TFA blurb review
The 55th (West Lancashire) Infantry Division was a formation of the British Army's Territorial Army established in 1920. It was stationed in the county of Lancashire throughout the 1920s and 1930s, and was under-funded and under-staffed. In the late 1930s the division was reduced from three to two infantry brigades as part of a revised operational doctrine. Following the German occupation of Czechoslovakia, the division created new units around cadres and used these to create its "duplicate", the 59th (Staffordshire) Motor Division. After the outbreak of World War II in 1939 the 55th remained in the United Kingdom, in a defensive role, training replacements for combat units. In 1940, following the Battle of France, the division regained its third infantry brigade. The division was drained of its assets in 1944 and the remnant was used in Operation Fortitude, a deception effort supporting the invasion of France. At the end of the war the division was demobilised and not reformed.
