The Artists Rifles have a long history and it was one
of the volunteer teritorial units formed under the
Artists Rifles after WW2 that became 21st SAS Regiment
(again a Territorial Unit and one where the Territorial
Unit actually is more senior in military terms to its
'regular army' regiment - 22nd SAS).
I believe that the Artists Rifles history has been
written and may well be available (though not a best
seller).
Many volunteer battalions were formed at the start of
World War 1, the so called 'Chums Battalions'. Serveral
friends have interests in this area and I will see if I
can get any further information.
