What is Richard Giles about?

were the medical officers, Quartermaster O'Connor acting as paymaster. There were also 143 rank and file of the Army Hospital Corps, composed mostly of army reserve men. For the previous three or four days these men had been undergoing a hurried course of instruction in the special duties to be performed by a bearer company in the field-duties that require such special training as to necessitate the presence of a large staff of instructors at Aldershot. If such importance is attached to this system, it hardly seems fair to send the men into active service while they are totally ignorant, or almost totally ignorant, of its duties. And this is not all, for we understand that many of the officers have not been so specially instructed. No fewer than three of the medical officers in No. i and one in No. 2 Company had not gone through the course of instruction at Aldersbot, and another officer in No. 2 Company failed to obtain a certificate after passing through this course. Yet these officers were put into these responsible positions, and others that had received the special instruction were detailed for other and less important duties.
