This was a unit of Britain’s pre-war regular army. It is also sometimes shown as 10 Brigade RFA.
History
- Comprising 76, 81 and 82 Batteries and the 6th Divisional Ammunition Column, this brigade was located at Kirkee and came under command of the 6th (Poona) Division of the Indian Army when war was declared. 63 Battery replaced 81 Battery before the division left India and sailed for Mesopotamia.
- The brigade arrived there, initially off Fao, in November 1914 and saw service in the Tigris campaigns before being besieged at Kut-al-Amara. The gunners were taken prisoner when the garrison of Kut was surrendered on 29 April 1916. The brigade was not rebuilt until after the war.
