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.
Online Cenotaph record found in August 2026. HIS SECOND FORENAME IS JOHN. AND HIS CIVILIAN OCCUPATION WAS EVANGELIST — not a trade this roll records for anyone else. He embarked as a PRIVATE with Infantry Reinforcements, Third Echelon (2NZEF Nominal Roll 3, p.207). Source: Auckland War Memorial Museum Online Cenotaph, record 119277.
