Medical Inspections

A medical inspection was carried out as a unit parade once a month. Foot inspections were carried out by the medical officer and, when available, also by a chiropodist at regular intervals of about a fortnight. All native employees of the canteens, the laundry, and the bakery were examined monthly, and the general labourers were also examined from time to time.
