Other Divisions wereexpected to come South, but for a short time the 50th occupied the uniqueposition of being the only British troops in the Sixth French Army. In the camp at Arcis-le-Ponsart were all the battalions of the 151stBrigade, and the ceremony of Brigade guard mounting was revived. Thistook place daily in the centre of the village with the massed buglers andbands. On the occasion of a visit of the French Army Commander toDivisional Headquarters, a guard was provided at very short not...ice by theBattalion, and was complimented on its smart appearance and bearing. Itmay be mentioned that the bugler of this guard carried the silver buglepresented to the Battalion in 1861 by the ladies of Coundon. It was generally understood that the tour on this sector, which was oneof the quietest in the line, was to be a period of rest and trainingprior to a return to the fighting further north. Accordingly, the days atArcis were devoted to training, mostly in field work. The men whosetraining was not up to standard, including a certain number who hadrecently been transferred from the Inland Water Transport section of theRoyal Engineers, were detached for separate instruction, and eventuallywent to form a Divisional School.
