Description

March Past: A Review of the First Fifty Years of Burnham Camp by John Story and J. Halket Millar. "Burnham Camp! It has been hated by thousands of men. It has been loved by thousands of men. And there are many", say the authors of this book, "who hated it and loved it almost at the same time." How many? Well, some 47,000 trained here in World War II; another 22,000 entered in 1950-8 for CMT; National Service added 8000 in 1961-72; and a further 1500 served in Korea, and 5000 in Malaya, Borneo and South Vietnam. The book may well be unique as the first full history of an Army camp, and some things could come as a surprise to those who think they know the place. The dust jacket has light to medium general wear but the book remains in a very tidy condition.
