568: 867: 844:. In June, as the international situation worsened, a partial mobilisation of the TA was begun in a process known as 'couverture', whereby each AA unit did a month's tour of duty in rotation to man selected AA gun and S/L positions. On 24 August, ahead of the declaration of war, AA Command was fully mobilised at its war stations. The 5th Battalion was deployed to support the Newcastle Gun Defence Area (GDA). The S/L layouts had been planned on a spacing of 3,500 yards (3,200 m), but due to equipment shortages this was extended to 6,000 yards (5,500 m). 559:(WO) issued instructions to separate those men who had signed up for Home Service only, and form these into reserve units. On 31 August, the formation of a reserve or 2nd Line unit was authorised for each 1st Line unit where 60 per cent or more of the men had volunteered for Overseas Service. The titles of these 2nd Line units would be the same as the original, but distinguished by a '2/' prefix. In this way duplicate battalions, brigades and divisions were created, mirroring those TF formations being sent overseas. 50: 99: 81: 249:. It took some moral courage to appear in the street in Volunteer uniform: members of the 1st Northumberland RVC were sneered at as 'noodles'. However, the movement continued to grow: in February 1860 the 1st absorbed the 2nd Northumberland RVC of three companies, also formed at Tynemouth on 4 January that year. In August 1861 it split to form the 1st (Tynemouth), 8th (three companies at 893:. In November 1940 AA Command changed its S/L layouts to clusters of three lights to improve illumination, but this meant that the clusters had to be spaced 10,400 yards (9,500 m) apart. The cluster system was an attempt to improve the chances of picking up enemy bombers and keeping them illuminated for engagement by AA guns or 712:, later 5th (Reserve) Btn, was the last of the duplicates formed with the 3/4th, 3/6th, and 3/7th formed in June 1915.

Following the end of hostilities most territorial artillery regiments had been placed in suspended animation by late 1946. On 1 January 1947 most of these regiments were reconstituted and many new regiments were formed as part of the reformed and re-organised TA, with new numbers according to the
