Discusses puzzling extracts from orders issued to the Army camp at Aldershot, including one which states that during the autumn manoeuvres 'one hospital orderly per regiment will carry a medical companion'. Thinks it is ludicrous to expect a soldier to have to carry an army surgeon or assistant army surgeon. | |
