Introduction: Royal Army Medical Corps

The Royal Army Medical Corps (RAMC) provides medical services to all Miltary personnel and their families. The military medical services are now a tri-service body, with the hospital facilities of Army, Royal Air Force and Royal Navy combined. The RAMC, the Royal Army Veterinary Corps, the Royal Army Dental Corps and Queen Alexandra's Royal Army Nursing Corps are the components of the Army Medical Services. The main RAMC hospital for operational casualties is the Royal Centre for Defence Medicine at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham. Less sever treatment centers include the Queen Alexandra Hospital in Portsmouth, Derriford Hospital in Plymouth, Friarage Hospital in Northallerton and Frimley Park Hospital in Frimley where they do not treat operational casualties.

Royal Army Medical Corps Tactical Flag

The Royal Army Medical Corps Tactical Flag is a basic horizontal tricolour in a red-navy blue-gold pattern. It differs from the Royal Army Medical Corps HQ or Camp Flag only from the lack of the Royal Army Medical Corps Badge center upon it.

Queen Alexandra's Royal Army Nursing Corps (QARANC), popularly called the QAs, is the nursing branch of the British Army and part of the Army Medical Services. The QAs were named after Queen Alexandra, the wife of King and Emperor Edward VII. She worked at funding and buying a river launch, later named the Alexandra, to ferry the wounded during the Sudan campaign, and later to outfit the hospital ship The Princess of Wales to bring back wounded from the Boer War. Alexandra was highly popular with the British public and press (unlike her husband and mother-in-law) and is responsible for founding of the then Imperial Military Nursing Service (IMNS). The IMNS provided nursing to British Army soldiers wherever they were stationed in the world. Although the Royal Army Nursing Corps was formed in 1902, it traces its origins back through the IMNS to Florence Nightingale's pioneering nursing work during the Crimean War.

Queen Alexandra's Royal Army Nursing Corps Tactical Flag

The only difference between Queen Alexandra's Royal Army Nursing Corps HQ Flag and the tactical flag is it is not defaced with the QARANC Badge. This is the normal differance between HQ Camp flags and their tactical variants.
