L.C. Brothers Imperial Camel Corps E.E.F. 1918), 1914/15 Star (3333 SJT.L.C.Brothers,1st.Co.OF.Lond.Y.), British War and Victory Medals (Liet.L.C.Brothers), mounted for wearing, together with related dress miniatures, graduated bronze camel bell, with shell decorated hessien hanger, and a North African copper cooking pot with cover. London Gazette - 16 September 1918 T./2nd Lt. Leonard Charles Brothers, Gen. List and I.C.C. For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty. He organised the defence under a hot enfilade fire with the greatest ability, and when the majority of the men of his forward left-hand gun had been put out of action, he took charge of the gun himself and retained the position all day.` London Gazette, 16 September, 1918. The 5th Camel Company was a British manned Company drawn from the 53rd Territorial Infantry Division. On 16 December 1916 the 5th Camel Company was absorbed into the 2nd Camel Battalion, under Colonel Robert Buxton. After the breakup of the Imperial Camel Corps on 25 July 1918, the 5th Camel Company remained as a camel formation giving assistance in the Hejaz campaign. T. E. Lawrence and Colonel Buxton`s 2nd Camel Battalion, `In August 1918, via the suggestion of his friend Colonel Dawnay, Lawrence got clearence to use two companies of the Imperial Camel Corps, under Buxton, for a renewed initiative, `Dawnay and i sat down with a map and measured that Buxton should march from the Canal to Akaba, thence by Rumm, to carry Mudowwara by night-attack, thence by Bair to destroy the bridge and tunnel near Amman, and back to Palestine on August thirteenth`, Lawrences first mention of Buxton and the Imperial Camel Corps, such were the achievements of this irregular force over the following weeks- achievements in which Lawrence shared, for he delighted in riding alongside them, that he would dedicate an entire chapter in Revolt in the Desert to their story. In late July 1918, Lawrence visited Buxton and his men for the first time, `Accordingly i went down to Akaba, where Buxton let me explain to each company their march, and the impatient nature of the Allies whom they, unasked, had come to help, begging them to turn the other cheek if their was a row, partly because they were better educated than the Arabs, and therefore less prejudiced, partly because they were very few. After such solemnities came the ride up the oppressive gorge of Itm, under the red cliffs of Nejed and over the breast-like curves of Imran, that slow preparation for Rumms greatness, till we passed through the gap before the rock of Khunail, and into the inner shrine of the springs, with its worship compelling coolness. There the landscape refused to be accessory, but took the skies, and we chattering humans became dust at its feet. It was shortly after this visit, that Colonel Buxton, participated in the reconnaissance from Rumm towards Mudowwara in Arab cloaks, and of the subsequent attack on Mudowwara, Lawrence later wrote `Next morning we heard by aeroplane how Buxtons forces had fared. They decided to assualt it before dawn mainly by means of bombers, in three parties, one to enter the station, the other two for the main redoubts. Accordingly before midnight white tapes were laid as guides to the zero point. The opening had been timed for a quarter to four, but the way proved difficult to find, so that daylight was almost upon them, before things began against the Southern redoubt. after a number of bombs had burst in and about them, the men rushed up and took it easily, to find that the station party had achieved their end a moment before. These alarms roused the middle redoubt, but only for defeat. Its men surrendered twenty minutes later. The northern redoubt, which had a gun, seemed better-hearted and splashed its shot freely into the station yard, and at our troops. Buxton, under cover of the Southern redoubt directed the fire of Brodies guns which, with their usual deliberate accuracy, sent in shell after shell. Siddons came over in his machines and bombed it, while the Camel Corps from North and East and West subjected the breastworks to severe Lewis gun-fire. At seven in the morning, the last of the enemy surrendered quietly. We had lost four killed and ten wounded. The Turks lost twenty-one killed, and one hundred and fifty prisoners, with two field-guns and three machine-guns. Buxton at once set the Turks to getting steam on the pumping engine, so that he could water his camels, while men blew in the wells, and smashed the engine-pumps, with two thousand yards of rail. At dusk, charges at the foot of the water-tower spattered it in single stones across the plan. Buxton, a moment later called `Walk-march!`, to his men, and the three hundred camels, rising like one and roaring like the day of judgement, started off to Jefer. Thence we had news of them. They rested a day, revictualled, and marched for Bair where Joyce and myself had agreed to join them. And so it was, Lawrence rejoining the men of the Camp Corps for several days, a period in which he would undoubtedly have sought out information about the attack on Mudowwara - most likely, too, from one of the heroes of the raid. It was also during this visit to the Camel Corps that Lawrence observed with pride how well the men were progressing, largely thanks to Buxton having made some useful changes. Consequently, our Imperial camel Corps had become rapid, elastic, enduring, silent; except when they mounted by numbers, for then the three hundred camels would roar in concert, giving out a wave of sound audible miles across the night. Each march saw them more workmanlike, more at home on their animals, tougher, leaner, faster. Encouraged by the victory at Mudowwara, Lawrence guided the Camel Corps towards their next target, the railway viaduct at Kissir, South of Amman, a jouney entailing another 120 mile journey behind enemy lines, a daring enterprise best summed up by Buxton `It is not unlike an attempt on the part of the Huns to blow up Waterloo Bridge, as it is many miles at the back of their lines and within five miles of their Army headquarters. But with the promise of Arab support, Lawrence`s leadership and an element of surprise, the matter should not be difficult.` Battle of Amman (1918) - The first British raid on Amman began on 21st March. The Australian 1st and 7th Light Horse Brigades attacked, supported by the Camel Brigade. The raiders were to destroy two key structures in the railroad line, a viaduct and a tunnel, and then retreat back to the Jordan River. Over a twelve day period, British forces advanced toward Amman but were unable to complete the mission because of unfamiliar terrain, torrential downpours, and fierce resistance from Turkish troops.
