Standing Medical Board

It was 15 March before DMS 2 NZEF was able to establish a Standing Medical Board, which had for some months been deemed advisable but for which no medical officers were available. A board comprising a president and a member, with two clerks, was set up and posted to the DMS's office. Their duties were to carry out the routine medical boards in Maadi Camp, and it was thought that having recommendations from one source only would assist in the problem of arranging suitable employment for graded men.
