The Queen's Army Schoolmistresses were female military schoolteachers[1][2] who assisted the Royal Army Educational Corps and its predecessors in teaching the children of soldiers in British Army garrison schools.
[3][4] They were formed as the Army Schoolmistresses in 1848[5] and received the "Queen's" prefix in 1928.
Some were even taken as POWs by the Japanese.
