26th Division (United Kingdom)

26th Division (United Kingdom)

The 26th Division was a unit of the British Army during World War I, the last division to be raised under the K3 elistment scheme. Although the division began to assemble in September 1914, it was not fully deployed on the Western Front until the following year. In November 1915, the division was redeployed to Salonika, where it remained until the end of the war. Demobilization began in February 1919, and the division was formally disbanded on 10 May 1919.
