Peter & Steve,

Thanks very much for your responses. I might be being a bit dim, but above in the thread, #20, Peter has said that all these men were training for infantry commissions. The 2Lt WR Mitchell Steve mentions is relinquishing his RASC commission - not infantry. However, Peter has said that it was a 2Lt Mitchell who was serving as a cadet in C Coy.

Could this mean that 2Lt WR Mitchell RASC was in training to become 2Lt WR Mitchell an infantry officer?

Or did it not work like this?

Thanks for the responses gents, much appreciated and far speedier than my last one!

Nigel

My great grandfather was posted to this OCB on 7th April 1917. He was Temp 2nd Lieutenant Edmund Chadwick posted to Lancashire Fusiliers (served in the ranks with the 2nd Btn West Yorkshire Regiment), gazetted 29/8/1917. I would love to know anything about the OCB, the training he would have gone through, who else might have been on his intake, etc. 

 

Regards

 

David
