Angus Wilson

Trooper · NZ #1390

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. A BUSHMAN in civilian life — a trade this roll has not carried before. He embarked as a TROOPER with the FIRST ECHELON (2NZEF Nominal Roll 1, p.197); the record cites Loughnan’s “Divisional Cavalry” among its sources. Source: Auckland War Memorial Museum Online Cenotaph, record C143030.
