After sailing to England from South Africa, the South African Brigade assembles at Bordon Camp in Hampshire.

In his memoirs, Reggie records “I happened to be in England, in Hospital, when your Father came over with the South African Scottish; I went over + saw him at Richmond”. This must have been while Reggie was recuperating from wounds received in Zouave Wood on 31 May as part of the operation on Hooge Chateau.
