Hi, Jim, to be honest this is the first time I've ever heard of these units. You've taught me something today. If you think they are notable, by all means they should be on the list. Cheers, AustralianRupert (talk) 06:54, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

Imperial Camel Corps

The Australian War Memorial has four battalions listed. 2nd British 1st and 3rd Australian and the 4th Australian and New Zealand troops. The links is here [1]. As you can see there is very little detail, so I don't think its worth doing four articles, unless you have another source. I realise that it may not be at the top of your to do list, but something to consider. Jim Sweeney (talk) 15:51, 9 December 2011 (UTC)

Hi, Jim, yes I agree. Probably best to discuss all the battalions within the ICC article. Cheers, AustralianRupert (talk) 21:03, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
