1917
Every eligible pupil was now in the Corps. Lt. Nicholas Hammond stands at the front of the main body with the Warden’s House and dining Hall in the background. The
white band around some of the Cadets’ caps show that these individuals have passed ‘Certificate A’ ,a military proficiency exam recognised by the War Office. It was an
unpretentious band of twelve bugles, four drums and cymbals under the instruction of the Band Master the 4th Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire Light Infantry.
