  About 2nd Battalion The Manchester Regiment:   This infantry regiment was formed in 1881. It went on to serve in many British Army campaigns until 1958, when it was merged into The King’s Regiment (Manchester and Liverpool).   On the outbreak of the First World War (1914-18), 2nd Battalion was still in Britain and so deployed straight to France in August 1914. It stayed on the Western Front throughout the conflict. In 1916, the poet Wilfred Owen was commissioned into it. Owen remained with the battalion until his death in 1918.   Please note that we have many other original ww1 and Victorian regimental letter heads in stock at the moment, so please check out our other items.    These will be sent via royal mail 1st class signed for and dispatched within two working days.
