- Jewish Legions gramophone record with recording of Ze'ev Jabotinsky and John H. Patterson on the subject of Jewish battalions; New York. John Patterson (1867-1947) commander of the "Zion Mule Corps" and later commander of the "38th Battalion of the Royal Fusiliers" was a lifelong supporter of the Zionist Movement. After his military service he maintained friendships with his battalion colleagues, including Ze'ev Jabotinsky, who became his close friend.
