Excerpt from Service and Sport in the Sudan: A Record of Administration in the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan; With Some Intervals of Sport and Travel Almost every officer who looks beyond the somewhat cramped fields of regimental soldiering - the baby farming cum novel over ante room fire of Lord Esher - hopes some time or other to join the Egyptian Army. It is considered the plum of extra-regimental employments abroad. Strange, however, it is that, in spite of the fact that one or more men from almost every regiment or corps has belonged to the ea. At one time or another, very little is known about it. This is explained in several ways. The man who once has been in positions of considerable trust and responsibility more often than not does not rejoin his regiment. If he does rejoin he probably finds that local scandal holds a more favoured position than Imperial questions. Above all, there will be a certain jealousy among those who have never aspired to any thing but regimental life, and a suspicion that the ex-bimbashi or bey is drawing on his imagination for experiences.
