Isle of Wight Rifles | ||
This small web site is dedicated to the memory of a few men of Lake, Isle of Wight, who served in the Isle of Wight
Rifles in or before WWI. As Territorials, The IW Rifles were only obliged to fight in the UK, but many volunteered for overseas service,
and many did not return.
