The 3rd (United Kingdom) Division, known at various times as the Iron Division, 3rd (Iron) Division, Monty's Iron Sides or as Iron Sides;[1] is a regular army division of the British Army. It was created in 1809 by Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, as part of the Anglo-Portuguese Army, for service in the Peninsular War, and was known as the Fighting 3rd under Sir Thomas Picton during the Napoleonic Wars. The division is also sometimes referred to as the Iron Division, a nickname earned during the bitter fighting of 1916, during the First World War. The division's other battle honours include: the Battle of Waterloo, the Crimean War, the Second Boer War, the Battle of France (1940) and D-Day landings of 6 June 1944. It was commanded for a time, during the Second World War, by Bernard Montgomery. The division was to have been part of a proposed Commonwealth Corps, formed for a planned invasion of Japan in 1945-46, and later served in the British Mandate of Palestine. During the Second World War, the insignia became the "pattern of three" a black triangle trisected by an inverted red triangle, created by Bernard Montgomery to instil pride in his troops. Robin McNish was commissioned in the Royal Sussex Regiment in 1948 and served in the Near East, Aden and Baor. His first contact with 3rd Division was during the 1952 Suez Canal emergency. He served on the staff of its headquarters during 1961-63, when it formed the UK Strategic Reserve, and in 1977 was attached to the Division to write the first edition of its history.
