9th Battalion AIF Somme 1916
Hello all,*
I have an old Australian*red flag with some graffiti on it. The graffiti says: A Company 9th Battalion Somme 1916 Then some names which I believe are "Albert" "Harold" and others unreadable.* Can anyone suggest where I could find a company photo or nominal role for A Company 9th Battalion in 1916? Hoping to dip into the knowledge base here. |

A very nice flag!
The ADFA AIF Database is a good place to start to see who was in the battalion. https://www.aif.adfa.edu.au/index.html Mick

I think the names are of towns or villages in the battlefield area. Albert for certain, possibly Rancourt, Hardecourt and maybe Pozieres. Just guessing of course.
