Arthur Leslie Walter Newth (1897 – 27 September 1978) was a British Army officer. Whilst attending Bristol Grammar School he became a corporal in the school's cadet corps. In 1914 Newth was commissioned into the 4th (City of Bristol) Battalion of the Gloucestershire Regiment. He served with the battalion on the Western Front and received the Military Cross for gallantry in 1915. Newth was promoted to the acting rank of lieutenant-colonel in 1918 to command the 16th (Service) Battalion of the Cheshire Regiment. He was 21 when he was appointed and was probably the youngest battalion commander of the war.
