Jack “Zucky, Mann” Zuckermann

Signalman · ME/2551817

What this roll records

A NOTE ON THE MIDDLE EAST SERIES NUMBER (2026, revised). This card’s number is in the ME/ series, and so is that of Mann, Jack on this roll — ME/255181 and ME/2551817, which differ by a single trailing digit. An earlier version of this note treated that as possibly a transcription event. IT IS BEING SOFTENED, because the reason for the prefix has since been established: THE ME/ SERIES WAS ISSUED TO MEN WHO ENLISTED LOCALLY IN THE MIDDLE EAST. Jack Mann was born in Cairo in 1925 and joined the Army there. Once that is known, two locally enlisted men holding neighbouring numbers in a small local series is ordinary rather than remarkable, and no inference should be drawn from it.
