Some 8,700 names are listed. Deaths in captivity are noted together with dates reported missing and dates of repatriation. The index lists every name in alphabetical order. First printed 1919 for private circulation, this rare volume (in its first printing) was compiled from records kept by Messrs Cox & Co.'s Enquiry Office, which opened in Sep 1914 in Craig's Court, Charing Cross and gained full support of the War Office. Some 8,700 names are listed, including officers of the RAF, RNAS, RN Div and Dominions. Names are shown by regiments/corps and by battalions within regiments in the order of capture. Deaths in captivity are noted together with dates reported missing and dates of repatriation.At the outset, the aim was to give advice and information to relatives regarding wounded officers with the British Expeditionary Force. A system was also built up of obtaining all available information regarding officers reported 'Missing', and this gradually came to be the principal work of the enquiry office. The information collected was obtained in various ways but chiefly by means of the fact that a missing officer's cheque was often the first intimation that he was a POW, and it appears that a high proportion of cheques cashed by officers in captivity passed through the hands of Messrs Cox & Co. Details shown are name, rank, regiment/corps, battalion, date missing, date interned and date repatriated, some records have additional notes, for example death in captivity. A very valuable source of information.

This 1944 period manual covers both Western and Eastern theatres of war. The content details elements of vehicle, gun or heavy equipment recovery, backloading and evacuation; the primary objective of this was to return the damaged piece of equipment back to operational use. Often under enemy fire, 'recovery' was a hazardous operation that included dealing with the deceased crew.

"I wrote this book after reading Lt/Col. Davis's excellent book on the Surrey and Sussex Yeomanry of WWII. He mentioned some of the awards in his book and listed the rest at the back of his book, but no Citations. So I took it upon myself to find all the Citations and all the award winners and write a book showing them. I also listed all those who had awards and had died, and the country where they died and the cemetery they are buried in." Dick Buckman

A psychiatric casualty is a military combatant who is unable to continue fighting due to some sort of mental debilitation. The debilitations a casualty can experience are extensive, with many psychiatric casualties developing long-term or permanent post-traumatic stress disorder. Treatment generally consists of simply removing a soldier from combat; however, psychotherapy is sometimes used. This Korean war period handbook covers syndromes, prevention and treatment, and methods used at the time.Psychiatric casualties are recognised as an important and inevitable feature of modern warfare. At the beginning of the 20th century they were scarcely acknowledged (shell shock), and still less treated. Today, as a result of lessons learned in the First and Second World Wars, numbers can be predicted on the basis of battle intensity and effective clinical interventions applied.

This Pattern had its origins in two requirements for lighter patterns of web equipment, one for temperate zones, the other tropical. The result appears to have been a convergence of these designs.
