During the year under review a systematic course of
lectures hus boon delivored. We are indebted to Major kennedy of
the R.A.M.C. for helping in this, with a series of lectures entitled,
"The Organization of the Regular R.A.M.C." an additional subject
was addel this year in "Gas Defensive measures and the Treatment of
Gas Casualties in Warfare" Books on this subject wore ordered and
are being distributed to every one in the Section.
Medical Officers and Orderlies have been in attendance at
every Camp to look after Camp hygiene and the health of the Troops.
Some very important and useful work was done before the
Autumn Camps by Sergeant Debb who made a malarial survoy of the
country for one mile round the Camp. Mosquitoe breeding grounds wore abolished by drainage and paraffin and us result, the incidence of mosquitoes in the Camp was less than it has ever been before.
Medical Officers attended all the battery Shoots.
The Section took part in operations during the last Camp at Fanling, formed a kogimental aid Post and obtained practice in
the evacuation of the wounded.
