Thanks for that interesting little fact. One of my GGFs was in the H.A.C. and I remember being told that he was quite proud of the fact! He later went into the CAMC and then then flew a Spad in the RFC and ended the war as a "kriegie" Which is what kept him alive probably.
I seem to remember that there had to be an Act of Parliament to get the HAC on board.
