We had been waiting, not a little anxious, when the sergeant cried out "Recruit Armstrong, pass at once into the inspection-room." On hearing my name, I ran into the room. The doctor looked at me for a moment, and then said "Stand on one leg." I did so. "Now on the other. Bend over until you touch the ground."
"Now then, young 'uns, strip; get into that bath; scrub and clean yourselves," cried the sergeant; "for it's time that you were at the inspection-room." Having done as we were ordered, we marched off to the inspection-room, where we waited till the doctor arrived, who was to say whether or not we had bodily health and strength to serve Her Majesty.
When the customs formalities are over they are allowed to find the refreshment-room, and there console themselves with weak tea in tumblers until such time as they are released. The train on this occasion was a full one, and the great inspection-room, with its bare walls and glaring lights, crammed to overflowing. The majority of the travellers seemed, as usual, to be Germans.
