REGULATIONS FOR THE OFFICERS TRAINING CORPS. 1912. ~g^^^ 3008 I.— General Principles. 1. The primary object of the Officers Training Corps is to Object, provide students at schools and universities with a standardized measure of elementary military training, with a vie* to their eventually applying for commissions in the Special Beserve of Officers, or the Territorial Force. It should, therefore, be under- stood that the aim of every university and school which provides a contingent for the Officers Training Corps must be to provide as many officers for the Special Reserve of Officers and the Territorial Force as possible. The degree to which this result is attained will be the main consideration in deciding whether the Officers Training Corps as a whole, or any individual contingent which forms part of it, are respectively giving to the State an adequate return for the expenditure incurred in their administration and training. 2. Gentlemen who, on being recommended for commissions in Recogni- the Special Reserve of Offipersorthe Territorial Force, can produce tion of certificates of proficiency obtained in the Officers Training Corps, Proficiency, will be exempted from a portion of the probationary training, or from certain examinations, required from other officers. By means of the facilities thus offered to men who wish to serve their country with the least possible interference with their civil career, it is hoped that the supply of officers may be increased, and that all arms and services may not only be complete in officers on mobilization, but also have a surplus in the junior commissioned ranks in order to make good the losses which will occur in war. The value of the above-mentioned certificates of proficiency lies in their being the guarantee of from two to four years' consecutive training of a nature calculated to produce good officers. Condition of eligi- bility to join. Schools in receipt of a Parlia- mentary giant. II.- Constitution. 3. The Officers Training Corps consists of contingents of those universities and schools whose offer has been accepted by the Army Council. . . ' 4. To be eligible for inclusion in the Officers Training Corps a university or school contingent must show an enrolled strength of not lees tha,n 30 cadets, and must have at least one com- missioned officer per company. A university desiring to furnish a contingent for the Officers Training Corps must possess a committee of military education officially recognized by the university authorities, aud certain officers of the contingent must be ex-officio members of this committee. A university or school wishing to furnish a contingent should apply to the Army Council for permission to join the Officers Training Corps (for Application Form see Appendix I) ; but no contingent will be admitted unless it fulfils the above-mentioned qualifications, accepts the regulations herein laid down, and is in the opinion of the Army Council capable of efficiently carrying out the work prescribed. The Army Council may dispense with the membership of any university or school contingent, should they consider that its retention as a part of the Officers Training Corps is not desirable in view of the object with which that corps is established. 5. Financial assistance will in no case be given to any school in receipt of a Parliamentary grant in respect of the military training of any boy who has not attained the age of 16 years. The term " financial assistance " includes the issue of arms and ammunition ; but schools already in receipt of such assistance may retain their rifles and equipment, and continue to receive issues of ammunition. Control. Relations with local military units. III.— Control. 6. For purposes of organization and control the Officers Training Corps, except Irish contingents which are under the General Officer Commanding-in-Chief in Ireland, is directly under the War Office. The training is under the direction of the Chief of the Imperial General Staff. University and school authorities will retain their ordinary powers of supervision and discipline. 7. The relations between an Officers Training Corps contingent and a. local unit of the Regular Forces, Special Reserve or Territorial Force, will be a matter for adjustment by their resp«c- tive commanding officers, who will correspond direct. Inasmuch as the Officers Training Corps is intended to become the principal source from which officers for the Special Reserve and the Territorial Force will be drawn, it will be to the mutual advantage of each that their relations be as close as is consistent with the 9 fact that each unit draws its income through a different channel, and that no County Association can be called on to incur any expense in respect of the Officers Training Corps. It is intended that units of the Officers Training Corps should, when possible, obtain facilities from local units as regards technical instruction, the loan of material, and the use of rifle ranges and training grounds. If required, payment will be made out of the Officers Training Corps funds to the County Association concerned, for the hire or use of any property of the Association. IV.— Organization. 