Indian Expeditionary Force in Aden

[Michael Dobbs]

This is not a query - simply posting something which I feel may be of interest to some of you.

Looking through my emails and trying to reduce the number in my 'in' box I came across this from early 2021!  It is a one-pager compiled by a non-member but a member of several Kent clubs and was circulated amonst his wide Kent contacts during our lockdown period.  I thought it worth publishing on our Forum - why I didn't do it back then I don't know!

Hello Mike.  Very interesting and worthy of wider circulation.  Something I'd be interested in publishing in a future Journal.

Possibly Winter or more likely the Spring 2023 edition.  An area we don't see much on.  Chris

I will make enquiries and seek permission from the person whose display it is.

Chris, Mike

A quick check of the indexes of The Dhow (Aden & Somaliland Study Group) reveals over 50 contributions, of varying length and depth, concerning Aden during WWI, many of which concern Aden Brigade.

There is nothing fundamentally flawed with this one-pager........ is it a sensible thought that the FPHS Journal includes this short item, and then as a follow-up I see if I can knock something more substantial together as a review article of what's been in The Dhow?
