Western Front Inset: Sandhurst in "All the Dead Pilots" (Location)

The Royal Military Academy Sandhurst, in Surrey, England, is where the British Army trains all of its officers and some from other nations. It dates to 1720 and has great prestige, both in Britain and abroad. In "All the Dead Pilots," it serves as a shorthand for Spoomer's upper-class status and family history. For our purposes, Sandhurst also serves as the location for the club of Spoomer's uncle, a brigadier general, and the ground school to which Spoomer is transferred.