8. The Officers Training Corps is organized in two divisions : — General (i) Senior Division, composed of university contingents ; tion_ (ii) Junior Division, composed of school contingents. A university contingent may be made up of one or more units, according as one or more arms or departments of the service are represented. In cases where a university comprises practically autonomous colleges, situated at a distance from each other, a separate unit may be formed in each of the different colleges j but each such unit will be a part of the university contingent. School contingents will comprise infantry or engineers only. 9. Each unit will be organized as a battalion, battery, squadron. Internal or field ambulance, or in companies (one or more), sections, or organiza- troops. As regards the details of internal organization, the general ' rules given below will be followed. If it is desired to raise the establishments of units without adding to the number of companies, &c., or to increase the number of companies, &c., in a contingent, sanction must be obtained from the War Office. (a) Cavalry : — Establish- (1 ) The strength of a troop will not exceed 30 cadets ; units. (2) Units with a total strength of from 31 to 60 cadets will be organized as two troops ; (3) Units with a strength of 61 to 90 cadets will be organized as a squadron of three troops ; (4) Units with a strength of from 91 to 120 cadets will be organized as a squadron of four troops. (6) Meld and Heavy Artillery : — (1) Units having a total strength not exceeding 60 cadets will be organized as a section ; (2) Units having a strength of from 61 to 120 cadets will be organized as a four-gun battery ; (3) Units having a strength of over 120 cadets will be organized as a six-gun battery, except in the case of Heavy Artillery, which will always be organized as in (1) or (2). 10 (c) Engineers, Infantry, and Army Service Corps :— (!) The strength of a company will not exceed 100 cadets ; (2) Should the strength of a unit exceed 100 cadets, two or more companies, of not less than 50 cadets each, will be formed ; (3) Should the strength of an infantry unit exceed 400 of all ranks, it will be organized as a battalion of 6 or more companies. (d) Medical : — (1) Units with a strength not exceeding 90 cadets will he organized as a section of a field ambulance. (2) If the total strength exceeds 90, a second section will, as a rule, be formed. (e) Veterinary : — A unit with a strength not exceeding 100 cadets will he organized in four sections Army Veterinary Corps. (/) In all units, the cyclists, signallers, buglers, and band-cadets will be included in the strength of companies, and not organized as separate units. The establishment of officers, non-commissioned officers, drummers, &c., for the above units is given in Appendix II. v.— Conditions of Service. 1. Officers. General Conditions. Four 10.

Promotion. 18. Promotion will, as a rule, be governed by the establishment of contingents, according to seniority in the contingent. AH applications for promotion should be forwarded to the General Officer Commanding-in-Chief for submission to the Army Council. 19. In the case of officers who hold commissions on the unattached list of the Territorial Force, promotion will be " substantive " or "provisional" according to whether the officer has, or has not, qualified for promotion to higher rank as laid down in Territorial Force Regulations, para. 281. No provisional or substantive pro- motion will be given until an officer has performed the initial course of instruction required under Territorial Force Eegulations, paras. 315 and 374. Officers granted provisional promotion must qualify for their substantive rank within 12 months of the date of gazette. The date of substantive rank will be that of the day on which an officer completes the necessary qualification. Applications to attend examinations for promotion should be made to the General Officer Commanding-in-Chief. Officers of the Officers Training Corps are not eligible to attend the examinations for certificates of proficiency as laid down in Section VIII of these Regulations, except as stated in para. 71. 20. In the case of officers seconded for service with the Officers Training Corps, promotion to local rank only may be given. This local rank does not carry seniority outside the Officers Training Corps, and the officer's seniority in the unit of the Special Reserve or Territorial Force to which he belongs will not be affected. 21. Officers temporarily attached may be promoted as in para. 20. Retirement or Resignation. 22. An officer of the class referred to in para. 10 (1), who finds it necessary to terminate his service with a contingent by reason of his leaving the university or school concerned, should notify the fact through his Commanding Officer to the General Officer Commanding-in-Chief for transmission to the Aimy Council, stating in his communication whether he wishes : — (1) To be transferred to another contingent. (2) To remain on the unattached list. (3) To resign his commission. Permission to remain on the unattached list will only be given on the understanding that the officer intends to serve with another contingent or with a unit of the Territorial Force, as soon as an opportunity occurs, and that the General Officer Commanding- in-Chief recommends that such permission be granted. The period 13 (which shall not reckon towards the three years referred to in paras. 604 and 607, Territorial Force EeguJations) during which the name of such an officer may be retained on the unattached list will be decided by the Army Council, but in no case will it exceed 5 years. Officers allowed to remain on the unattached list are not eligible for promotion to higher rank, or to attend courses of instruction, regimental tours, &c., except at their own expense. The resignation by an officer of his commission will be Resigna- forwarded to the General Officer Commanding-in-Chief, for sub- tion. mission to the Army Council, accompanied by the certificate referred to in para. 119, Territorial Force Regulations. 2. Cadets. 23. Cadets of the Officers Training Corps will not have any Conditiona legal liability to service, and will not be required to take the oath of service, of allegiance. 