  • TWICE a CITIZEN Celebrating a Century of Service by the Territorial Army in London
    TWICE A CITIZEN Celebrating a century of service by the Territorial Army in London www.TA100.co.uk The Reserve Forces’ and Cadets’ Association for Greater London Twice a Citizen “Every Territorial is twice a citizen, once when he does his ordinary job and the second time when he dons his uniform and plays his part in defence.” This booklet has been produced as a souvenir of the celebrations for the Centenary of the Territorial Field Marshal William Joseph Slim, Army in London. It should be remembered that at the time of the formation of the Rifle Volunteers 1st Viscount Slim, KG, GCB, GCMG, GCVO, GBE, DSO, MC in 1859, there was no County of London, only the City. Surrey and Kent extended to the south bank of the Thames, Middlesex lay on the north bank and Essex bordered the City on the east. Consequently, units raised in what later became the County of London bore their old county names. Readers will learn that Londoners have much to be proud of in their long history of volunteer service to the nation in its hours of need. From the Boer War in South Africa and two World Wars to the various conflicts in more recent times in The Balkans, Iraq and Afghanistan, London Volunteers and Territorials have stood together and fought alongside their Regular comrades. Some have won Britain’s highest award for valour - the Victoria Cross - and countless others have won gallantry awards and many have made the ultimate sacrifice in serving their country. This booklet may be recognised as a tribute to all London Territorials who have served in the past, to those who are currently serving and to those who will no doubt serve in the years to come.

  • CAPTAIN E. A. BOURKE's Notes on Seventy-Five Cases of Enteric Fever
    J R Army Med Corps: first published as 10.1136/jramc-04-03-02 on 1 March 1905. Downloaded from 303 A FEW NOTES ON ENTERIC FEVER. By MAJOR J. S. EDYE. Royal Army Medical Corps. CAPTAIN E. A. BOURKE's notes on seventy-five cases of enteric fever in India, in the JOURNAL OF THE ROYAL ARMY MEDICAL CORPS for September, 1904, and in which he eulogises the value of carbolic acid, leads me to think of two series of cases of my own-the one in Africa, the other in Bermuda-which may interest your readers. Many years ago, in India, I was much impressed with the earnestness with which an apothecary-as they were then called­ spoke to me of the value of carbolic acid in the disease, and in the result of the few trials I gave this drug; and subsequently by the articles of Colonel Quill, R.A.M.C. In the Transvaal, in 1901, I was in charge of the enteric section Protected by copyright. of a large general hospital, and for four months I had '150 beds constantly full of undoubted cases of enteric fever .. Great care was taken upon the arrival-usually twice weekly-of a large batch of sick, only to pass into these twenty-five marquees undoubted cases of enteric fever, and at this selection I had the assistance of a very able Civil surgeon of Johannesburg; and upon the following day, and also twice weekly, the Principal Medical Officer and myself again very carefully went over the cases, in order that we might eliminate any doubtful case.
