9th (2nd City of London) Battalion, Royal Fusiliers

The 9th (2nd City of London) Battalion, Royal Fusiliers was a territorial infantry battalion of the British Army, formed in the City of London as part of the Royal Fusiliers (City of London Regiment). It was raised in 1908 as part of the Haldane Reforms, which created the Territorial Force (later the Territorial Army).

The battalion's designation reflects its origins within the City of London and its role as the second battalion raised in that area associated with the Royal Fusiliers. During World War I, the battalion formed part of the 47th (2nd London) Division and saw active service on the Western Front. It participated in several major battles, including the Battle of the Somme and the Battle of Passchendaele.

Following World War I, the Territorial Force was reconstituted, and the battalion continued to serve in the interwar period. During World War II, the Territorial Army was mobilized, and the 9th Battalion, Royal Fusiliers again played a role, though its exact wartime activities may have varied. The battalion's existence and organization would have been subject to periodic restructuring within the British Army following both World Wars. Historical records related to the specific activities and disbandment (if applicable) of the battalion are held in regimental archives and historical institutions.
