The Imperial Camel Corps Brigade (ICCB) was raised by the British Empire in December 1916 during the First World War for service in the Middle East. The unit eventually grew to a brigade of four battalions, one battalion each from Great Britain and New Zealand and two battalions from Australia. Support troops included a mountain artillery battery, a machine gun squadron, Royal Engineers, a field ambulance, and an administrative train. At its height there were 4,150 men and 4,800 camels.  three of the four battalions were disbanded in mid-1918. The 2nd Battalion was disbanded in May 1919.

There were also those from the New Zealand Mounted Rifles – Auckland Mounted Rifles, Wellington Mounted Rifles, and Canterbury Mounted Rifles. Research has found that a number of those from both the Camel Corps and Mounted Rifles, using mainly horses,  also were in the Gallipoli Campaign.  Horses and camels were a large part of the Sinai Palestine campaigns. Horses were, according to   National Army Museum NZ the "unsung heroes of WW1"

Then there were those who helped dig trenches, build roads, construct railways and unload cargo from the ships. These were the Field Engineers, the New Zealand ( Maori) Pioneer Battalion  which included the Rarotongan Contingent. These men came from Northern, Waikato, Rotorua, East Coast - Gisborne. They came from many of the Pacific Islands - Niue, Tonga, Rarotonga, Samoa. The map below shows the areas of the Sinai Palestine campaign:-

The following are lists of those who lost their lives in the Sinai Palestine campaigns, World War One - through disease, or through war action. TCDC ( Thames Coromandel District Council) has designated one of the Memorial Forests on the Coromandel Peninsula to be near Tangitaroria Lane, Pauanui - for those who lost their lives in the Sinai and Palestine, This is at the beginning of stage two of the Pauanui - Tairua cycleway. It is said that 640 trees have been planted for those who lost their lives in these campaigns. Several of the troopers had family links to the Tairua Valley.  

 The following lists are  to assist the process of knowing who lost their lives in the Sinai and Palestine Campaigns during World War One: -
