He received his first commission as a lieutenant in the East Surrey Regiment on 10 May 1882, served during the Nile Expedition in 1885, and was promoted to captain on 20 November 1888. Taking part in the Mahdist War between 1897 and 1898, he was present at the battles of Atbara (April 1898) and Omdurman (September 1898). With the outbreak of the Second Boer War in South Africa in late 1899, he was appointed a Special Service Officer and served as such from 1899 to 1900, and later on the Staff following his promotion to major on 11 December 1901.[3] The war ended in June 1902, and he left Cape Town in the SS Plassy in August, returning to Southampton the following month.[4] For his service during the war, he was mentioned in despatches, received the Queen's South Africa Medal with four clasps, and was appointed a Companion of the Distinguished Service Order (DSO). After his return, he was appointed Deputy Assistant Adjutant-general at Bermuda. He later served during the First World War, between 1914 and 1918.[1] Son-in-law of Archibald Lucius Douglas.[5] Sloman was invested at a Companion of the Distinguished Service Order in 1901, and as a Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George in 1918.[6][7] He retired from the British Army in 1918 and died on 29 December 1945.[8] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.ukwhoswho.com/view/article/oupww/whowaswho/U231853/SLOMAN_Brig.-Gen._Henry_Stanhope?index=1&results=QuicksearchResults&query=0|title=Who's Who|publisher=}} {{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Sloman, Henry Stanhope}}2. ^The Ousel, Vol. XLII, No.701, 17 December 1938, p.375 3. ^Hart′s Army list, 1903 4. ^{{Cite newspaper The Times |articlename=The Army in South Africa - Troops returning home |day_of_week=Tuesday |date=26 August 1902 |page_number=4 |issue=36856| }} 5. ^Page 125 - The-VC-and-DSO-Volume-II 6. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.thegazette.co.uk/Edinburgh/issue/11296/page/467/data.pdf|date=13 June 2006|title=THE EDINBURGH GAZETTE, APRIL 23, 1901|accessdate=2014-11-20}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/30721/supplement/6514/data.pdf|date=22 August 2002|title=6514 SUPPLEMENT TO THE LONDON GAZETTE, 3 JUNE, 1918 CANADIAN FORCE|accessdate=2014-11-20}} 8. ^The Times, 1 January 1946, p.1 10 : 1861 births|1945 deaths|People educated at Bedford School|British Army personnel of World War I|British Army personnel of the Second Boer War|Companions of the Order of St Michael and St George|Companions of the Distinguished Service Order|British Army generals|People educated at Sherborne School|People from Pembroke Dock |
