Joining the 4th King's Own Regiment he in due course went to Hythe, took a First Class Certificate with credit, and became Musketry Instructor to his battalion on January 25th, 1879, exchanging these duties for those of Adjutant April 20th, 1880. Having got his company, August 30th, 1882, he determined to throw in his lot with the Egyptian Army, which he was appointed to on February 28th,1884, and remained with until he went to India in March, 1889, as Major- General, to take over the command of a first-class district.
