"_Action Competition_," under Sub-section Sergeants; points given for-- I. _Control_--(A) Drill; (B) Led Horses; (C) Fire Orders, etc. II. _Time_--taken from command "Action" to when led horses move back. III. _Gun Handling, Concealment and Shooting_ (won by "D" Sub-section, under Sergt. Pearse). "_Belt Filling by Limber Drivers_" (won by "C" Sub-section). "_Stripping, Adjustment, Minor Repairs and Immediate Action_" (1st, Lance-Corpl. Salter; 2nd, Lance-Corpl. Galway). INSPECTION BY THE "C.-IN-C.". In consequence of the increased number of cavalry which had arrived in the country, the 7th Mounted Brigade now formed part of a Division, instead of being an independent Brigade, as heretofore. This Division, which was commanded by Major-Gen. H.J.M. MacAndrew, C.B., D.S.O., was at first styled the "2nd Mounted Division," but, later on, it was altered to the "_5th Cavalry Division_," comprising the 13th, 14th (the old 7th Mounted), and 15th (Imperial Service), Cavalry Brigades. On June 27th, the Squadron paraded with the Brigade, in full marching order, for an inspection of the Division by the "C.-in-C.". They marched to the plain, north of Rishon-le-Zion, and were there duly inspected and "marched past," after which units returned to camp, independently. The "C.-in-C." expressed his high appreciation of the new Division. The next morning (June 28th 1918) a Divisional tactical scheme was carried out, and it was somewhat surprising to all ranks upon returning to camp, that orders were received _for the Brigade to move that night at 01.00_!

Before proceeding with a description of the Squadron's "trek" to the Jordan Valley, it might be desirable to enlighten the reader as to the actual position of affairs at the "front". [Illustration]
