Lieutenant-Colonel Thomas Malcolm Harvey Kincaid-Smith (6 July 1874 – 31 December 1938), known as Malcolm Kincaid-Smith was a British Liberal politician and soldier. Commissioned into the 9th Lancers, he was promoted from second lieutenant to lieutenant in 1895. Kincaid-Smith was seconded for Colonial Office service in 1898. After returning from secondment, he was a supernumerary lieutenant until 1900, and was promoted captain in 1903. He went on half-pay in 1904 due to ill health and resigned his commission in 1908. Kincaid-Smith was elected as Member of Parliament for Stratford-on-Avon in 1906. In 1909, he resigned his seat and left the Liberal Party to advocate compulsory military training. He stood as an independent, supported by the National Service League, at the ensuing by-election, but was badly defeated. Upon the outbreak of World War I, he was recalled from the reserve and appointed a staff officer. He was made an assistant provost-marshal in 1915, holding the post for a year. He was made a temporary major in the Wiltshire Regiment, and then a temporary lieutenant-colonel while commanding a school of instruction and a musketry camp in 1917. In 1918, Kincaid-Smith was transferred to command of a reception camp as a temporary major. He stood for the National Party in 1918, but was defeated. He left the reserves due to age in 1929. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Thomas Kincaid-Smith」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
