The Veterinary Hospital at Aldershot was still in continuous use at
the end of the First World War and became part of the Royal visiting
circuit. The Veterinary Corps were used to demonstrate to visiting
royalty and dignitaries the excellent qualities to be found in the
British Army. In
1933, King Feisal of Iraq - a close friend to Lawrence of Arabia
- visited the facilities, earlier in the same year, the Emir of
Katsina, Muhammadu Dikko, also paid a state visit to Britain and
toured the Veterinary Hospital at Aldershot.