24. Cadets of the Senior Division will be enrolled to serve University under a contract to be drawn up by each university to suit its own cadets, conditions. Membership need not be confined to members of a university, but may be open, at the discretion of the university authorities and officers commanding units, and under the terms of the contract mentioned above, to gentlemen who, though not members of the university, are desirous of gaining the certificates of proficiency obtainable in the Officers Training Corps, and to students, who, on passing out of residence, are desirous of remaining in the contingent in order to obtain these certificates, subject to the approval of the Military Committee. 25. The contract will include rules for admission, and will set Oonfract. forth the period for which cadets will be held to serve, the discipline to which they will be subject, the penalties incurred for non-efficiency, and any other conditions which may be necessary to safeguard the interests of the contingent, and to ensure an economical administration of the government grants. The pro- posed form of contract should conform to the principles laid down in these regulations, and will be submitted to the Army Council for approval before adoption. 26. No boy under 13 years of age will be enrolled in the Junior School Division ; otherwise the conditions for enrolment, service, and cadets, dismissal of School cadets will be in the hands of headmasters and school authorities, within the limits of these regulations. Cadets who have left the school may, with the approval of the head- master, be retained in the contingent, on the understanding that such cadets are continuing their service for the sole purpose of obtaining Certificate A. In no case can they remain after attaining the age of 20. 27.

In the Junior Division cadets may, with the approval of headmasters, be appointed " cadet officers " in the proportion of 1 cadet officer to every 30 cadets. Cadet officers will wear officers' uniform without any badges of rank ; they will not hold com- missions, and will not be recognized as officers, or exercise any power of command as such, outside their own units. 3, Adjutants, Serjeant-Instructors, and Bandsmen. 30. Eegular officers will be appointed as adjutants to contin- gents, or groups of contingents, as may be required. They will be attached to the General Staff at Headquarters. The provisions of para. 726, King's Regulations, will not apply to them. , Adjutants of contingents will not merely be required to assist in the administration of the contingent ; they must be fully com- petent to undertake the duties of instructor and lecturer in the theory and practice of the subjects which are included in the military education of cadets ; and as e:!5-officio members of the Military Committees of Universities, theiy must be qualified to advise the Committee on all matters of military education and training. Appointments will be made by the War Office from the approved list of candidates. Officers desiring that their names may be noted on this list will submit their applications through the usual channel. In view of the extreme importance of their position, it is desirable that commanding officers should forward the nameg of those officers only whom they consider fully qualified to undertake the duties and likely to acquire a strong influence over the cadets of the contingent. The confidential reports on adjutants will be made by the Director of Military Training. 31. Adjutants will not be appointed tocontingents of the Junior Division, but there is no objection to school authorities appointing a retired regular officer as acting adjutant, paid out of private funds. The name of the selected officer should be submitted for the approval of the Army Council. If approved he will be gazetted with the rank of captain or lieutenant in the Territorial Force. In exceptional circumstances, to be decided by the Army Council, an officer of the Regular Forces may be appointed, subject to the condition that he receives no pay from Army funds, 32. Non-commissioned officers of the regular forces will be appointed to the establishment of contingents of the Senior Division in the following scale : — 15 (a) For Cavalry, and Field or Heavy Artillery units : — To each squadron or battery .... 1 instructor (6) For Engineer, Infantry, Army Service Corps, and Medical units : — From 1 to 2 companies, or sections of a field ambulance 1 instructor From 3 to 5 companies 2 instructors and so on at the rate of 1 instructor per 3 companies, or sections of a field ambulance, (c) For one Veterinary unit of four sections 1 instructor No instructor will be attached to a unit, or part of a unit, of the Senior Division, whose strength is less than 30 cadets, nor to a unit of the Junior Division in any case. 33. The names of non-commissioned oflScers whose services Applioa- Officers Commanding university contingents desire to obtain as tioi for instructoi's will be forwarded to the War Office, where the appoint- i^^struo- ment, if thought desirable, will be carried out. "'^^' 34. In cases where a contingent of the Senior Division has a Additional unit, or part of a unit, at such a distance from headquarters that instruc- an additional instructor is considered necessary, application may be ^'^' made by the commanding officer to the War Office ; each case will be considered on its merits. 35. The qualifications for appointment for instructors will be Qualifica- as laid down for the dififerent arms and services of the Territorial tions for Force in King's Regulations. Any non-commissioned officer not S'PPo™*- below the permanent rank of serjeant, who is otherwise qualified ^^^ ' and suitable, may be considered eligible for appointment. Non- commissioned officers above the rank of serjeant will only be appointed in contingents entitled to more than one instructor ; and more than two non- commissioned officers above the rank of serjeant will only be appointed in exceptional circumstances. 86. Applications to extend the service of an instructor beyond Extension 21 years will be made in accordance with para. 270, King's Regula- of service." tions. 37.

