THE COLOURS OF THE SECOND OR QUEEN'S ROYAL REGIMENT

The 24th London Regiment (The Queen's); later 7th (Southwark) Battalion

The 24th London Regiment, formerly 4th Volunteer Battalion The Queen’s, received its Colours on the same occasion as the 22nd London and like them owned only one stand of Colours. The design of the 24th London Colours was identical to that of the 22nd except for the numerals, and the Great War battle honours:

AUBERS   FLERS-COURCELETTE
FESTUBERT 1915   MESSINES 1917
CAMBRAI 1917   EPEHY
BAPAUME 1918   GAZA
JERUSALEM   JORDAN

Like the 22nd, the 24th did not add any of The Queen’s battle honours.
