I would appreiate any information on this Corps. I believe it was formed
in November 1914 from personnel of the divisional cyclist companies and of
men under training as cyclists to provide drafts for these companies.

Were these men, once trained, returned to their original regiments? Was
this unit disbanded, and if so when?

These questions relate to a photograph that I have of an ancestor and the
cap badge is clearly that of the Army Cyclists Corps but I have no further
information on him at this time.

I would appreciate any help.


best wishes to all