Instructors are not officially attached to contingents of the Seljeant- Junior Division, but a list of ex-non-commissioned officers specially instruc- recommended is kept at the War Office, and names will be 'o""^.- forwarded on application being made by Officers Commanding ^™1°J" contingents. Serjeant-instructors of the Junior Division may, with the 16 Bands, Bandsmen. Band cadets. Attend- ance at parades. Begi- mental exercises. Camp training. Courses of instruction. consent of the Officer Commanding unit concerned, attend a course at the Small Arms Factory, Enfield Lock, provided that no expense to the public is incurred. 40. If it is desired to raise a new band, recruited otherwise than from cadets, the sanction of the Army Council must be obtained. 41. Bandsmen, who are not cadets, will serve under a contract drawn up by the university or school authorities ; they will be attached to the establishment of the contingent, but cannot qualify for the Territorial Force efficiency medal or for any efficiency grant, or earn anything from Army funds as members of the Officers Training Corps. 42. Cadets may be trained and employed as bandsmen ; but if the efficiency grant is claimed in respect of band cadets, they must have satisfied the conditions of efficiency apart from their work as bandsmen. VI.— Training. Officers. 43. Inasmuch as the training of cadets is for the greater part of the year in the hands of the officers of each contingent, it is desirable that officers should attend all drills at which cadets of their squadron, company, &c., are present, unless excused by the Officer Commanding the contingent. Commanding officers of contingents will certify in the annual inspection report that all officers on the establishment of the contingent have attended the number of drills laid down for Territorial Force •' officers of the same branch of the service in Territorial Force Eegulations, Appendix 6. 44. Eegimental exercises will be organized by the General Staff at the War Office, with the assistance of such officers of the Officers Training Corps as may reside in the neighbourhood of the place where the tour is held. The duties of the directing stafi" will, when required, be carried out by regular officers detailed by General Officers Command ing-in-CMef. 45. All officers of contingents of the Senior Division should, if possible, be jiresent at the annual camp of their contingent. In the Junior Division, should the number of officers in a contingent, -m exceed one to every thirty cadets attending camp, leave may be' granted at the discretion of the Officer Commanding. Officers excused from attending the annual camp with their contingent i, should endeavour either to perform training by being attached to a unit of the Regular Forces, Special Reserve, oi- the Territorial Force, or to attend a course of instruction as laid down in para. 382, Territorial Force Regulations. Applications for officers to attend a course of instruction will be submitted to the General Officer Commanding-in-Chief of the command, in accordance with para. 377, Territorial Force Regula- tions, on Army Form E 555 ; for School of Musketry, Army Form B 54. 17 Cadets. 46. The object of all training in the OflBcers Training Corps Object of is to bring the largest possible number of cadets up to the training. standard of proficiency indicated by the syllabus laid down for the examinations for Certificates A and B. (See Appendix III.) 47. The training of the Officers Training Corps generally is Respouei- under the direction of the Chief of the Imperial General Staff, bility. Each unit will be trained by its own officers. 48. In contingents of the Senior Division, the adjutant, as Assistance representative of the General Staff, will supervise the training of from the contingent. He will be assisted for a few weeks prior to each ''^"lar of the half-yearly examinations for certificates of proficiency (see gg^g^^ ' Section VIII), by regular officers attached to the contingent. Division. Officers Commanding contingents in England, Scotland, and Wales will apply to the War Office for the officers they require. Officers Commanding contingents in Ireland will apply to the General Officer Commanding-in-Chief the Forces in Ireland. 49.

