 Memorials and Monuments in Portsmouth - Site Information
John has been assembling a list of memorials in the South of England for the UKNIWM but had not been overly concerned with Portsmouth assuming that, as a Naval town it's memorials would already have been listed.
The IWM provided us with a list of the 159 memorials they were aware of in Portsmouth, but a perusal of them quickly showed that it fell well short of the actual number.
We decided that at this stage we would not normally include persons whose memorials indicated that they were members of the armed services but which gave no record of their service.

 Viquesney's 1936 list of memorials
About 1936, Viquesney published this partial list of his "memorials" that had been placed around the country.

The artist once claimed there were over 300 of his Doughboys placed around the country, with at least one in every State in the Union, but so far only about half that total has been found in 39 States.

Here then is a very debatable and incomplete list of contenders for the title of the 20th Century's bloodiest battles.
