Wonderful! Here is a little something about the Cape Corps which was raised in controversaial circumstances in the Union in 1915 but who went on to do sterling work in GEA and the ME, winning a notable and important victory at Square Hill in Palestine in 1918 where it captured a gun (or two?). At least one of these two guns was returned to SA and used as a memorial to the Cape Corps in Kimberley.

And three more items, sadly not up to Jamie's high standards. I have a few more bits and pieces which I will add as and when I find them.