Army Eorms E 556 and 557, giving the names of candidates desirous of entering for the examination, who are eligible under the conditions laid down in paras. 67—73, should reach the War Office not later than six weeks before the day fixed for examination. Contingents which have no candidates should submit " nil " returns. The lists of candidates of all contingents having been received they are arranged in order of contingents alphabetically and index numbers are allotted. Note. — Until all returns have been received index numbers cannot be allotted, it is important therefore that returns should be submitted as directed. In order to provide for cadets whose names are not included in the above lists, a: few spare index numbers are allotted to each contingent. These are entered in column 1 of Ai-my Forms E 556 or E 567, and the superintending officers may allot them to candidates on the day of examination, subject to the condition that such candidates are eligible to attend. If all names submitted are subsequently withdrawn the fact should be notified to the War Office. 52 7.

The following instructions apply to the oral portion of the examina- tion, which will be carried out during the months of March and November in each year ; — Senior Division. (ffi) In all cases a ' board will assemble at the university concerned, or other convenient place ; it will consist of two regular officers, who will be granted 10s. a day additional pay; and in addition, ex officio, the adjutant of the contingent. (6) The officers attached under para. 48 of these regulations at the various universities should, whenever possible, be employed as members of the Board, in which case they would not draw the lOe. ' additional pay, mentioned in the preceding paragraph. (c) Commanding officers of contingents should apply direct to the brigadier-general or colonel of the genei"al staff of their command, for the officers of the board, and for the men required as drill Jiarties. They should mention the number of cadets to be examined. Drill parties should not eiceed 60 in number. Subject to this limitation, however, the actual strength is left to the discretion of the Genei'al Officer Oommanding-in-Ohief of the conrmand concerned. (d) Oare must be taken that iipplioatiou is only made when there are sufficient candidates to be examined. This is particularly important at places to which troops have to be brought from a distance. In tke case of infantry, it is considered that the maximum number that can be examined in one day by one board is 20. Troops should not, as a rule, be asked for unless there are ten cadets to be examined. When making this application as long notice as possible should be given to the staff of the Command. 53 (e) Where the number of candidates to be examined is very small, application may be made to the War Office with a view to holding the examination in camp. The numbers to be examined in camp will be kept as low as possible. Junior Division. (y) The Oral Examination for the Junior Division will be carried out by a regular officer, assisted by the officers of the contingent ; the former will draw 10s. a day extra duty pay. (^) Commanding officers of contingents should apply direct to the brigadier-general or colonel of the general staff of their Command for the services of the x-egular officer referred to at (_/). This application should meiltion the dates and place which are most convenient for the contingent, and the number of cadets to be examined. As long notice as possible should be given. In order that candidates attending the ensuing examinations for Woolwich and Sandhurst may obtain the benefit of the 200 added marks, the result of the oral part must reach the War Office by 31st March or 30th November respectively. (A) The contingent should provide the necessary diill parties for the examination ; the attendance of cadets for this purpose will count as drills in the case of cadets not linder examination. (s) The tactical (6) part of the examination should be carried out in the open, and if possible, on broken ground. (Jc) In the case of contingents where the number of cadets for examina- tion dui-ing the year is large, the following procedm-e will be allowed as an alternative to the above, leave being obtained from the War Office in each case : — The visiting officer (see Appendix IV of these Eegulations) may conduct oral examinations during liis visits, This officer will draw extra duty pay as follows : — For iive or less cadets examined ... 5s. a day. For more than five 10s. a day. Note. — General Staff Officers on cons&lldated pay are not eligible to draw the extra duty pay, neither can it be drawn con- currently with additional pay by an Mjutant of a contingent of the Senior Division. Oral examinations under this regulation (Jc) held between December 1st and March 31st will count as part of the March examination, those held between April 1st and November 30th as part of the November examination. A cadet Who fails at any such examination may not be re-ejcamined in the same period. The names of the cadets, in alphabetical order, and the marks allotted will be recojded on Army Form E 647 for Certificate A, and E 648 for Certificate B, which will be prepared in duplicate ; one copy will be handed to the officer commanding the con- tingent, and the other copy forwarded to the War Office on the day following the examination. 64 APPENDIX IV.
