There was as well a veterinary hospital at Shorncliffe but, most of the sick animals were evacuated to Imperial veterinary hospitals. Mobile veterinary sections provided first aid treatment for sick and wounded animals and the veterinary evacuating station served as a casualty clearing station through which the animals were evacuated to the base for treatment. ----No maker's marks found.
