No. 9 Casualty Clearing Station    No.9 Casualty Clearing Station opened at St Omer in December 1914 and made a number of moves before the Armistice. The wounded, having already had their wounds dressed at a Dressing Station would be brought to the CCS behind the lines, which also dealt with the sick referred to them by the Medical Officer of the man's battalion. The CCS was equipped with an operating theatre and wards. Those who needed further treatment would be transferred to one of the hospitals, though some were able to return to their unit after a stay at the CCS. 11th Dec 1914 CO Arrives 12th Dec 1914 Inspection 14th Dec 1914 Inspection 15th Dec 1914 Posting 16th Dec 1914 Mobilisation 21st Dec 1914 Orders 22nd Dec 1914 On the Move 23rd Dec 1914 On the Move 24th Dec 1914 Gifts and Clothing Drawn 25th Dec 1914 Christmas Gifts 26th Dec 1914 Orders 27th Dec 1914 On the Move 28th Dec 1914 Arrivals 29th Dec 1914 Arrangements Made 30th Dec 1914 Arrangements Made 31st Dec 1914 Additional Ward 15th Jan 1915 Facilities If you can provide any additional information, please add it here.
