		The Department and the Corps served through the South African War and, as a result of their efforts in the 1914/18 War, were, in 1920, independently awarded the prefiX "Royal".
		Some of the present-day duties of the Royal Army Pay Corps are as old as soldiering itself, as the derivation of the word indicates.
		These changes in pay administration permitted soldiers to be progressively educated in personal financial matters, beginning with payment of their emoluments into commercial banking accounts of their choice, in much the same way as officers.

	Army Pay (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		By the time of the American War of Independence, the pay of a private in a regiment of foot was widely recognized to be completely inadequate.
		Basically, the British soldier had to pay for the food he ate, the clothes on his back, and cover the cost of loss or damage to his equipment.
		The main difference between the British soldier’s pay and that of a soldier of the Continental army was that although the British rates were low, the few coins they were paid were worth something rather than practically worthless paper.

		Lieutenant M.E. Clifton James was at his desk at the Royal Army Pay Corps in 1944, when he received a telephone call from film star Colonel David Niven, who was serving with the army Kinematograph section during the Second World War.
		The call was the first thread in an elaborate web of deception intended to draw attention away from the imminent Allied invasion of Europe.
		Under conditions of the utmost secrecy, James was posted as a Sergeant of the Intelligence Corps to Monty's staff so that he could study the general's voice, gestures and mannerisms: the way he saluted, for example, clasped his hands behind his back, or pinched a little roll of his cheek when thinking.
