Just before the regiment was mobilised for war in September 1939, the regiment was organised into the following:
Regimental Headquarters at Woodbridge Road Drill Hall, Ipswich
229 (Suffolk) Medium Battery at Woodbridge Road Drill Hall, Ipswich commanded by Battery Commander Major G. P. Mason
Battery Headquarters, A, and B Troops (B Troop formed by reduction of 231 Bty)
230 (Suffolk) Medium Battery at The Old Barracks, King's Road, Bury St Edmunds commanded by Battery Commander Major N. K. Ellis
Battery Headquarters, C, and D Troops (D Troop formed by reduction of 232 Bty)
Regimental Affiliation with the Sudbury Grammar School Cadet Corps, Sudbury
When the British Army was mobilised on 3 September 1939, the regiment had been based in Ipswich where it was under independent control of Eastern Command.
When the regiment was mobilised, it was equipped with the old BL 8-inch howitzer, and deemed a 'corps medium regiment'.
On 14 October the regiment moved to Louisburg South Barracks in Bordon Camp where it continued mobilisation, and shortly gained the rest of their equipment, LAD section, and signal section.
After joining, the signal section, was soon detached to Mons Barracks, Aldershot for further mobilisation and training.
When troops of the 1st Canadian Infantry Division started to arrive in Aldershot, the regiment was moved to Kingsley where they were joined by their signal section.
