In 1910, the Bristol University contingent of the Officers' Training Corps was formally raised in response to the recommendations of the committee formed by Lord Haldane. Some 1,000 men joined the Bristol UTC during the course of the First World War and, of these, some 105 were killed in action during that war. In 1925 it provided the Guard of honour for the visit of King George V and Queen Mary to Bristol to open buildings for the University of Bristol. It undertook its training collectively with other universities until 1928 when it arranged its own annual camp. During the Second World War twenty-one cadets volunteered for immediate service. Bristol UOTC is based at the Artillery Grounds in Whiteladies Road, Bristol.
