Therese Suzanne Adams
British Army Forage Corps
My mother, Therese (Terry) Suzanne Adams, was a member of the Forage Corps which was a military organisation under the direction of the Army Service Corps. It existed to provide the forage needed by the horses behind the Western Front. My mother served with this from 1916 until the Corps was disbanded in 1920. At its greatest it numbered some 6000 members.
The records of the Corps do not seem to exist nowadays. Enquiries some years ago of the National Archive, The Royal Logistics Corps, the Army Museum and the Imperial War Museum disclosed very little.
