Found this link didn't quite work, once I had a little play around managed to see some copies but not many I wouldn't mind seeing all of the RAMC journals from 14-18

Above links with dates.

Note: it appears each Volume, based on three I looked at, probably has a section at the back called Corps News which has information such as promotions, Medals, including foreign medals awarded etc. This section does not seem to appear in the Indexes.

Just updating this thread.

The Journal of the Royal Army Medical Corps, from 1903 to the present, is available on the free-to-view basis at the following site: http://jramc.bmj.com/content/by/year

I have tried the link and have found that you have to subscribe for ramc journal. Personal sub £80.

I love the paternal concern about young recruits smoking excessively:

https://archive.org/stream/n2journal03grea#page/232/mode/2up

...."smoking in moderation is not injurious to the majority of men who are in good health , and it is agreeable."

His gut feeling though was that there was something wrong with smoking, and it would take another 30+ years to prove it.

Very interesting.

It is free for me, but I live in Australia, as does aussienoel. Perhaps it is free if you are not in the UK? Perhaps it may be related to different copyright laws, although for internet copyright purposes, Britain and Australia are usually treated the same.

Can anyone comment on this ?

Cheers

If the website in question is non commercial, and the source journal is fully referenced, I believe this would be quite OK.

Cheers

Maureen

I suppose I could just give the title, author & date of the article.

e.g

Clinical and Other Notes A Note on the Citadel Hospital, Cairo: Captain L. B. Cane

J R Army Med Corps 1915; 24:3 ps. 281-287.

Thanks Aussienoel, Maureen and others for leads to this link. It has helped me sort out something more about the recipient of one of my BVM's!

Thanks for this. The Corps News is very useful as very full lists of gallantry awards and promotions at many levels.. sometimes including citations

and here is an unusual citation...No. 19032 Serjeant J. Cooke. For conspicuous gallantry, resource, and marked initiative on August 26, 1914, when he forcibly took possession of and removed a complete supply train from Boue to Etreux. The driver escaped with his engine at the latter place, and Serjeant Cooke at once commandeered another engine and driver, and having placed all the wounded in the train took it safely into Havre on August 29. During the journey the enemy directed a heavy fire on the train, but did little damage.
