Alexander Sandison Letters:

Sandison is apparently worried about where John will be sent to fight. He does not believe that Hamiltons soldiers will be sent abroad.

(This is possibly a reference to Sir Ian Hamilton (1853-1947). Once chief of staff to Lord Kitchener during the South African War, he began the First World War as commander of the Central Force, responsible for home defence. An otherwise outstanding military career was ruined by defeat in the Dardanelles (1915) and later, Gallipoli.)
