The first name on the first (1927) board is that of Auchinleck, then Brevet Lt- Colonel, and on the board appear Brevei Lt. Colonel A. F. Brooke (Field
Marshal Lord Alanbrooke); Wing Commander Sholto Douglas (Marshal of the Air Force Lord Douglas); Captain J. C. Tovey (Ad. miral of the Fleet Lord Tovey). There аге other names, almost as celebrat- ed, in this first term of only 30 men.
On other boards, set at a neck-cricking height round the great hall, appear the names of most of the tast war's famous commanders -with Lord Montgomery as a notable exception.

This graceful and elegant building was once owned by Lord Howard de Walden. It is about as far removed from normal Ser- vice architecture and in- terior decoration on the Aldershot pattern as a Nis- Ben hut from a peacetime Guards meas.
