Non-Combatants in Khaki - A Defence of the Army Pay Corps
EDITORS COMMENTS
- this title grabs the reader's attention as they turn the page of this historic leaflet from 1919. The opening image showcases members of the Army Pay Corps, dressed in khaki uniforms, busily working at their desks, surrounded by piles of papers and ledgers. The scene conveys a sense of importance and dedication, as these non-combatants played a crucial role in the financial operations of the British Army during World War 1. The debate surrounding the use of non-combatants in the military during wartime was a contentious issue in the media and press. Critics argued that these individuals, who were not directly involved in combat, should not be entitled to wear the uniform and receive the same pay as combatants. However, this leaflet aims to answer these criticisms and shed light on the essential role of the Army Pay Corps. The text on the page explains that the Corps was responsible for managing the vast sums of money required to finance the war effort. The price of war was high, and the Corps ensured that every penny was accounted for and distributed appropriately. The leaflet argues that the Corps members were every bit as valuable to the war effort as combatants, and that their work behind the scenes was vital to the success of the military operations. The image and text work together to convey a sense of pride and importance for the role of the Army Pay Corps during World War 1. The use of the khaki uniform and the title "Non-Combatants in Khaki" reinforces the idea that these individuals were an integral part of the military machine, and that their contributions were just as valuable as those of combatants on the front lines. This leaflet serves as an important reminder of the often overlooked roles and contributions of non-combatants during times of war.
