Just a quick question. What does the s in front of army number represent.
Hello Margaret,
Traditionally this was given as the soldier had enlisted for the duration of the war, however it now appears that the Black Watch used the S number series to denote that the soldier had gone into one of the new Service or Labour Battalions, the 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th battalions:
8th formed August 1914, disbanded November 1919
9th formed September 1914, disbanded May 1918
10th formed September 1914, disbanded October 1918
11th formed November 1914, disbanded spring 1920
12th formed May 1916, disbanded May 1917.
Hope this helps.
