In July 1941 the first British volunteer force was set up by John Amery. The British Free Corps was founded at the former RMA Sandhurst on July 26th, with 80 volunteers attending. The Corps was recognised by the SS as a training formation in September, when Sandhurst was renamed the J.F.C. Fuller training school. By that time the unit consisted of nearly 300 men, most of whom were former members of the BUF. Amery himself went through training, and was given the rank of Hauptsturmfuhrer and served as acting commander of the unit.
