Pals battalion
The Pals battalions of World War I were units of the British Army that consisted of men who had enlisted together at special local recruiting drives, with the promise that they would be able to serve alongside their friends, neighbours and work colleagues ("pals") rather than having to be mixed in with the regular soldiers of the Army.
