It considers how matters of manpower conservation shaped RAMC work in terms of general military recruitment and how the policies of recruitment affected the corps itself. It also examines how the work of the RAMC, particularly on manpower conservation, affected how soldiers viewed the corps. The chapter outlines how tensions between the army's medical priorities continued to play out in Britain's postwar policies on pensions and the rehabilitation of disabled ex-servicemen. It argues that the military prioritization of manpower conservation created a complex legacy for the RAMC as a branch of the armed services and for the provision of medical care under the auspices of the state.","PeriodicalId":359366,"journal":{"name":"Manpower and the Armies of the British Empire in the Two World Wars","volume":"77 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125160261","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It addresses how Britain and its dominions tackled the needs of veterans in the decade that followed the Second World War. It also explores how the manpower of the British Commonwealth grappled with the challenge of demobilization on a vast scale and reviews how the legacy of the First World War shaped the rehabilitation process that began in 1945. The chapter analyzes the thorny business of awarding pensions, measuring disability, and quantifying human suffering. It assesses what the British Commonwealth countries provided veterans in terms of compensation, benefits, and medical care.","PeriodicalId":359366,"journal":{"name":"Manpower and the Armies of the British Empire in the Two World Wars","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116706521","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It looks at the trope of Irish soldiers, which were considered as brave and valuable as shock troops but lacking in discipline and reliability. It also discusses traditions that created ideas that would inform service in the First World War: one was a Protestant military narrative of service, while the other is a story of service for foreign nations in an “Irish Brigade.” The chapter highlights the Irish involvement in the British Army, which formally manifested itself in the Irish infantry regiments. It refers to the infantry units that went into action in the First World War that were organizationally the product of the 1881 Childers Reforms.","PeriodicalId":359366,"journal":{"name":"Manpower and the Armies of the British Empire in the Two World Wars","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128377580","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
