But when the brigade advanced again the passage of the Shahur Tangi Pass was unopposed, the 2/6th Royal Sussex reaching the fortified camp beyond on 16 June. The next 6 miles (9.7 km) march to Barwand entailed the heaviest fighting of the campaign, and picquets on the hills had to fight their way into position and then fight to hold them, sometimes through the night. A further 3 miles (4.8 km) advance was then made on 20 June to secure water supplies. The tribesmen made a determined stand on the Ispana Raghra plateau before the force was able to camp there. Next day 45th Bde was sent to destroy the village of Nanu at the head of the Splitoi valley, with 2/6th Sussex suffering one killed and 11 wounded in seizing the heights and then acting as the rearguard. On 23 June 45th Bde cleared a very difficult

In line with their pre-war training they prepared all the important road and rail bridges for demolition to impede an invading force, manned coastal lookout stations, and mounted guards on important infrastructure locations such as ports and oil tanks. In the prevailing mood of 'spy fever' they were also alert for possible espionage. On 14 July 1915 the battalion's remaining Home Service men were sent to join the

There was still a month of hard duty, picquetting the heights and escorting supply convoys up the Shahur Tangi pass, while many sick had to be transported down to the nearest hospital, five days' march away. Once the peace conditions were completed, the field force withdrew by stages through
Jandola and Zam to Tank, with 2/6th Sussex having to provide picquets and road repair parties. On 20 August the battalion entrained at Tank.

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. Later 3rd Line units were created to train reinforcements for the 1st and 2nd lines.

From May 1915 the remaining Home
