Bataliwn Sir Gaerfyrddin oedd un o'r rhai cyntaf i'w sefydlu yn 1914, adeg y Rhyfel Byd Cyntaf. Yn rhyfedd iawn, daeth y 200 recriwt cyntaf o Bolton, ond wedyn, cafodd bechgyn o Sir Gaerfyrddin ac o fewn Cymru eu recriwtio. Roedd yr hyfforddiant cychwynnol yn y Rhyl.

English Description: The Carmarthenshire Battalion was one of the early units raised in 1914 as a result of Lord Kitchener's expansion of the regular army by 500,000 men for the duration of the Great War. The first 200 recruits for the Carmarthen Pals came from Bolton, strangely enough, but later they were mainly drawn from the County and wider Wales. Initial training was at Rhyl.
