From the 'Guide to Sources Relating to Units of the Canadian Expeditionary Force' website -
Canadian Army Veterinary Corps
Each division in France had a mobile veterinary section and in addition, there was a veterinary hospitaland a veterinary evacuating station in that country to care for approximately 24,000 horses. 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.
