The 9th Light Horse Regiment
As part of the 3rd Light Horse Brigade, it sailed from Melbourne on 11 February 1915 and arrived in Egypt on 14 March 1915. The light horse were considered unsuitable for the initial operations at Gallipoli, but were subsequently deployed without their horses. The 3rd Light Horse Brigade with Harold landed on 16 May 1915 and was attached to the New Zealand and Australian Division. The 9th was fortunate to be the reserve regiment for the Brigade’s disastrous attack on the Nek on 7 August, but subsequently suffered 50 per cent casualties attacking Hill 60 on 27 August. Exhausted and under-strength, the 9th then played a defensive role until it finally left the peninsula on 20 December 1915. Harold however had left for Malta and later England with sickness in August 1915, where after a period of recuperation joined the 48th Battalion in October 1916 never returning to the Light Horse who remained in the Middle East.
The 48th Battalion - Harold joined the “Joan of Arc” (the Maid of Orleans) battalion in October 1916 just after Pozieres, was attached to the 4th Division Traffic Control from March 1917 to May and then rejoined the Battalion for the battle of Bullecourt and then Messines where he was wounded and died. Harold Heath's name is located at panel 146 in the Commemorative Area at the Australian War Memorial.
