Consists of a letter from Thomas Baker Brown to his father from a training camp in York. He describes night manoeuvres, a Bathing Parade to York Baths and a fellow soldier collapsing in the street and having to be operated on. He also tells his father that he could not see the target during aiming exercises and may have too poor eyesight to be a fully trained soldier.
