The British Expeditionary Force (BEF) in 1914 primarily consisted of six infantry divisions and one cavalry division. The key regiments included the Royal Fusiliers, the King's Own Yorkshire Light Infantry, the Manchester Regiment, and the Worcestershire Regiment, among others. The BEF was initially made up of regular army units, reservists, and some territorial battalions, totaling around 120,000 men when deployed to France in August 1914. The force played a crucial role in the early stages of World War I, particularly during the battles of Mons and the Marne.
