Lieutenant-Colonel Sir Frederick Henry Hall, 1st Baronet, KBE, DSO (7 October 1864 – 28 April 1932) was a British businessman and politician.
He was a strong party man, and was accustomed to express his opinions with a vigour which sometimes aroused the anger of his opponents, though his genial personality made him genuinely popular.
The flood of volunteers soon overwhelmed the ability of the Army to process them, and many units like the famous 'Pals Battalions' were raised under the auspices of mayors and corporations of towns up and down the country.
[1][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] 33rd (Camberwell) Divisional Artillery embarked at Southampton for France on 12–13 December 1915 and fought on the Western Front for the rest of the war.
As the units he had raised began to move into the line, Lt-Col Hall handed over command of CLVI Bde to a permanent officer and returned to Parliament.
