SECRETARIAT
ONE of the objects of the Secretariat is to keep all
who are now serving, or have served, in the Corps,
abreast of Corps events and to advise on Corps domestic
affairs. It is hoped that as many as possible will take
the opportunity of visiting the Secretariat whenever they
are in the vicinity of Deepcut, to see for themselves how
such affairs are being handled.
