Regimental Depot
The regimental depot of a regiment is its home base for recruiting and training. It is also where soldiers and officers awaiting discharge or postings are based and where injured soldiers return to full fitness after discharge from hospital before returning to full duty. Normally, a variety of regimental stores will also be kept at the depot. The regimental depot is not the same as the regimental headquarters (where the main officers' mess and certain central functions are based), though in practice the two will often be co-located in the same place.

At that time Maidstone Barracks served as depot for the British Cavalry; while th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
