“These memorials recognise the men of the RGLI who fought and died in the First World War at Masnieres and especially at the Battle of Lys where they were virtually wiped out.”

The Bailiff of Guernsey

“I want to convey to the Guernsey authorities my very high appreciation fo the valuable services rendered by the Royal Guernsey Light Infantry. I regret the casualties were heavy”

Major General Beauvoir de Lisle

“In these big offensives, groups of men from towns and villages across Britain were lost almost instantly and the social effects were unrecorded, enormous and lasted for generations.”
