (WEST RIDING) DIVISION. First Line. _Battle of Aubers Ridge._ 9th May, 1915. The Division was in support and held the line, while the 7th and 8th attacked. The Battles of the Battle of Albert, 1916. 1-13 July, 1916. Somme, 1916. _Battle of Bazentin Ridge._ 14-17 July, 1916. Battle of Pozières Ridge. 23 July-3 Sept., 1916. _Battle of Thiepval Ridge._ 26-28 Sept., 1916. The 49th was on the Somme, Thiepval Front, from 30th June to the beginning of October. They did not attack in the Battle of Bazentin Ridge, but were in support and within the official boundary. Portions of the Division attacked in the Battles of Pozières and Thiepval. The Battles of Ypres, 1917. Battle of Poelcappelle. 9 Oct., 1917. The Division was about the salient throughout the period of the Third Battle of Ypres, and although only mentioned in the despatch as attacking on 9th October, it may claim others of these battles as having been within the boundaries, particularly the two Passchendaele battles. Unfortunately their own history gives almost no guidance.
