Whilst engaged in company training at Camberley (see 18th
January) Priestley experienced what he described as, “The hardest work I have
done for some time ... We were marched out at night and had to dig trenches,
within a certain time, in the darkness”.
As a result of a medical examination, it was
recommended that one of Tunstill’s original recruits, Robert Singleton (see 14th September 1914), be
discharged from the Army; the grounds were stated as his having “flat feet and cannot
march far”.
