In the first ten days alone no fewer than 16,000 cases were landed and distributed among the hospitals ashore. Published in 1918, this book is the personal memoir of Tickner Edwardes who was an operating theatre orderly based in Egypt during the First World War. In it, he brings his uniquely perceptive and eloquent writing style to document the roles and responsibilities undertaken by the R.A.M.C. in Egypt to maintain the health, welfare and well-being of all personnel in whatever field of operations they were engaged in. - Summary by Steve C]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>35776</itunes:duration><itunes:keywords>allied,army,corps,edwardes,egypt,facilities,medical,military,operations,royal</itunes:keywords><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/ed04dbd5d0e52020b2d446438948e2fd.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item></channel></rss>
