The 15th (Service) Battalion, Sherwood Foresters (Nottingham) was a 'Bantam' infantry unit recruited as part of 'Kitchener's Army' in World War I. It was raised early in 1915 and served on the Western Front from early 1916, first seeing action at the Battle of the Somme. The Bantam concept did not survive the losses of the Somme, and had to be abandoned when the battalions became filled with reinforcements who were not simply undersized but actually unfit for service. In 1917 the 15th Sherwoods became a conventional infantry battalion and saw further action during the German retreat to the Hindenburg Line and subsequent actions. It suffered severe casualties at the Battle of Passchendaele and during the German spring offensive of 1918. It then took part in the final advance to victory in Flanders. The battalion was disbanded in 1919.
