Royal Field Artillery

[1] It was created as a distinct arm of the Royal Regiment of Artillery on 1 July 1899, serving alongside the other two arms of the regiment, the Royal Horse Artillery (RHA) and the Royal Garrison Artillery (RGA).

It ceased to exist when it was amalgamated with the Royal Garrison Artillery in 1924.

It was responsible for the medium calibre guns and howitzers deployed close to the front line and was reasonably mobile.

It was organised into brigades, attached to divisions or higher formations.
