With regard to your article about the Indian War Memorial (The Argus, June 20), I was surprised no mention was made of what I think was the largest of the India Other Ranks hospitals, which was housed in Brighton and Hove Grammar School in Old Shoreham Road.
This large building was, in fact, run by my father, Colonel James Rooth.
The hospital had its own football team, and was honoured by a visit from the Queen.
