10th Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps    10th Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps was part of 10th Brigade, 4rd Division when war broke out in August 1914. 4th Division was held back from the original British Expeditionary Force by a last minute decision to defend Britain against a possible German landing. The fate of the BEF in France and the lack of any move by the Enemy to cross the channel, reversed this decision and they proceeded to France in late August 1914. They were in action at the The Battle of the Marne, The Battle of the Aisne and at The Battle of Messines in 1914. In 1915 they fought in The Second Battle of Ypres. Between the 5th of November 1915 and 3 February 1916, 12th Brigade were attached to 36th (Ulster) Division, providing instruction to the newly arrived Division. In 1916 moved south and were in action during the Battles of the Somme. In 1917 they were at Arras, in action during the The First and Third Battles of the Scarpe, before heading north for the Third Battle of Ypres, where they fought in The Battle of Polygon Wood, The Battle of Broodseinde, The Battle of Poelcapelle and The First Battle of Passchendaele. In 1918 they were in action on The Somme, then returned to Flanders fighting in the Defence of Hinges Ridge during The Battle of Hazebrouck and in The Battle of Bethune, The Advance in Flanders The Second Battles of Arras, the Battles of the Hindenburg Line and the Final Advance in Picardy. The 4th Division was demobilised in Belgium in early 1919. 18th Aug 1914 Concentration 19th Aug 1914 Concentration 26th Aug 1914 Shellfire 27th Aug 1914 Enemy Advance 27th August 1914 On the Move 30th Aug 1914 Rear Guard 30th of August 1914 A Hot March 30th Aug 1914 On the March 31st Aug 1914 Rear Guard 31st August 1914 Continued withdrawals 31st Aug 1914 On the March 1st Sep 1914 Rear Guard 1st Sep 1914 On the March 2nd Sep 1914 Rear Guard 2nd Sep 1914 On the March 3rd Sep 1914 Rear Guard 3rd of September 1914 Across the Marne 3rd Sep 1914 On the March 4th Sep 1914 Rear Guard 5th Sep 1914 Rear Guard 6th Sep 1914 Advance Guard 6th Sep 1914 On the March 7th Sep 1914 Advance Guard 8th Sep 1914 Advance Guard 9th Sep 1914 Bridging 10th Sep 1914 Bridging 10th of September 1914 Marching 30th Oct 1914 Under Shellfire 5th December 1914 Quiet 9th December 1914 Uniforms 26th Apr 1915 Shelling   27th Apr 1915 Motor Ambulance Convoy   1st of November 1915 Marching Orders 7th of November 1915 Present Stations 29th of November 1915 Moves Completed 19th of December 1915 Movement Instructions 8th of January 1916 Moves   2nd of February 1916 Moving to the Trenches   1st July 1916 Bombardment   If you can provide any additional information, please add it here.

Royal Army Medical Corps Charles Boston was awarded the Military Medal for eight hours hard work dressing wounds in no-mans land at Redan Ridge where, although badly injured by shrapnel, he managed to drag back a badly wounded comrade to British lines. He was stretchered to an aid post and shipped back to hospital in England. Charles survived the battle and died at home in the Isle of Man in 1947. Add to this record. 224385 Pte. Walter Samuel Hook MM. 10th Field Ambulance Royal Army Medical Corps Walter Hook was my great grandfather. Add to this record. 205919 Pte. Abraham Hill Lord 10th Field Ambulance Royal Army Medical Corps My grandfather 8221 A H Lord RAMC was sent back from France sick, but not wounded, in Oct 1916. Probably gassed. Reclassified C2. Transferred to RAMC Prov Company Aldershot then Blackpool. Transferred to 362 Reserve Employment Company. Given new Army No. 251473. Reclassified B1 Aug 1917. Sent back to France. Then to 236 Divisional Employment Company, 39 Divn, Varangeville. I am trying to establish when he went to Varangeville, probably Mar 1918, and when he was demobilised, probably mid Jan 1919. I have some notes he made about pay. The amount he was due in Sterling (old pence)and the amount he had already drawn, in Francs. From 22 Mar 1918 to 10 Jan 1919 304 days at 1/- (12d) which would be army pay, probably from when he was posted to Varangeville, but he also records an additional 304 days at 4d and a further 150 days at 4d. I feel that these sums may give a clue to dates. Was the extra 4d per day anything to do with his good conduct stripe or was it for some other reason. Alan Lord Add to this record.
