The Old Comrades' Association was formed by Veterans of the Machine Gun Corps after WW1 and still survives today. There are only six MGC Veterans known to us, and they are extremely precious. These wonderful men are aged 100 to 103. Most members nowadays are relatives or descendents of MGC men or those simply interested in the MGC specifically or WW1 in general. We welcome all.
Veterans also attend all functions free of charge.
They are our pride and joy and the most honoured guests. Interest in the Machine Gun Corps has increased considerably and membership has multiplied by 5 in three years, it is now over 330 and rising rapidly. If you join later in the year, you will receive back issues of the magazine, 'Emma Gee', and any other information members have received. Emma Gee' is published around March and October. It currently runs to 50-60 pages.
