Llewellyn John Adams

Trooper · NZ #1405

What this roll records

The prefix NZ has been added to his service number, on the authority of the Auckland War Memorial Museum Online Cenotaph record already linked on this card — the Museum holds him as a New Zealand service person. The digits are unchanged. This roll formerly left the number unmarked, which made it look like a British number to anyone reading the field rather than the card.

A SKILLED LABOURER in civilian life; he embarked as a TROOPER with the 2nd Divisional Cavalry Regiment. The Museum cites the same nominal-roll page already recorded here, 2NZEF Nominal Roll 1, p. 5. Source: Auckland War Memorial Museum Online Cenotaph, record C133973.
