TOPIC:

Hi, everyone, just came across this small manual, apparently owned by an Ambulance Sgt, looks like Jas D. LYONS, of the 1st Battalion Black Watch (cannot find him on the rolls)Perhaps V.B. means volunteer Battalion if there was one! very interesting little book, not to sure of the cures though.

Saxon,

That looks fascinating. Certainly the stamp of the 1st Volunteer Batallion of the Black Watch.

How many pages are in the manual?

With thanks
David

Hi, David, there are about 185 pages covering most things from digging latrines,(general Hygiene) to bone structure, dealing with wounds, code messages between Dressing Station and field Hospital etc..

Fantastic Find......

Would love to have a good read to see if the following is listed.....

Take a look at this thread......
