3rd Light Horse Regiment, 8th Reinforcements



Alfred Cameron was a son of Alfred Cameron and Jessie Cameron (nee Forrest). He was born at Brinkley Station near Wellington, South Australia  on 17 May 1890. His father was a shearer and highly respected foundation member of the Australian Worker's Union.

Before the war, he worked as a labourer in the Meningie district. He enlisted at Oaklands on 15 January 1915. After seven months training, he  embarked on the Morea in  Adelaide on 26 August 1915.

He joined his unit on Gallipoli on 13 November 1915, just as winter set in, with cold biting winds and snow falling for days. Thirty freezing days and nights later, he embarked with the rest of the Regiment, returning to Egypt via Alexandria just before Christmas. The 3rd Light Horse Regiment, was allocated to the Western Frontier Force immediately after Christmas. The Western Frontier Force was deployed to counter incursions into the Nile Delta area by the Senussi tribes, and Alfred and the rest of the Regiment operated out of a camp near Wadi Natrun about 50 miles west of Cairo. Whilst there, Alfred came down with the mumps, and spent most of February 1916 in hospital.

In early March, not long after Alfred had returned from hospital, the Regiment entrained for Girga, about 300 miles south of Cairo. In early August 1916, the 3rd Light Horse Regiment defended bravely for two days against the attacking Turks during the Battle of Romani suffering 14 killed, 36 wounded and 4 missing. Nearly 100 horses were killed or missing. Alfred lost his horse along with everything on it. 

The Regiment, along with the rest of the 1st Light Horse Brigade, then followed up the retreating Turks, capturing Katia and pressing the Turkish rearguard. Returning to Romani in late 20 September, Alfred was awarded a week's field punishment after being caught lying down on sentry duty

In February 1917, Alfred was transferred to the 1st Machine Gun Squadron, which worked in direct support of the 1st Light Horse Brigade, which included the 3rd Light Horse Regiment. After several weeks training, Alfred returned to El-Arish where the Squadron made camp. After a period in and out of the front line near Rafa, during which the 1st Light Horse Brigade suffered more than 50 casualties and 100 horses killed or wounded, Alfred was court martialled in July 1917 for refusing to take horses to water when ordered. Initially sentenced to four months imprisonment with hard labour, this was commuted to two months which he served at No. 1 Detention Compound, Moascar, in Egypt.

Rejoining the Squadron at Rafa beach in early October 1917, he served until 28 October when he was admitted to hospital for a week, then again to hospital in early November with a corneal ulcer. After some training in Egypt, he didn't return to duty with the Squadron until May 1918, when the Brigade was in Jericho.  After a bout with sandfly fever in August 1918, Alfred rejoined the Squadron in late September 1918, at which point the entire Brigade had been brought to its knees, not by the Turks , but by malaria. In early October 1918, more than 500 men of the Brigade were evacuated with the disease. Alfred was back in hospital himself by late October, and didn't return to the Squadron until May 1919. He embarked for Australia later that month, and was discharged in Adelaide on 26 August 1919, four and a half years after he enlisted.

After the war, Alfred worked a number of jobs including shearing, horse breaking and fishing, and spent most of his life working on the Cameron family properties on the Coorong near Meningie.  Alfred Junior died in 1949 and was buried in the Meningie cemetery.

'At Pozieres France, on the morning of the 24/7/16 Lieut Campbell showed great courage dash and ability in the Bomb Fight which took place in O.G.1. Not only did he handle his machine guns with marked ability, but organised and led parties of bombers to the attack, he stood on the parapet and threw bombs into the German trench and although slightly wounded in two places he continued his work until the enemy were driven out.  It was largely due to Lieut Campbell's courage and energy that the trench was taken.'
Awarded Bart to Military Cross 31 October 1917
'For conspicuous gallantry and devotion to duty.  While his battalion was assembling for an attack it came under a very heavy enemy barrage.  With great coolness and determination and utter disregard of personal safety, he reorganised his own company and then assisted in reorganising the rest of the battalion.   Throughout the operations his work was admirable, and he was largely responsible for the success achieved.'

Awarded Military Cross
'For conspicuous gallantry on the 23rd day of August 1918 at Herleville Wood. This Officer led his Company into attack, and in addition to handling it with great skill set a splendid example to all ranks. Seeing that another Coy. had been wiped out he at once led his company forward and partially filled the gap, and when he reached the objective, though under terrific Machine gun fire, set out to try and locate the flank of the Division on our right, at the same time making provision for the guarding of our flank by Lewis Tuns.   Throughout the whole attack he worked with the utmost coolness and contempt of personal danger, setting his men an example which could not but impress them with admiration.
