Wills's Cigarettes - Soldiers of the World - 1895.

British Maj Anderson and Rev Maclean & soldiers from the 1st Battalion the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders in front of the St. Andrews Church in Jerusalem 26th May 1940. they took part in battles of allies in Ethiopia (1941), Crete (1941), Libya (1941-1942) and Italy (1943-1945). St Andrew’s Church, Jerusalem, was built as a memorial to the Scottish soldiers who were killed fighting the Turkish Army during World War I, bringing to an end Ottoman rule over Palestine. It is a congregation of the Church of Scotland. One the main campaigners for the memorial church was Ninian Hill, an Edinburgh shipowner and Church elder. The foundation stone was laid by Field Marshal Lord Allenby on 7 May 1927 and the church was opened in 1930 with Ninian Hill as its first minister. The Church was much used by Scots serving in the Mandate administration and soldiers serving with Scottish Regiments stationed in Palestine during the Mandate and the Second World War. After the out break of hostilities in 1948 the church was on the front line. Firstly between Jewish forces in West Jerusalem and Palestinian irregulars in the Old City, later between the Jordanian Arab Legion soldiers and the Israeli army. The minister, William Clark Kerr, remained in the Church throughout this period, ringing the church bell and conducting Sunday services. In one cable to Edinburgh he wrote: "All night battle round the building. St Andrew's Cross (flag) on both church and manse. If that is not enough will try Rampant Lion. Services are held every Sunday at 10am and there is a guest house providing accommodation for visitors.
