Those who were at that time responsible for its organisation profited by the experience gained, and took steps to improve the organisation of the medical service as it then existed. The newly organised service entered the field at Mons, and at once was subjected to the most severe ordeal which the medical service of an army can undergo, namely, a rapid retreat necessitated by the overwhelming numerical superiority of the enemy.
