Kitchens at Military Camp. The kitchens at the Pnpakura mobilisation base are specially designed to save an immense amount el timewasting work tor cooks and orderlies. The battalion mess now in use, for instance, is built like the letter “H,” each arm containing two mes.s-room.s. with the kitchen in the centre. Service slides give access from the kitchen to all the four mess-rooms, which also have their own doors, so that one kitchen provides food for four messes, seating up to 700 men. without entailing the laborious carrying hitherto associated with camps where the kitchen was located in a separate building and where company messes were frequently under different roofs. Another advantage is that the food can be served hot.
